Re: Profile Picture

You need a paint program that can support .gif files,and then make the different frames, and then upload it to the site.

Re: Profile Picture

Gif is a type of image file and an animated Gif is a special kind of Gif image with multiple frames.

You can find animated Gifs online as well, just Google 'animated gif' or you can make your own using a program like Gimp or Photoshop.

I hope that helps  smile

SO, you need to download programs for it? Or can you do it on scratch?

No, no Scratch.  It's not even a paint program.

Scratch doesn't export multiframe gif files.
Photoshop or Gimp will work.

You can make a gif out of images that you already have on your computer using an online gif maker like iaza.com if you don't want to download something  smile

Re: Profile Picture

Try going to makeagif.com . From there you can import photos into their animation maker, and it will make the animation for you. Of course yo have to have the pictures. And as someone said before, you can make the pictures in Gimp or another paint program, but in gimp, you can make an animation straight from there. :p

Re: Profile Picture

You can either use the above suggestions about making a .gif in a program, or you can use the "safer" way (Depends on the website you use.) and use an online .gif maker, and just upload separate frames and let it make it into a gif.

If you don't include the name of the picture of what you want, how is google supposed to know what you want?
