Gif is the file format
Graphic Interchange Format ,
The CompuServe Information Service popularized the Graphic
Interchange Format . In the 1980s as an efficient means to transmit images across data networks, original designers of the World Wide Web adopted GIF for its efficiency and widespread familiarity ,GIF files incorporate a compression.

These files can be light and , they take only few KB's , The best animations Can be made with ULEAD GIF animators.
I have made successfully Banners, Page headers, Company Logos and I was also able to sell them.

ULEAD Screen has the most easy menu systems, their work space are Big, there is no clutter on the screen, I have used many times MS Gif Animator, which is easily downloaded from Internet , it is also a Light programme. But ULEAD is a few steps ahead of MS product. In fact it is many few steps far far ahead of MS product.

The Animation Banners you can make in ULEAD are superb the
Flexiblity to change the width and height of frame that give us The most flexiblity suppose I start the , 1st.frame 50x50 I can Make the next frame 70x70 and so on. This gives the effect that Your banner is moving onto you , like zoom in and you can reverse The process to zoom out.

My best frame making SOFTWARE is : The big surprise ''MS WORD'' 'MS EXCEL' their DRAW tools are simply superb and you can get Transparent Background from the MS Graphics Editor, otherwise You will have to Log on to some Internet site where they take Your frames and turn them transparent. It is a tedious process.

Anyway you can use MS PAINT also to make very good moving
Animations , like you make a frame of 70x70 and white and save
It, make another frame 70x70 , Fill tool you fill it up with blue Save and again save a frame Red, and add 1st letter of your Name and save and then add the 2nd letter and save and
So on and so forth.

Now you go to Animation wizard of the ULEAD gif animator and
Just add all the frames you have saved by the name 1.gif, 2.gif 3.gif that way you know, what 1.gif has and what 2.gif has this Just add to the animator and choose the effects , which are already There in your ULEAD programme.

Walla !! you have a Animation with one frame, sliding, one frame Verticle wipe, one frame Horizontal wipe etc.,

I have used many programmes for animation, but ease of use present In all ULEAD products is simply superb, You can download a trial Period programme from their website www.ulead.com , Just go And fill up your details in their registration form and you have a Link in your email inviting you to download the ULEAD GIF ANIMATOR Software. I have found the response of the support team of ULEAD Is fast and superb.

I wish I could go into many more details, but what I have given above Is suppose I sell my banner for US$ 10/= I have almost given you Folks information worth US$ 7/= So if you dont mind, I willEnd my Review here.

I just love animation, be it letter animations, figures animations Blinks, Wipes anything which beats looking at a plain graphic.

Dont forget to compress your graphics , so they are easy to
Upload in your geocities etc., or just plain email attachement.

I once tried to impress one of my friend by my animations. He replied Back that he liked it very much and he said I am a budding Genius.

People who are interested to take a look at some of my crude early Animations they can do it on
