Understated Ur-Drakon The Almighty Doer of Stuff Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I'm creating an animated GIF to advertise BoE. I finished all 11 frames, but I still need to stitch them together. Here's the frames: http://ados.ermarian.net/BoX/animad/boeadf01.bmp http://ados.ermarian.net/BoX/animad/boeadf02.bmp http://ados.ermarian.net/BoX/animad/boeadf03.bmp http://ados.ermarian.net/BoX/animad/boeadf04.bmp http://ados.ermarian.net/BoX/animad/boeadf05.bmp http://ados.ermarian.net/BoX/animad/boeadf06.bmp http://ados.ermarian.net/BoX/animad/boeadf07.bmp http://ados.ermarian.net/BoX/animad/boeadf08.bmp http://ados.ermarian.net/BoX/animad/boeadf09.bmp http://ados.ermarian.net/BoX/animad/boeadf10.bmp http://ados.ermarian.net/BoX/animad/boeadf11.bmp If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, post them here. Incidentally, I noticed that the large Vahnatai crystal from E2 is very pale on the light version of its terrain sheet. I believe that E1 and E2 had the same brightness graphics on both Windows and Mac, so those graphics don't actually have to be lightened for Windows. If you put that crystal on the green floor, it looks strange because the floor tiles are so pale compared to those around them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Niemand Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 How's this? I'm not entirely sure I'm happy with the frame timings (some of your frames are really text heavy), but it's already over 12 seconds long as it is. Also: Hooray for GifBuilder! It's UI may be terrible, but it gets the job done pretty well. Also, Quicksilver, for getting me out of the ugly spot of 'Oh, crud, those frames are bmps, not gifs', with a single command.

Understated Ur-Drakon The Almighty Doer of Stuff Posted October 16, 2009 Author Share Posted October 16, 2009 The entire animation doesn't have to be 256 colors. Each individual frame can have its own pallet, you know. Also, it's way too fast. I think it's okay if the animation is slow and long. I intended this ad for inclusion in my sig at FSM Discussion, so people will have time to see it. Thanks for trying though! I'll see if I can make it better.

Understated Ur-Drakon Celtic Minstrel Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 The text in frame 5 seems like it should perhaps be slightly smaller. Also, I don't like that it's in the Windows brightness... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Balladeer Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 The timing for the 5th frame seems a little too long and the 7th a little too short to finish reading it in one go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
