I am wondering if I provide the images, if someone can turn them into rank images for me? I have a collection of animaed gif's that I need into ranks (up to 5). I don't want a shadow of the missing ranks, only the image duplicated in a set of two, three, four, and five. Note: I still want images to be animated gif's. (this is where I am stuck as I don't know how to do this properly)

Here are the images... (don't look the best on this background but they are for a white background, so need to be transparent background)

and

Incase you don't know what i'm looking for this is esentially what I need for each image. (5 images for each image)

Image 1 of image 1
Image 2 of image 1
Image 3 of image 1
Image 4 of image 1
Image 5 of Image 1

Thank you very much in advance and I hope it's not to much to ask!
Feel free to ask any questions!

From searching, and digging around it appears not many enjoy doing ranks. I hope i'm not asking for too much. Is it even possible to work with already finished gif's?

Thanks again for anyone willing to help me and sorry for double post =/.

Ranks is my personal achilles heel.

Bloody hate them lol

Double posts fine here, tis not one of those Nazi forums

Feel free to request ranks, just don't hold your breath.  There was a guy ages ago that liked doing them but not seen him for quite some time.  Possible someone might fancy your request.

In any event you are free to request more stuff

Ok, It shouldn't be too hard given I provided the images, all that is needed is to clone the images the proper amount of times. I don't have software that offers this but have found free online software, but the cloning does not place it next to it neatly . If someone just has a method to offset>clone the images in there software that would be great! Or if someone can steer me to a good free one that can do this, that would be great too!

No other requests at the moment but when one arises I will ask!

Thanks Again.

I would be willing to give this a try. I sent you a pm.

Got it. Thanks. I replied and hope to hear back on what you found out! Cheers!

Thanks again, Kat for trying.

Is there anyone else who can help or at least point me in the right direction?

It would be nice to find an easy way to create these images. I suppose I could just make the gif's from scratch but most use 16 or even 26 frames. I'm dealing with over 100 frames per image to get 5 ranks if I do it from scratch.  

If someone can show me a program, method of doing this faster, or teach me, that would be great and free is always best.

Thanks,

I took a shot at this, it's just the first one, but I wanted to know if it's right because it's quite a lot of work.







Just let me know, I'll do the rest as well, but it might take a while.

Nice job Weebull! Yes, it would be a lot of work. What program did you use? I wasn't able to do it without turning the animated gifs into regular gifs. Which wasn't what he wanted at all.

Kat

Thanks.
I'm using Photoshop CS4. I used to use Adobe Imageready to do animations, but since I don't have it anymore I had to find another way, so I searched around on the internet and I found out it's actually possible to do animations with Photoshop (at least with CS4...).

Yes, you go window>animation and it's quite easy to do

You're welcome. I'll do that last one as well, here's the second set.

Getting the hang of it

That's amazing!    

Great job. Thank you again.

And here's two more

And here's the last ones

Wow, great job WeeBull, and fast too!.

Kat

Thank you again so much for your time and effort. They all look great

Thanks Kat

And you're welcome mate.
