So for this tutorial let's make a "good
luck" animation
Open up Jasc animation shop from PSP 8
-
In animation shop open the animations
G O D Lt Ut Ct Kt, they will fill the page but do not worry.
You will need to copy animation O so select first frame of that
animation and using the shift key and arrow right key highlight
all the frames.
Click and
then
You now have all the animations ready
to work on.
Drag across to a free space animations
G and Lt
Zoom in by using the middle wheel on your mouse to frames F4
on each animation.
Click on the registration
mark (third button along as illustrated here)
Click onto the corners of frame 4 of both animations , if you
do not get it right first time just click again
It should look like this
If you look carefully
you can see the mark in the top left hand corner where the images
have to line up
It is important
that these marks are correct.
Click
on arrow button (first button as illustrated here)
Click on frame 1 of Lt (Top animation as above) and with shift
and arrow right key highlight all.
Now the good bit! Drag frame one of Lt down onto frame one of
G and release - a new animation is created. Make sure that you
dragged from frame one to frame one , if it went wrong just
click the top of each animation and click the undo button (First
one below)
Check that the animation works
Delete the empty frame strip and repeat combining - 0 and Ut
- O and Ct - D and Kt
Open up the blank animation from the bricks folder (Or make
an eight frame blank yourself) and drag the GL combined animation
close to it
Highlight all the GL animation (shift plus arrow right key)
and drag down frame 1 into frame one of blank, aligning
nicely with checkered background. Repeat with the other finished
bricks so that you end up with something like this.
By right clicking frames 4 and then 8 you can modify the display
time on those frames
Crop animation to size
(Fourth button in)
save
as best quality on pointer, click customize button and on partial
transparency tab use these settings
Give it a file name and save it to a folder
