Hi guys.
I really want to know how to make a smooth gif animation to transition between my two sigs.
I don't like the abruptness of it just snapping from one sig to the other.

Do I blur each sig like, 5 copies, each getting blurrier and then gif them all Together?
That's the only way I can think of

Have the 2 sigs overlay eachother. Than pull the opicity down from the top layer 100 to 0 (animated.) When you did this place another img of the top layer to the lower layer (you have 3layers now the upper and lower are the same) Now pull the opicity down for the middle layer so that the lower layer will be revealed. When its revealed you save as gif and you have a loop and smooth transition.

O.o
Thx
What program do I use for this?

gimp/adobe photoshop, flash, after effects, premiere. I'm sure there
are many many more

But when I use photoshop, how do I save it as a gif.
And what do u mean 100 to 0 (animated)
What do u mean by animated?

100% opacity to 0 opacity so that it fully transparent.
You can place keyframes for this and photoshop will animatie the opacity By itself. To export gif you need to go to file>save for web and devices then file extension Gif. Make sure you press the option loop if you want to have a loop in the animation.

When I go to save, where do I press the loop option?
When I change it to forever, and save and play in browser, it doesn't loop :/

forever is the loop option.
If you priview in the save window does it animate there?
Maybe you didnt animate it yet?

I got it. But it's a different transition.
Now photobucket says error whilst uploading the file -_-

Woot did it, thanks mate!
