Welcome to Gaia! ::

Hmm.. did she?

Well, I think I did choose the right doctor..anyway, how could I have chosen?? It was all very sudden..

But she gave me a K-9!! biggrin K-9 Mark V..

eek ok... I am not following any of this...

wowz we have a lot of banners! And all of them awesomely cool... hmm Doctor Tipping sounds like lots of fun though.. and Roobarb can I just ask what ate the doctors recorder?

My vote is with a Yeti. domokun

Hey, what program where you all making the animated Doctor Who banners in? I'm in the mood to make something creative, and most of the time I use the programs at school, but I'm home and don't have access to the programs at school, so I was wondering if any of you made animated banners and things in Photoshop?

Oh, yeah, and I was wondering if anyone could point me towards some free fonts somewhere? My computer's font package sucks - just the basics.

http://www.dafont.com/ has a good collection of fonts.

Anyway, I recommend Photoshop 7 and Imageready 7 for all banner making. Roobarb just can't use ImageReady to its full potential. stare
She's so OS9. xp

Unfortunately Photoshop & Imageready, and most of Adobe's products when I think about it, are very very expensive. sweatdrop

Roobarb, it IS insane. To make that little think I did for Sushi man was 22 frames. No transitions, no tweening of any sort. If you look at the long..epic animations you do, and imagine how many frames that took..and then count how many transitions you would have added...*shudder* My computer would not be happy with me if I did that. It'd freeze almost immediately. Although, I see now why you import a whole folder in. I have slight suspicions doing that with my computer so i just click 'edit in Imageready' and take the layers across to play with.. But I suppose your own transistions DO make it more interesting..I just don't like doing it because it takes my computer long enough to do it without already in any case.

Yup umm..there's imageready 7 with photoshop 7, There's the CS versions and the newest CS2 versions, but I doubt anyone here has them.. Any older than that I don't know..I don't think there are..

For animations you could also use Flash..more annoying, less ways to directly edit graphics..but it works better than Imageready. Smoother at least. I'd recommend a combination of Photoshop and Flash to anybody bothered to do it. For quick things for the web, I just use Imageready.

Maybe I just don't have as much patience as Roobarb..I mean, I only ever have a few hours aafter school each day, to cram everything I have to do into..which leaves a bare mimimum for the extra luxury like things..like detailed animations. We have a 30 day trial of Flash MX I might use someday..

You know what I'd really like? The Maya thing..for 3D animations.. VERY expensive..and I probably won't use it much..so no point, but it'd be cool.
