Hey, let me drunkenly animate your photos in about 25 to 60 days!

After working on one like that for a couple of hours it's tough to tell if it's any good or just a waste of time, so glad you like it! :)

scary how good these are getting.

looooooooooool

and re: digitalsolutions I've been following for a while now, consistently excellent stuff

the filesize limit for gifs on tumblr (~500kb) really sucks. here's the real version:

here's what i have to post on tumblr:

hey Z S what do you do to "make a gif more lossy thus making it a smaller file size" btw i use this stupid program called ULead Animated Gif Maker 5 so maybe thats my problem

cool pyramid gifs too

also a few recent ones

i pretty much just use photoshop, and when you save gifs in photoshop there's a whole window full of options...lemme get a screenshot...

http://i53.tinypic.com/2le3iw.jpg

so obv the "lossy" slider is a big factor (0 to 100), but the number of colors makes a big difference too, and the dither. I had dither at 0 in that screenshot, but if I would have had it at 100 that would have been the "max" quality. Whereas lossy at 100, dither at 0, and colors at like 4 or 8 is pretty much the bare minimum.

i've noticed that a lot of people's "thing" on tumblr is to turn the quality all the way down on everything. like, here's an ultra-lossy version of something i posted earlier today:

ok

can i open existing animated gifs in photoshop?

nope. it'll just open them up as one frame. so if you want to mess around with an existing animated gif in photoshop you have to split the frames up into separate images using another program and then import them into photoshop, one layer at a time. it's a giant pain in the ass and everytime photoshop comes out with a new version i really hope they address it.

^^^this gif is so awesome!

I hope that is what the afterlife looks like.

that's Double Tents by Paul Klee (1923), and I hope to head to my local library soon to pick up a book of his stuff because I love it! He apparently helped to develop a lot of modern color theory.

hey Z S where's the best place to start w/ color theory.

(plz dont point me to an ILX thread about teal and orange)

you should ask abbbottt that! i just mentioned it because i know she's interested in color theory and is pretty much a pro. i, on the other hand, am the kind of person who needs to take 15-20 seconds to remember what color red and blue combine to create.

I am trying to get into this too. Ppl have told me to start w/ Albers' "Interaction of Color"

my boyfriend wants you to animate some of the "pictures of famous people" pics from that thread but he can't remember which ones

there are so many amazing pictures on that thread. i was working on nancy reagan + mr. T/Santa Claus about an hour ago but i gave up because i couldn't think of any way to improve it

z s you are phenomenally talented

Absolutely loving the real deal pyramids one.
Last Sat. was my birthday and I dropped some acid to celebrate and I swear I spent 10 minutes staring at the Klee one near the end of my trip. It was a joyous 10 minutes.

Z S you are a genius

lxy!!

ya'll are way too nice.

that's funny, though, fetchboy, because that Paul Klee one reminds me of my last, awful trip, a few years ago, where i ended up staring at the inside of my drawn blinds at sunset for about half an hour, freaking myself out into thinking that 1)hell existed and 2)i had discovered the portal. every once in a while someone on tumblr leaves a comment like "i'm saving this one for when i'm shroomin' next weekend!" and i think "if i contribute to yr freakout i am so so sorry"!
