I'm amazed at the pictures people post in these threads, especially the animated ones. If you're a a graphic designer, please tell me where you live and what you do. I have a two year degree in graphic design, and I couldn't begin to post pictures like yours.

Is there any way you can describe how you find and insert the animated pictures that are sometimes so appropriate?

    I'm a graphic designer, and I ummm... design graphic type stuff.

    And you can find animate gifs on the internets, with or without a design degree.

    I found animated GIFs on the internet, but now how do I get one into a thread? I've delayed asking this since I thought it was probably a dumb question, but I can't figure it out. Hope someone can help. I'm not very technical but do love those pics and photos. I saw some really neat ones on Photobucket.

    Thanks.

    You're a graphic designer? This is pretty basic stuff.

    Photobucket it easy, just paste the option that starts with [ img ] (no spaces)

    If you find one on the web, save it to your own photobucket, or hotlink by copying the url and surround it with [ img ] [ /img ] (no spaces)


    Why do people have to tell you where they live for that? :indifferent:
