Animation, I'm almost done...help me? Options

[xxxSiERRAxxx]

Okay, so I just basically need help with animating two pics.

I designed them, saved them, closed them, and opened them back up again. I guess I should show the pics to you. Here is my first pic of my animation:



And the second:



You might be interested in how far I've gotten to. Well, here's what I've done:

I opened my images in Photoshop.

I transfered them to Image Ready.

I set the alloted time for each frame (1 sec.)

And then I got stuck

Can you help me finish up? Or tell me that I'm doing something wrong and what I can do to fix it?

What are you exactly trying to do? Do you want to motion tween? Or just make them blink back and forth?

Oh sorry I just want to make them blink back and forth :\

you can try changing the opacity on different frames, i think.

Then just save it like that with the two seperate frames and it'll be fine. At least, that's how it works in other animation programs. Yours can't be that much different.

uh... as best as I can in words:

you should have both images under the same file/name/document. so the 'hi i'm sierra' and 'who are you?' are each a layer in one document. understand so far?

transfer it to image ready.

in the layers window, you see the two layers. now... in the rollover window with the frames (it should already have one automatically), you should see the top layer of your document. that's good! now click the new frame button. you have a new frame next to your first one and it should look exactly the same as the first. to change that, go to the layers window and make the first layer/top layer invisible (click the eye in the box). your second frame should now have your second layer/image.

that's it. change the transitions/effects and that's about it. blinking calls for really short time between the frames.

i just realized that was a total waste of time... cause apparently...you have the frames already.

No, don't worry! I can learn how to do it by myself now!! *yells and screams happily* (Maestro made my avatar for me )
