GIF Directions for the Faint of Heart (Ally? Code?? lol)
I used the Paint program on my laptop for those that have Windows .... it's not as fun as TuxPaint, but I think Paint comes on all Windows computers (under "Accessories"). Any basic drawing program will work (Mac users.. what is yours called again?) so..... Step 1 -- open Paint program. Pick what you want to draw with. I picked the "brush" located on the left of screen. Choose a color down at the bottom of the screen. Splooosh a shape or line on there.  Step 2 -- Save the first one (nevermind that I have a typo in my file name... lol) ---- make a folder to hold your drawings in named something like ... oh, I dunno... "1AParintToot" LOL No? Okay, something easier then. Make a second drawing. I like to draw on the first one, erase (there is a little eraser icon on the left tool box) the first one and "Save As" a new file name. {Numbers are good. Simple and easy to understand)  Step 3 -- Keep splooshing butterflies (or whatever you like) and saving as new files.  Step 4 -- After you have a few drawings (up to 10 using Picasion) you can "view" it as a filmstrip on Windows (does Mac do this?) [btw, I've obviously discovered my silly file name in this screenshot and renamed the file. lol)  Step 5 -- Go to Picasion.com. On the first page there, click on "Browse" and go to your file with the spiffy drawings. Upload the first one. Go to the second "Browse" and upload. After three, you have the option to "Add One More Picture" and repeat that until all your drawings are uploaded. Down at the bottom of the Picasion upload page is a box: [Create Animation] .... that's what you click on to make the GIF.  Step 6 -- You end up on this Picasion page with the option : "HTML code to post on your blog (copy&paste):"  if you copy that and paste it into a comment here.... well, we have a movie!! Yay!  Create animated gif I'll do more on using TuxPaint if anyone is interested in that too?? ******************************************************* I'm hooked on GIF making. I have been using a drawing program for kids called TuxPaint. It's a free, open source program :::...::. http://www.tuxpaint.org/ or... a clickable link to Tux Paint **make a small drawing and save, add something to the drawing and save a new file. Repeat until you have a few drawings. Go to "Picasion" at http://picasion.com/ clickable link: Picasion-Creat GIF animation and upload the drawings. click on "create animation" button. I'll add more info on these later. :o) _____________________________ Well, that was pretty Smart of me not to put the Year on these dates, wasn't it? LOL! okay, okay.... it's now Officially Ant Watching Season. Let the season begin. No new ant hill photos but I'm watching 'em. (keeping an eye on the lizards too) *************************************************** August 31 :::..:::.. I was out early this morning looking at clouds and checking on the ants and ... Wow! The ants are building heart-shaped hills!?!! This was the most symmetrical one but at least four were heart-shaped. Well, don't you agree this is a sign? ok... back to picking up yard stuff and getting ready for some wind and rain... :o)
I'm inspired by all the tributes to Dads on Father's Day to add one of my own. Sunday is the day that I spend with my father usually. It gives us a chance to catch up of things we don't cover by daily phone calls (and he sometimes has chores for me to do like flipping the mattress or changing light bulbs.. lol). So for me, every Sunday is Father's Day.This is one of my favorite photos of Dad. I'm the shortest one, looking up. and even though I don't have to "l...
