Just playing with new skills on Macromedia Fireworks...



Give you any ideas?

Yeah....

It gives me the idea that I still want a Farscape one. ;)
I mean, since you seem to be bored a lot. A Winnie the Pooh one might be cool too.

Apparently email notifications weren't working the other day:
Here is an Aeryn userpic.

Query...

What can people like me who don't have a lot of flashy software use to shrink an animated gif down to LJ size, so that it's still animated? When I tried, Opus didn't move anymore. :(

I really don't know. You need to have a program that handles animations in order to resize an animation, and that narrows it down to Animation Shop (shareware), Adobe Imageready (part of Photoshop), Fireworks, or GIF Animator (shareware). No freebie resizes animations that I'm aware of. MS GIF Animator (once freely available and now hard to find) would create them, but not resize them.

So, perhaps I could just send it to my good friend Gary, and have him shrink it for me. :)

That would work.

Just playing with old hardware...

I used Ulead MediaStudio to make an avi, from a video. I gotta find stuff that runs smoother.

Video clips

I've noticed that you can only get about 10 or 15 frames of video in a userpic, so it's tough to get something that looks decent. Doesn't stop people from asking for them, though.
