These slide show ones are easy, the hardest part being tracking down images that will look decent in the small format. Well, that and deciding how long you want each frame to be visible. Anyone have suggestions for something more difficult to try my hand at?


Edit: It looks like LiveJournal's file size limit would translate to 9-10 frames of full color photo-type images. More compressible images such as drawings with large areas of the same color or grayscale images could allow for more frames of animation.

I usually make my animated ones a little slower so there's time to see each picture. I love the theme on this one!

Thanks for the tip, I was guesstimating values based taking apart one example. It simply didn't occure to me, for some reason, that I have a master icon maker on my freinds list with a large directory of userpics that I could take apart and see how they worked. :)

Hmm, I see that using transparencies can really help get more frames out of your KB....

It can! There are lots of fun effects you can play with. Taking things apart is good practice. I knew nothing about graphics when I started playing with Fireworks a couple of years ago, I just poked around and played.
