Narcis_speed6 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 You could use a Extended version of Photoshop (the ones with the timeline) or use another software (I recommend VirtualDUB) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Narcis_speed6 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Image->Image Size... Pretty much the same technique as a normal image, the difference is how you save it. File->Save for Web & Devices... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobita Nobie Posted March 1, 2013 Author Share Posted March 1, 2013 PROBLEMS ! Â Â After resizing , it reduces it. I want to crop empty space and make it into avatar size. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narcis_speed6 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Make the Canvas smaller before you Resize the whole image. Image->Canvas Size... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OverTheBelow Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Just use Image > Trim > Transparent pixels, or set the canvas size to your desired avatar size. Â I'm just confused as to why you have such expensive software and yet don't know how to perform such a basic procedure with it OP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunWrath Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Just use Image > Trim > Transparent pixels, or set the canvas size to your desired avatar size. Â I'm just confused as to why you have such expensive software and yet don't know how to perform such a basic procedure with it OP. Perhaps because he's new to it? Â We all bought expensive things and didn't know exactly how to fully operate them. Hell, I still don't know how to do basic computer inputs but there's always room to learn. Â @ Nobita, But yeah, you can trim the canvas as well or simply Create a new canvas 64x64 or whichever avatar size you're aiming for then move the gif onto that canvas and use the techniques that Narcis explained.

In PS, it spins once Once you've trimmed it and have the Save For Web window open in Photoshop, look in the bottom right corner and select 'Forever' in the dropdown that is labelled as Looping Options.

Narcis_speed6 Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 You can change the Looping options from the Save Menu as OverTheBelow suggested or you can change it from here  http://i.imgur.com/WlQRWbb.png  Highlighted on your screenshot so you can understand better.

Narcis_speed6 Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 That's because you added a Drop Shadow without any transparency colors check the Transparency field and add this color [#]182741 to Matte. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
