Practicing

I did it!

I've been trying to create an Animated Gif for the past couple of days. I might want to use one for a thingy in my sidebar and Mini was kind enough to be my guinea pig.

If you want to try making one the lovely Ez of Creature Comforts has a great tutorial on her blog on how to make an animated ad.

My inspiration for this one in a post came from Swedish blog Niotillfem (Ninetofive). Check out Sandra. Talk about awesome personal style!

Well done you!!

I'm just starting out in this blogging caper and finding my lack of HTML knowledge a bit challenging....to me it seems like what you've just achieved is equivalent to neurosurgery! :)

All the best with the spring cleaning, but i think it looks great as it is, really nice and fresh.

Well done!
I should learn a bit more about HTML but i have no time...so thanks for these tips.

Benita this looks great, but could you slow down the animation a bit...it makes me dizzy

Det var väl snällt av Mini att ställa upp :-)

Wow! Fantastic!!!!
I have absolutely no technical skills, so it is all so impressive.
I find animated and moving items make me seasick when I catch them out of the corner of my eye ~ just one other perspective. I think everything makes me seasick though, so it's probably just me.

Wow! Very cool!

De-lurking just to say please, please don't put anything animated on your nice clean page! I find anything that moves on a page is very annoying to the reader and I stay away from sites that use animation as I really find them very jarring in a bad way.

I congratulate you on conquering the technology though :)

Happy new year!

I especially like the closeup of Mini's ear and tail!
