Technically do the same as when merging arrows (animation) with BASE.

Now SAVE all of this as a PROJECT to be able to access it (the layered version) later in case if you would like to change the percentage and move the bar etc.Īs you can see, the banner looks generally ready, but we still need to put the percentage and fill on each frame, so when everything is ready, merge FILL with PERCENTAGE and duplicate it to be able to combine it with each BASE. Note, that all the BASE (with animation) is at the bottom and the changeable stuff is at the top. Then select your dimensions and click OK. Just click 'File' tab and select 'New.' or simply use shortcut. SKIP IF YOU HAVE YOUR LAYERS ALREADY AND JUST WANT TO MAKE A GIF OF IT SKIP TO NEXT STEP IF YOU KNOW THE BASICS OF GIMP There's that much stuff, because I'm showing step by step, how I'm making my gifs, but if you have your layers ready (let's say you have 5 images and you want to make a gif with them to display all of them in one image file), then simply skip the first steps and check how to create a gif with your images. Requires patience (dependable on complexity)ĭon't be scared by the amount of steps and text in here.

It may take ages to create complex gifs FULL control on every single pixel, frame and timing '- though there is still the gif type file's color limit No quality loss like it happens with movie-to-gif converters (pixel~shading corruption) It's very easy (assuming, that you know the basics of using GIMP) Though I wish the answer would be 'professional' sounding, I'm actually using a simple method. Free and simple way to create awesome banners!įor the second or third time, I was asked how did I make my animated banners in my signature.
