Hell, don't even post a .png unless it's necessary (aka never). * Do not quote .gifs. This is unnecessary and you should just snip them.[/b] [highlight]* SPOILERS GO IN MEDIA TAGS[/highlight] Here's the .gif tutorial I made from last thread: [quote=ME][highlight]How to make quick .gifs: GIS Edition[/highlight] [b][u]Whatchu need:[/b][/u] -An input video in .avi format (FRAPS is what I use for game capture) -VirtualDub [b][u]Whatchu do:[/b][/u] I'm going to go ahead and assume you already have your video file in .avi format. If not, Google something called SUPER and get it into an .avi container. With both VDub and your .avi video file at the ready, open up the VDub application (Veedub64 in my case) and you'll be greeted with a nice window that looks like this: [img]http://i.min.us/in2wGy.jpg[/img] Can't do shit with this, so now what you want to do is take your video file and drag it into the VDub window, so now you'll have something like this: [img]http://i.min.us/inyg0y.jpg[/img] If you're like me and you are recording fullscreen, you'll want to see both your input and output file so you can review how the .gif is going to come out. To resize the video you're seeing, right click the frame and select something managable like 50%: [img]http://i.min.us/in2yO6.jpg[/img] As you can see in the shot above, there are now actually two frames on the screen. The one on the left (that you just resized to see the right one) is the video based on the input file. The one on the right is what you'll be seeing when you export your .gif. Keep this in mind as you work around. Now that you have the program set up alright, it's time to get down to the .gif making. There are three main buttons that will help you when creating a .gif in VDub: Home End Delete Home is used to start a selection, End is used to stop the selection, and Delete will delete the selection. If you're deleting from the beginning of your .avi file, you don't need to start the selection with Home, simply create the endpoint by pressing End. In order to get finer control over which frames you're deleting, use the left and right arrow keys to go frame by frame. This can also be used to delete any duplicated frames, but be warned, as this can cause unwanted speed artifacts when you compile the .gif. When you have narrowed down the area you wish to make a .gif of, it's time to make it reasonable enough to fit on the web. To do this, we're gonna have to resize and/or crop the frame. At the top of VDub, select Video>Filters. Then, select Add and scroll down to the Resize filter. [img]http://i.min.us/inx6mo.jpg[/img] Because I'm using such a large native resolution, I usually choose a relative size of 25%. You can use any size that you choose, but remember that .gifs can get very large very fast and you don't want people having to load a 20MB .gif of your dancing elf in WoW. You should notice now that the right frame has decreased in size: [img]http://i.min.us/inx4eg.jpg[/img] This is good, as now you have a full feature preview of what your .gif will look like. If it's not looking good, you can go back to Video>Filters, select the Resize filter and then the "Cropping..." option to make it fit snug. Once you're done with all this, go to File>Export>Animated GIF. Make sure you have selected "Infinite loop" or else the .gif will stop short. [img]http://i.min.us/in1M2o.jpg[/img] Then, find the location you want to save it and hit Save. There you go, now you should have a .gif that you can upload to your site of choice and share with the world (aka this thread). If you have any questions, just ask. You can also make .gifs in some versions of Photoshop (I have CS4 and can), but there are tutorials all over the place for that, so I won't make one of those. [/quote]

[QUOTE=kamikaze470;29620489]These tanks are so bloody awesome.[/QUOTE] Indeed, it's been a while since i've seen such a detailed tank sim. The tactical map feature is pretty cool too.

When you quote images in automatically puts them in Img_Thumb tags.

Can you be kind enough to repost the GIF tutorial, or better yet, include it in the OP?
