Do you have a photo program on your computer that can make picture files into a slide show ?

I use a photo shop program to get photos shrunk down to proper pixel size and then use a little program called Ulead Gif Animator . Cheap little program that does all kinds of flips flops etc. Got it a number of years ago... am sure there are more out there now.

It looks like ULEAD is a 15 day trial priced at $39 currently. But it's only rated 2 1/2 stars.

I'd go to Amazon and shop the used graphics programs first. Why not get the whole package with all the bells and whistles - even if it is a year or two old? I've been using the same programs for over five years now.

I hope this works for you - if not, we can tweak it some.



In fact i AM tweaking on it - stand by a sec....

It was cycling through too fast, so I changed the speed. When you view this, click refresh to make sure it's right.

If that looks good to you (and thats a fine and pretty lady you have there!) right click and save as something you can load up at FTE as your representation of you!

I guarantee it fits the avatar specs!

~Wolf out

PS: I can slow it down more if you want.

Wolf, type out the instructions for the process with the programs required and post it. We can then file this down in the Gallery forum.
