my third tutorial with GIMP

palalula — Tue, 26 Jul 2005 16:33:32 GMT

1.take a animated gif

open it, unoptimize animation (filter>animation>unoptimize) and transform in RGB mode

2.take a image you want to use as background (I picked mine on sxc.hu)
and crop it in a 100x100 icon base, add border adjust colors add border use textures , all you like

3.now return working on the first image,

resize the canvas of the image to 100x100
make sure to place the gif animation in it's final position (you can adjust it later with layer alignement but I don't know how :-(

4.copy the background image on a new layer and make it the lowest layer

5. now the boring part:
erase the white background of every ukulele girl with fuzzy selection tool and Ctrl-K

that's why I should have choosen a n animation with less frames!

6. now make a sandwich of frames duplicating the background layer and merge each animated frame (the ukulele girl) with a copy of the base frame

7. now optimize the animation for GIF , if you want a image of fewer Kb and save as a GIF

there are a few imperfection in my final ikon (look at the feet urgh) but I'm pleased how it turned out
well I can fix the layer with the fading feet another time

glittery text tutorial

palalula — Sun, 24 Jul 2005 16:28:40 GMT

make this glitter effect on text inspired by this entry (sorry all english is not my primary)language
http://www.livejournal.com/community/icon_tutorial/1912861.html

so take one pattern of blinkies, as suggested by touchofdust (check the link above for more blinkies , scrool down that page)
such as this one

if you need to do a image no bigger than the blinkie

you may want to follow the step 1 of this tutorial and then skip directly to step 4 (and be sure to work in RGB it comes out better)

1. you open the pattern , notice it has a number of layers (3 in this case)
and it's better to unoptimize the animation first (filters>animation>unoptimize) and work with the unoptimized file

2.save each level as a separate image in a GIMP pattern folder wth numbers as file names to remember in wich order they were, reload patterns to make them appear between your patterns

3.open a new file the size you will need for your text or bigger ,you can always crop it later.
make 2 other layers in this new file and fill them with your 3 different patterns

4.now make your text, you need to make negative text: so using selection fill the outside of text and clear the inside. YOu need to have transparent text. (I hope you all know how text tool works)

5.copy the text layer 2 times e make a layer "sandwich" such this one

6. merge down each text layer with a pattern layer

7. save as gif (chose to save animation!) (you could optimize for gif before saving it)
