When u got dat big upvote...

Just a simple addition of text this time, based on an idea I had today.

Kind of a pain to make a gifed meme, but it's not that annoying when there are no effects on it.

Since I did it in gimp, first I had to go to effects, animated, unoptimize. Then, after typing the text and setting the font style, I had to do path to select, grow, new layer, fill, to get the text outline. Then I merged down the layer with the text outline, and duplicated that to above every layer, and then merged down those layers on the ones below. After that it was just a matter of re-optimizing, and exporting to gif. Way less annoying than trying to do a text effect like before.

Bask in the glory of my 13 cent upvote!!!

dude! it's super impressive you got that big of an upvote so quickly!

Dude, i can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not? xD

No, I'm not. To get that much on your own so quickly is very impressive. Many users will only have a 1 cent vote for months.

Oh, well in that case, thank you :D You have surely been a great help :) You and a lot of other people. There's actually a decent amount of people who are willing to help you improve your content, which is awesome :)

Make it rain with whale votes man

Beautiful!

is that you throwing the money?

No, my upvote is more like throwing quarters.

then make a gif with falling coins, and throwing coins and stuff. you'll need slomo guys for that. :P

Yeah, lemme just get right on that massive amount of work to make a stupid gif with coins.

And then Arrjey said in his sarcastic voice "No! Please don't create another one of these. Its painful to watch."

This is really interesting @geekpowered. I’m trying to learn how to use gimp to make animated gifs with sprites. Got any advice? I’m used to using flash with its timelines and key frames, but I’m not sure that gimp has that. From what I can tell in gimp, you make layers instead of key frames and it animated from bottom up. Is there a better way in gimp?

Yeah, use photoshop. XD LOL!

Making GIMP gifs is actually very similar to photoshop. Or like making a flip book. Each layer is a frame. It's a pain in the ass.

Look up lots of tutorials, and realize that it's probably not the best tool for the job. I just use it because I have it installed, and it's open source.

I was just going to say this is so relatable but wanted to know why you used gimp since I would assume you have photoshop installed. But hey use what is at hand and always good to try and stay off the corporate bandwagon.
