    Hi Michael. Can you help me please! I did a great morph animation in Gimp, but when I export in the .gif format it and plat it, loses all the quality, and the slightly grainy and pixelated. I noticed that your export of the waterfall example was exactly the same. What am I doing wrong? thanks.

    I get an error message when trying to export as GIF. Says u16 color present, expectign u8 color, convert first. Ahhh!!!! Is there anyway to just export the still images individually, as when I try this they all seem to be the same so can't convert in 3rd party software to video.

  • @bhanukhanx

    because gif has color limits. instead do this . export as .ora file. open in 7zip or archive manager. extract it. go to data folder. now you got png files. open up blender import as image sequence. set resolution . reverse video. export it as video file. Thanks to you (since I was faking same thing with blender no more. you just saved my time). And also using 30 frames give you smooth result.

    very in depth, though nearly impossible for someone new to GIMP to follow.
    i tried to follow along, ran into many roadbumps but got through them. then got "GIF IMAGE MESSAGE> cannot export RGB color imagies. convert to indexed color or grayscale first"
    I"m sure i'll figure that out eventually, but it was the one speedbump i couldnt easily figure out how to navigate, and it stopped me cold when trying to follow.

      I had to figure it out for myself, but I had to watch another tutorial from someone else! It would have been nice to mention that in order to visualize our animated image, we need to open it in a web browser! What seems to be logical for some is not to someone like me. It took be two days to figure it out!

    Great video. I followed and tried. I can create and save as a .gif and I double checked to make sure I checked the animate box. But, for some reason, when I click the file after it is saved, windows runs it as a photo. I have also tried opening both Chrome and IE then, dropping the file into the browser. It works, but not as a gig, only as a static image. What should I do? Thank you.
