Animated GIFs

This is the example of the

second GIF I have ever made.

Took me 7 tries to get a finished project.

Step 1

A. Open Google Slides

B. Under File >Page Settings >Pixels Set 400 x 400

C. Create your 1st slide (choose background color, drew lights, text box with Happy

D. Duplicate that slide (colored the light differently, text box with Holidays

E. Duplicate that slide (put on a tree)

Step 2

Use the Slides to Drives add-on http://ly.tcea.org/get

This will save the 3 slides as a .png

Be patient on this part.

Click on the blue link to open up the folder in your Google Drive.

Download this file. On my Mac it downloaded it as a zip folder. I pulled it on my desktop, double-clicked on it to unzip it.


Step 3

A. Go to gifmaker.me

B. Upload your folder with your 3 . png files

C. On the left side, set your Canvas Size to 400 x 400

D. Set your animation speed (I used 750 for the blinking lights)

E. View the GIF or Download the GIF

But you don't really need to view it because you can look in the control panel. And there it is!
