For the past two weeks or so, whenever I make a graphic and save it as a .jpg (I haven't tried any other formats) and then upload it to photobucket, it looks fine. Then, a couple of days pass and then the graphic gets blurry and it looks of really bad quality. :/ What is going on? LOL

made this tutorial for friends @ flow-generation.com. its for noobs, basically. so if youre a noob try it out XD ....and watch vanilla_scandal

Program: Photoshop CS
Steps: 5
Translatable: Yes
PSD: yep!
Works best with black and white images but color ones are ok too.

( There's even an FAQ! -gets stoned- )

Can someone find a tutorial explaining how to do icons like this one?



And I have to say I've never done any animation in my life, so it has to be really well explained from the beggining :/
I use CS3, but I can download others programs if necessary.

Thanks in advance!

I can't for the life of me find a good (free) program (MAC compatible) that can take mutiple screen caps to make animated gifs.

I currently use ImageReady to animate and InstantShot! to take screencaps. However InstantShot! isn't terribly accurate while taking screen caps. No matter how much I tamper with the settings, the gifs turn out much choppier than I'd like, because the frames aren't always taken at equal intervals.

I know a lot of PC users use KMplayer or VirtualDub to grab frames and the gifs seem to turn out amazing; really fluid, smooth moving gifs. However neither of these programs are compatible with Macs.

If any anyone can give me some tips for good screen capping programs for making gifs (or any gif tips in general when it comes to Macs), I'd really, really appreciate it!

So i want to know a good programme to make animated icons. I have Paint Shop Pro X-2 for coloring.
Also i've downloaded Animation Shop 3 but i really don't like to make the screencaps somewhere else and then bring them to AS3.

Does anyone know any programme that doesn't need the screencaps? You know... Just working with parts of the video? Thanks!

Please comment with any questions. Hope you guys find it useful, and I'd really love to see what you guys can make from this. :]

I read this awesome fic with Severus and Hermione, and I completely forgot what it was called. I always bookmark them, but I have so much... If you can help, it would be greatly appreciated. Love it a lot!

It was sort of POST DH, but Severus was alive. Hermione divorced Ron because he was in love with someone else. They still had Rose and Hugo, and I can't remember how old they were, but probably 6 or 7. Hermione stays at Luna's place. You evntually learn that Luna's family was very close to Severus. Like best friends. Hermione is asked to look through some stuff in the attic, I think. Somehow, something from Luna's mom takes Hermione to the past? or something. I can't remember, correctly. But she's in a world where she's married to Snape, but she still has Rose and Hugo with her. She's confused, of course. She starts to fall in love with him. Later on, she accidentally goes back. She learns from Luna that he's actually alive and she tries to see him... Severus learns soemthing from Luna about Hermione... That's about it all I can remember.  ^_^

Can anyone help?????? 

Thx.
