Title: Animated Userbars
Post by: marklund on November 11, 2005, 05:28:35 PM

[span style=\'color:WHITE\'][span style=\'font-size:14pt;line-height:100%\']Is your sig full of userbars?[/span]
Keep them in one 350x19px gif!

1. Open up Imageready.

2. Paste in the bars you want, into different layers, like this:

3. Create the amount of frames as the amount of bars you have. In my case I got 3 bars, so therefore I'll have 3 frames.
Make sure to change the delay to 1 sec, to get a good result.

4. On each frame, make one new layer visible, and leave the others invisible.

5. And you're done! Save it as a .gif and watch your result.

[span style=\'font-size:14pt;line-height:100%\'][span style=\'color:red\']Optional tween[/span][/span] [span style=\'color:WHITE\']

6. If you want to make a tween in the animation, make another frame. It must be the exact copy of the first frame.

7. Change the delay on every frame to No Delay.

8. Choose the second frame, and press the tween button. In that menu, make sure it's tweened with the previous frame and that it has 15  frames to add.

9. Do the same with the other ones, except the first one. Do not tween the new frames.

10. You're done!
