ash48*hands* I am done searching!
Can anyone recommend a good tutorial on making gifs for tumblr using a Mac. I found lots for PC, but Mac seems harder to find (this baffles me completely!).
I need it from capturing (and the best program for that) through to making the gif. Photoshop is cool, I just need to be shown (or told) how to.
I will crack this dammit!
Thank you if anyone can assist. <333

With GIF brewery you can make movie files directly into GIFs, so all you need is a a program to shorten your movies to workable sections beforehand
Okay that wasn't a tutorial but app suggestions at any rate ; )

Date: 2013-04-12 01:03 pm (UTC)It keeps zooming in on a small part of the clip when I make the gif. It makes no sense to me. everything works well until I go to make the gif and then random close up..

Date: 2013-04-12 02:38 pm (UTC)Have a look around Tumblr, I've followed quite a few pretty gifs back to their original poster and seen side bar links to tutorials, most I've seen are in Photoshop. I can't help with that as I don't have Photoshop - one of the best things I think with Photoshop is the 'input to layers' option, only time I've ever tried a gif I've had to screencap each frame and then import each one and that takes forever!
Best of luck hon!

Date: 2013-04-12 02:42 pm (UTC)The program I've downloaded seems to be working ok. Now I'm just playing with the quality. This reminds me of when I started vidding and trying out a gazzillion different codecs to see which one would give me the smallest file with the highest quality.
Photoshop would be the most flexible and I reeeeaaaally have to get with the program. No matter how many times I use it I keep forgetting what I have to do to make stuff work!
I shall overcome! (one day...;/)
