# To be fair this was easy as I have thousands of images like this
from my summer project
I just had to cut out most of them to get it down to size, It could have been alot clearer, as the camera I used took 3000 FPS for it

# Looking at nucleation. It was quite boring and repetetive.
Ive filled a 120gig HD with these sequences.
But there are some where the droplet doesnt penetrate and bounces around a bit. If I can be arsed I may animate on of them

# i make the frames in photoshop
then piece them together in image ready.. but i wanna upgrade my ram and get after effects and start learning and playign around in that which will make things a lot smoother looking... or hopefully so. most times i've tried to use it i sit and look at it perplexed. lol.. but i've never made a concerted effort.

# Sounds like making frames in one software then moving on to other is the only way really (for untalented cheapskates :D)


I did have the problem with colours disappearing in gimp when imported from paint.net

# bah, don't start me on colours disappearing
i think it's down to there only being allowed at most 256 colours in a gif.

when i did the yellow face thing it still had a back ground.. brought it into image ready and once optimized you could barel see the yellowness so i then had to go bac and rub out the background :(

# Hahahaha what?!
Thats awesome!
I just dont really have the paitence or software for it really.
That ^ up there was done in paint.net and gimp
Saving each frame in paint.net then putting them together in gimp. (I really dont like gimp)

# Me neither (software/patience)
Using Paintshop Pro + Animation Shop atm. I should learn something proper, but I still wouldn't have the patience.

# I would like animation shop, where can one find it
/has vista and its not on there I think blog

# It used to come with PaintShop Pro,
then they stopped doing that so I nicked it off an old version on PSP. Looks like you could probably acquire PSP9 and get it. It's not a great program though, you're probably better off getting Adobe ImageReady or something.

# My laptop is a big fucked tho, I think I fried my ram as its constantly about 50% in use
My new Ram is getting delivered on friday mind (Mainly to play spore)
There'll be torrents for imageready, and probably tuts online wont there.

# I reckon so
I'm not sure if ImageReady is still made though, there might be a better program these days!

# the voice of experience says yes :)
although i got mine in a cs2 pack

which is the newest version of image ready as it's functions have been put into photoshop cs3 so I'm told... but i aint been bothered to upgrade.
