Animated SU avatars;



Collect some avi's of your Friends, save to pc in a folder,
Open Photoshop, click File/Automate, choose Contact Sheet II,
choose 'Source Images' = Folder,
accept remaining defaults or adjust as required,
Photoshop now makes your pic,
Resize to 640 or less if you want to put it on SU,
Repeat the whole process with some more avi's,
Select All of the 2nd pic and Copy,
click on your first pic and Paste the 2nd pic,
Make a mask of the SU logo,
Click Window/Animation,
duplicate the thumbnail in Animation, then in Layers pallette,
hide layer 1, show layer 2, this will echo in Animation so you have to thumbnails one for each pic,
now goto File/ choose 'Save for Web'

need any more info, just say.

2 -> You've gone and ruined it for me now. I thought the people who made those pics pasted every avi in one by one. It's almost as bad as finding out Penn and Teller didn't really catch those bullets in their mouths.
