Adobe Image Ready: Editing animated GIFs

Post by **117** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 9:24 pm

How to pls?

Have opened an animated GIF in Image Ready, but it won't let me edit it, comes up with "Could not use the Paintbrush Tool because the content of the layer is not directly editable"

Seeing as no bugger has posted, i will. Right. I dont use image ready meself, tend to use animation shop (part of ps pro), but the usual reason for not being able to edit animations is cos the image arent rasterized.

meaning using animation shop for animated gifs is about 2000000x easier!

Yeah i use animation shop too but it is possible in paint ,but you have to make each frame separate and its a right ball ache.Best bet is to download paintshopro 7 the 30 day trail and you get animation shop with it.But iam nearly sure you can get it on its own from download.com or somewhere like that

good luck

And how do you make an animated gif transparent in Animation Shop? BTW, isn't PSP 8 out already?
