How to make an Animated GIF in Photoshop

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Many assume the way to pronounce GIF is with a hard G sound because G is for Graphic. The inventor of the file format requested it be pronounced with a soft G so the it sounds like the peanut butter (Jif). Please don’t correct me on my pronunciation as I will simply remove your comment.
www.markgaler.com
In just five minutes you can easily make an animated GIF in Adobe Photoshop.
You can then share by attaching the GIF to emails, post to websites or social media sites such as Tumblr You can even copy the Image URL and paste to your status in Facebook.

    The creators of the format pronounced the word as "jif" with a soft "G" /dʒɪf/ as in "gym". Steve Wilhite says that the intended pronunciation deliberately echoes the American peanut butter brand Jif, and CompuServe employees would often say "Choosy developers choose GIF", spoofing this brand's television commercials.

    Just to add a piece of helpful advice!! When I first tried this I couldn't figure out how to get the timeline display, and it wasn't mentioned in this video but all you have to do is go to Window (in the top toolbar near View and Help) --> Workspace --> Motion. Then the timeline bar should appear at the bottom

Yours is perfectly clear and short - I really appreciate you taking the time to make it and wish I had come across it first!

    The guy who made this video & or who is narrating it, is saying the letter G improperly. Obviously. He doesn't know you pronounce the letter G as in Glad or the word "Gift" without the letter T at the end of the word. He doesn't know & or realize it's not pronounced like the letter J. I know, I know.... Potato, Potoddo, .... Tomato, Tomotto.

    Hi! Is there a small function button, that crops a bit the image, based on the focus? Someone told me there is this trick, for photos that are not done with a tripod, so there is a small camera motion mainly a bit to the right, or a bit to the left, or a bit to high. SO the gif looks...not that good. But is somehow, photoshop could sense this difference, and crop a bit, it think it will solve the problem. But I do not know if there is such a thing...
