How to add names this just using Animation Shop

First open the pic you want to use in animation shop, I've used the snow flake but you can use any animation or 'still picture'. Here's my snowflake if you want to use that.

( right click and save this to a folder on your pc )

Once you open your gif you will see the frames of animation seperately. This animation has 3 frames so you are going to have to make 3 name frames .

Click on File and then new.

Here you are making a blank frame to add your name. Make it 150 pix wide and 75 high.

you should then have one blank frame showing.

The next stage is adding your name to the frame first choose the colour you want to use in the colour palette at the side ( THE TOP BOX SHOWS THE COLOUR YOU WILL BE USING). click on the 'A' on the tool bar and then in the empty frame.

Another window pops up, choose your font and the sized ( the size I used is 36) Then click ok.

This should then show your name floating in the frame, place it where you want and then click.

Now we need to make this 3 frames long. Copy the first frame Ctrl C and then paste it twice ( Ctrl L times 2)

Select all the frames of your name by going Ctrl A and then copy them CTRL C

Go to the snowflake animation and select all of it ( CTRL A) then paste your name in there by going ctrl E.

move it to where you want to place it and then click down.

If you've got this far do PLEASE post us your efforts!
