I've firmed up my idea for an avatar and sig. They both require two levels of 2 seconds each and a soft fade at each switching point. GIMP should do it if the GAP(animation toolkit) comes with it. Anyone familiar with this? DRB

Ask egg, he might know. He's rather nifty with the animation.Quote:

Now that you've picked your color, you go pick a tool (eg. a brush) as soon as you click on the tool, the color information goes away and no easy way to get it back. ( no apparent way to dip the brush into the color you've spent all that time choosing). Also, I cant figure out how to tell gimp that I'm done with a particular action or the project. ( you cant put the tool away w/o choosing another tool). Each time you finally work your way through one of these quirks, Life gets a whole lot easier, but some of these things that should be apparently "easy" can really have you pulling your hair out! DRB
BTW- I did this signature with the Gimp. DRB
