Thanks for replying
I use Animation Shop 3 and Photofiltre Studio (this is not exactly sophisticated as PSP or PS but reliable) and the quality of the video was like that.I tried optimization but the result was no better.If you can't change the quality how about colourizations and other tecchniques one generally uses while making signatures? Is there no other way of doing those w/o working n the individual frames?

I also wanted to know how backgrounds like this sig you have made can be found?Is it available on web or should we make them on our own? 😳

well this should show u the basic animaiton shop tutorials:

(effects/text/brushes on video avis)

Yea if the quality of the original video is bad, we can't really improve it. Most of the tutorials here require u to have either psp or ps....there are a few coloring tuts that I have posted here as well. If you want a copy of psp 9 then let me know. That's the standard version that we offer our regular members.

As for backgrounds, i'm not sure which one you are referring to. But generally you can use any picture or texture from the web that you can find. I made that a long time ago so I dont really rememebr exactly what I used.

I mean the way without having to take so many caps. Yes I know what you mean dear...like video avatar for example they put 'geovid' on it and it spoils the look of the vid avi but I found a different way to do it without having to take so many caps but the problem is that when I make the avi size 100x100 I have to crop all the frames and my whole avi doesn't fit into itI want to know how to sort that out.

well it depends on what software you are using...we use Windows Movie Maker and then export to either ANimation Shop or ImageReady. Other softwares have their own mechanism. So if you have all your already takes the caps for you, take them into animation shop or image ready and then crop out the parts that u dont need. Then resize them to be 100x100 instead of cropping it until it's 100x100.

I'm sorry for being a pain😆😭 I didn't really get that😕you mean it takes the caps for you? so you don't have to take so many caps with Windows Movie Maker? that's cool! is it like that though? if yeah then how? please explain. See I'm new to all this...I don't even know the basics lol. Also, I didn't get the resizing bit...do you know if I can get any good+easy tutz for all this?Sorry for bothering you so much. Hope you don't mind.😳

😕 you said that u found a different way to do it besides the movie maker taking loads of caps! And u were asking that the only thing that u couldnt do was make it 100x100! That's what i answered. That if you found a different way to take caps then u can just open ur caps in animation shop and resize them. There is no way around not caping urself. U have to do that urself by using movie maker or whtever other software. Once you have the caps you can open them in animation shop all at once so it's 1 file
u open animation shop
Click on file>>animation wizard
Then the wizard will pop up.
Click on As Defined here (then put in 100x100)
Click Next
Click on Transparent
Click Next
On this screen make sure the "scale frames to fit" box is checked
Click Next
Click Next again
Click on Add image
Find your caps and press ctrl and click on all your caps and click Open
Click Next and Click Finish
All your caps will be opened in the same animation and should be 100x100

I hope that's more clear...you still need to get your own caps...sorry i know it takes forever but that's the way to do it unfortunately...unless i guess if you buy some special software but I dont really know any out there...

Oh and feel free to ask more questions. You never bother anyone here =) We're always happy to help in anyway 😊

Yeah thanks! I did ask that. I found another way to do it without the caps but I'll do it the right way anyways with the caps and all...I know all of it just not the "scale frames to fit" part...now you explained thank youuu =]
