nah i just got overexcited when i first found an animation editor so userfriendly and free and sat there for 4 hours drawing first the set then editing each frame-copy paste it -edit to next frame -copy past- edit to next frame etc. boring as hell i only ever made one long one after that.



i see your 'inkwell' is really an f14 morpheus, nice works furball.

you dont need fancy photoshop skills to make avatars. check out this signature i made for another forum. i did it by cutting and pasting images then adding in other stuff.

Hey, thanks one and all for the info.  I'm still not sure exactly what all the parameters are, but I'll experiment and find that out.  I've got basic Photoshop, not sure about any animation feature though.  But I'm going to look up some of the links given, etc.  I guess I should add that I was looking for the most inexpensive solution as this is just going to be an occasional thing.  I don't expect to be doing alot of such work.
With one exception.  How would these tools and/or the process relate to designing nose art?  I want to take JG-3 signature graphic and try to shrink it down to usable size as nose art.
Anyway, thanks for the responses.

Glomed it from the Intardnet and used Macromedia Fireworks to edit it.

If you create a pic and shrink it to size (or shrink a given pic), blur it a bit before you resize.... looks better.
