![]() Then we will have 10 frames with one background in "Layers." dialogīut we need to remove transparency for each iamge. Do this 10 times since we have 10 images. Instead of making duplication of background, go to "File" menu. I will briefly describe the differences in each step.Īdjust the size of the image, about 55 x 68. The steps to make Duke animation are almost the same as in the Section.1 "The Simplest" case. I used the following Duke files to make the aniamtion shown here. If you want to see your animation, put your gif for the "src" name in the simplest html code below. Choose "Save as Animation" as in the the picture below. (11) How about file type? Of course, it's gif.Įxpand the "Select File Type (GIF Image) as in the the picture below.Īt the "Save", you will have "Export File" window. Now we have "Save Image" window and I typed the name "MyFirstAnimatedGif" Go to the top menu: Filters -> Animation -> Playback. Time to check how it looks in the animation. Then "Layer Attributes" window pops up as in the picture below. To change the name, you do right mouse click on the layer and then select "Edit Layer Attributes.". Notice the unit of the time delay is in "ms". ![]() You do not have to rename them since GIMP knows what to do with the frames. (8) You can change the name of the frame and set time delay.Īs you see in the picture above, I changed the frame names to frame1 to frame5. Toggle off the eye of the bottom layer and toggle on the eye of the next layer and highlight the layer to make it current as in the picture below. Then fill the selected rectangle with "Bucket Fill Tool" as int the picture below. Select a rectangular region using "Rectangle Select Tool" from the Toolbox. (6) Let's draw someting in the Image window. Highlighted layer is in blue color as in the picture above. We can highlight a certain layer and make it current. So, it's more convenient turning off the eyes of the other layers and concentrate on the current layer. The eye indicates we see the anything on the layer. ![]() In the picture, I toggled off the eyes of the layers except the first frame which is the background. The bottom layer will be the first frame and the top layer will be the last frame in the animation Repeat it until we have 5 layers in the Layers window as in the picture below. Go to the top menu and select "Duplicate Layer" under "Layer". So, let's create 4 more layers by duplicating the background. (5) We need more layers to make frames for animation. (4) You will see some changes in the Image and Layers window. ![]() Though in the sample animation I used 50x50 for the image size, here, we can accept the image size as in the default, so hit OK. Go to the top File menu and select "New." (3) Now, it's time to create a new image. ![]() Windows -> Dockable Dialogs -> Layers or Ctrl+L. (2) If you do not see the Layers dialog, you can open it from the top menu. The main windows are the Toolbox with its Tool Options, image windows, and the Layers dialog. After you fire up GIMP, you should see three main windows. (1) Since you have GIMP installed, time to run it. It's five frame animation changing colors of tiny rectangles. The animation I made for the tutorial shown here. GIMP(GNU Image Manipulation Program) is a free software raster graphics editor. Here, I will briefly summarize how I made "My first GIF animation with GIMP". ![]()
