Multi-layered image |
This is an image of the Linux penguin. In this exercise I learned about using layers. I added a new layer to a transparent background image, and added it with a white background. Moving the layers around showed me that whatever layer was on top, was the primary thing that would be viewed. So, for example, if I had the white background layer at the top, the rest of the image would be totally obscured. I then made a copy of the penguin, then pasted it. I noticed it created a floating layer, and therefore created a new transparent layer, and anchored the floating layer to it. Finally, I added a caption to the front of the image, after deleting the white background and the copied image. I saved it as an interlaced png so that the transparency would be apparent if one downloaded it.

The Animated gif. My name shows up on the last frame. |
This is the animated script I used to create an animated gif. To do this, I went to the file menu, selected create. Then from there I chose the text rotation script. From here, I had to copy and paste the text the script generated. However, I had to first rotate the text and then merge it to a white background. This would allow these images to appear one after the other to give the appearance of the text rotating on the final product. So, I copied the text and pasted it, then rotated with the rotation tool, then I anchored them to a white background. Finally I saved the image as an animated gif with a 500 millisecond delay.
