I love your bubble bobble sig. Getting to remember that stuff like that exists is one of the reasons I love coming here :unsmith:

Excited to finish my sig (didn't get it done today like I wanted) since I feel like it was a good excuse to learn some really basic photoshoppery. Maybe one day I can be as good as you guys :D

holy moses They Might Be, I feel like a real human ready for some hot summer action... one of these days, before I die, I would like to try my hand at some of these digital artistic enterprises

seriously, this is a dang good sig :discourse:

I've spent most of my 13 years on the SomethingAwful.com forums just enjoying the atmosphere. Today is the first day that I've actually felt welcome to spend my time here.

that's what we're here to do.* I think I lurked here on and off for about 4 years, bought an account, and then lurked on and off for another 6 years, then I decided to :justpost:

having a lot of fun with this and I thought of one more sig idea that made me lol but I think I need some help. I love abusing the hell out of frinkiac and I thought of a great simpsons gif that I wanted to make but it comes out strange when I download the gif and try to open it in Photoshop. Any suggestions. For reference, it's this one.

e: by strange I mean missing lots of pieces? It's difficult to explain really.

make sure you 'unoptimize,' this way each frame can be edited a little easier without trailers. If you're going to add stuff, also move it from 'indexed' color scheme to 'rgb'

any ideas on how you want to edit this bad boy i'll give it a shot

Hmm I'm not sure if that's what it is. This is how it appears in Photoshop after getting it from Frinkiac



So I feel like I'm missing a step somewhere.

hmmm looks like there were some slightly weird things about the way the frame disposal was specified, also the color indexing

I'm curious, is this one easier to work with in photoshop? I actually use gimp for my gif editing, I don't have full photoshop only ps elements.



I have an unoptimized file too, but it's like 53 MB, kind of unwieldy to transfer/share (too big for imgur I think)


lol

Yes, that did it! Thank you! :D I downloaded GIMP too since I'd been playing with both so I could decide which one was easier to use. What was it you did in GIMP to fix it or get it to display properly? I'm guessing PS's default settings were causing it to render incorrectly or something.
Anyway, this was my original vision, made with the file you fixed for me.

All of this was really helpful! And yeah, I can see the use in making a "unoptimized" file in order to get the extra frames. I'll definitely refer to all of this info again the next time I download a new Simpsons gif.
As for the hackery, I'm 99% sure that most of this is done and can be done in PS, I'm just still trying to figure it out or I need to learn some of those terms so I know what to google for PS tutorials and get help on specific subjects
What the PS gif work space looks like
