Animated .Gifs in Photoshop

i'd really like to know how to do this, but i seem to be incapable of teaching myself. can anyone explain it clearly and easily?

here's a cellphone pic of my ex-girlfriend's ass as payment upfront:

it's all about showing and hiding layers.

you basically copy paste your image into as many layers as there will be sequences. each layer is a step. then you adjust whatever is animated on each layer, so for instance if something moves across the image you would slightly nudge it on each one.

then you open the animation palette. make as many frames as you have layers. on each frame, make a new layer visible.

so if there are 5 layers there should also be 5 frames. Frame 1 only has layer 1 visible, frame 2 has layer 2 and so on. You can get a tad more complex with it later on.

awesome, that worked perfectly. thank you.

is there a way to make it more seamless between repeats? it's stuttering a bit every time it starts over.

try using tween

oh wow, i totally didn't know you could make animated gifs in photoshop, zole!

neither did i, and i've been using it for a couple of years

Adobe Fireworks

there's a quick option once you have the animation palette open to "create frames from layers"

you can also import video frames to layers

is there an easier way to do a hue/saturation sweep other than changing each layer by hand?

you must not be doin it right

thanks for the help. here's my first effort:

saving it degraded the shit out of the quality. is there anyway to prevent that?

Someday, you'll reach my expertise level in photoshopped gifs (see my avatar).
