It is great, but why did you killed the Snow Man ? I felt sooo bad, I had Luigi rebuild him. |

My new avatar started out with only a few frames but playing with gif files is so addicting by the time I had it to this point I'm over 100 frames. Maybe I'll give cartooning a shot using Gimp.
For some strange reason the avatar is not playing correctly in my browser. I right-clicked on it and chose "View image", it still wasn' playing correctly, so I changed the suffix from .jpg to .gif and it displayed correctly. http://i49.tinypic.com/260d9bo.gif The suffix is the only difference because I downloaded the avatar to see what was wrong with it and it wouldn't open in the GIMP until I changed the suffix to .gif. A lot of hard work went into that image, its a pity not to have it displaying correctly. Paul |

Hey Paul, I have to watch too when I download and open files sometimes with Gimp. Those 3 letters in the suffix sure do make a difference and once in a while Gimp has a mind of it's own and throws up the wrong file label. Don't know why it does that. Just have to keep an eye on it.  Bill |

Must have taken a bit of time and effort. How many layers? 144 by my count. Paul |

How many layers? 144 by my count. I think that's what I ended up with. I had about six more images that didn't get used in the final gif. It doesn't take much more than about 2 hours to complete. The trick is to draw the different poses first so you can drag them as needed to the image. I'm working on a tutorial on how I do these but God only knows when I'll get that finished. What I'd like now are suggestions for future adventures of Luigi. I've got one in the works for spring but could use more ideas. Dadster |

Maybe in the summer Luigi could be diving into a pool or something. Maybe he could be parachuting from a plane or something. Maybe he could be fishing or something. Maybe he could be on a beach with a beach umbrella/beach ball or something. Maybe he could be flying a kite or something. Now about that tutorial............  |

Way cool Dad. I'm just getting into animation. I didn't know you could do it in Gimp until yesterday I found it. Do you just save it as a gif or is there an animated gif? I broke down and bought Xara Xtreme 5 which has animation, which I have been using for the past week or so. I'm not very good in Gimp.

Do you just save it as a gif or is there an animated gif? When you save as gif, a window opens where you're asked if you want to save it animated. Check this out http://linuxgraphicsusers.com/forum/index.php?topic=1174.0 |

I really like your avatar, so I animated my tux.........but when I made him my avatar, no animation. I followed your tut on avatars and saved as animation and it works when I open it in konqueror but not in the forum, what am I missing here?
