Post the One-Hundred and Ninety-Seventh - Tin Man Author Icons

[nestar]

Gha!!!!

All I wanted to do was make a simple animated icon. I've done this before.Make the stills, put them in order, save as a .gif file. But for some reason Image Ready won't save as a .gif!

*points to icon*
We'll start this.
*nods*

And that page looks very pretty... *heliotrope very much like*

[n-e-star.livejournal.com]

and now the code monkeys are after me.

[erinm-4600.livejournal.com]

anything I can do to help?

[n-e-star.livejournal.com]

I think the only ones who can help me are named Ben and Jerry.

Comp stupidness + board meeting (same old shit)= headache for me.

And there is no ice cream.

Why is all the ice cream gone?!

[erinm-4600.livejournal.com]

I just -TOTALLY- had a thought at the Wendy's drive-up
(aka another reason Erin needs to stay our of her car)
and thought of you...

But I fear telling you about it, as you have enough to do....

*snerk*

[n-e-star.livejournal.com]

I got a thought too.



Now tell me yours!

Tell me, tell me, tell me! ::bounces::

I was listening to a song *gives you a moment for the SHOCK to wear off* and thought:

'Huh, that would be a good song for DG. Could work for River, too.' Then pictures all the Princesses sitting around a room and thought:

'Wait. Padme's dead. Wouldn't work. Unless she's a ghost. But, wait. Obi-Wan and Anakin were at the meeting, so-'

The Rogues have a support group. Do the Princesses have a slumber party?

o.O

*hears Colm Feore*
These are things I need to know...

I've been seeing T'Pol leading a yoga group. "The insanity is part of my mate. I will embrace the insanity my mate lives in. I will see the man behind the madness."

[erinm-4600.livejournal.com]

I know that's Trek... but that's it....

[sar-kaz-m.livejournal.com]

*gasp*
OMG that's brilliant!
*falls over laughing*

[erinm-4600.livejournal.com]

and forgive me for my muse slipping out when I was talking the fresh Caingerbread out of the oven. I didn't realize it'd get to yours so fast and pass on the message. *glares at muse*

Had another one -technically two, maybe three- this morning:

1. Was pondering Crichton at the 'we have to keep track of crazy girls' meeting, and Chiana's trying to get inside the meeting because there's Jayneboys. Which led to:

2. The 'I work with puppets' group (for Han, Obi-Wan, Crichton, the Doctor and Jareth), but leaves out Cain, Indy and Mal. Which led to:

3. The 'I travel with a hairy sidekick' group (for Han, Crichton, Logan and Cain), but leaves out Indy and Mal. Which led to:

4. Crichton can technically attend the Princess meeting because technically he's married to one...

...okay. Four.

Seriously... I need to stay away from my car.

[n-e-star.livejournal.com]

Oh, I've been trying to come up with a girls group for awhile.

4. Yeah, but Crichton could use the "I just married her to save the world" excuse that Muad'Dib did to get out of it.

2. Just for you sweets, in the next story Jareth will have a... well, it's not really a walk on role. You'll see.

and 5. I still haven't found a way to work in Rick O'Connell!

Also, I think I love your car.

[erinm-4600.livejournal.com]

4. Yeah yeah... but he still fits the qualifications.

o.O ...Yeah...

2. Eep! :D

5. Well, Evie was Nefertiti in her past life... and there could be a sub-meeting for guys who've dealt with an overload of information from a source that was supposed to remain hidden (Crichton, Mal, Nine, Logan) or a you-just-had-to-touch-it-didn't-you? (the Doctor, Crichton, Cain)

His name is PJ - and he loves you, too. Will send a photo asap

[erinm-4600.livejournal.com]

#5 How about this:

FFoPI - Friends and Family of Possessed Individuals

Could cover Rick, Crichton, Cain, Indy, Logan the Doctor and -by default of 'a planet made me do it'- Mal

:)

And PJ: *who's in cahoots with Steve*

[buffybot76.livejournal.com]

I like them! ^_^

[n-e-star.livejournal.com]

Thanks.

If you want to use them go ahead, just let me know which ones you're taking.

[buffybot76.livejournal.com]

Thanks. Will do! ^_^

ooo, there's a icon with my name on it! *weeeeeeeeeee*

i might have to snag just the first one to be fair.... for my fic journal. :)

[erinm-4600.livejournal.com]

*ahem*

Where is the one that says: I Fangirl n_e_star??

Seriously?

[n-e-star.livejournal.com]

[erinm-4600.livejournal.com]

*flails*

consider it taken!! :D

[moony-blues.livejournal.com]

Aww! *huggles* *more huggles*

<----Is speechless....

[magickboxgirl.livejournal.com]

I feel so special and am snagging them

[moony-blues.livejournal.com]

Is it that you need .gif images for this to work? If that's all, I can convert them for you...

[n-e-star.livejournal.com]

The way I learned to make animated icons was in Adobe Image Ready.

Once you had the icon done, you would save it as a .gif file.

I HAVE DONE THIS BEFORE!!!!!

But now, when I have Image Ready open, there is NO way to save as .gif

[moony-blues.livejournal.com]

Hmm...so having the individual icons as a .gif wouldn't work...let me play around with the GIMP. It's got some animation capabilities. I'd have to play with the layers to get it just right. Let me see what I can come up with.

[moony-blues.livejournal.com]

Mischief Managed!

[n-e-star.livejournal.com]

That rocks!

But it's over the 40kb limit LJ has. poo!

I just need to kick my IR 'till it works.

[moony-blues.livejournal.com]

Hmm...let me tinker a little more...

[moony-blues.livejournal.com]

Ok...I can't decrease the file size without first deceasing the file size of the original images (which will really degrade the picture quality...they'll be unreadable). Sorry... D:

How did I miss saying thank you?


Thank you!!!!
