Animated GIF's

[bjc]

I am delighted to see that Animated GIF's are now enabled in PTE.

About ten years ago I went through a phase of generating "AniGifs". So,,, having just downloaded v.6.5 (Beta) I thought I would dig out some of these old animations and see how they worked in PTE.

The linked file (below) is a compilation of 7 AniGifs, put together as a slideshow ~ which I thought I would share with you, on the off chance that some of you might enjoy seeing them.

Hi bjc,

One other quick observation. Since PTE now supports animated GIF files, it's quite possible to use tools such as Xara 3D and Xara Xtreme to create really neat animated 3D text for headers, etc. Of course if you have Photoshop CS5 Extended you can also extrude text to create 3D and do the same, but Xara 3D is very inexpensive, has three adjustable lights, an amazing array of fonts and exports animated GIF as well as PNG, etc., so a great tool to take advantage of this new feature.

Best regards,

Lin
