# Animation for idiots
I have a load of gifs that are frames for an animation to torment a friend with (a good cause)

I read the b3ta FAQ and downloaded fireworks and flash but cos i'm a bit 'special needs' I can't get the ferkin things to work

So can anyone recommend a package that I can import 40 consecutivly numbered frames and get a animated gif out of it? That can be operated by a window licker?

# ImageReady comes as part of Photoshop,
and has an 'Import Folder As Frames' function. Job's a Gooddun.

# open fireworks
Import
tick the 'open as animation' box
ctrl+click each image in the order you want them
click 'open', they should all appear as one animation in fireworks.
then file-export preview
Choose 'animated gif' from the drop down box.
check the anim plays correctly
export.

# Flash
is exactly what you need. Use the import function to bring them all in at once. Make sure they're consecutively numbered.

# coffee cup animator
www.tucows.com/preview/229535.html
It's a small file and easy to use
edit: also free and no banners. The disabled after 30 days thing doesn't work!

# Agif
works a treat
Get it here
Only prob is it leaves a banner on your gif until you register it.
