I built it from 5 still photos of a Great Blue Heron. Aligning the frames was tricky and the photos were taken on a breezy day in July (remember those summer breezes? mmmmmm) , so the leaves in the trees come and go. :)
It loops once. I have a version that loops longer, but it felt too noisy.
To see it animate, just click refresh on your browser. It looked fine on the fast T1 connection, but this laptop doesn't have enough RAM i guess.

hi all
did not understand - saw the heron move
but jpg is not an anim format only gif is
there is a proposed png anim but it is non standard (though I thought PNG was animated)
Perhaps someone can clarify?
=================
Thanks for the offer ts - i made a smaller version - reduced the width & height to 50% size, which brough the file size down to 85k from 285. I tried to use Irfan view on the 5 original frames, which were all in the vicinity of 59K jpgs. I took them down to 5k jpgs and then converted each to gifs, and they all exploded back up to 57K as gifs... So, i just went with the smaller dimensions.

ah makes sense

I put the new smaller one on the front page of the wiki and left the other one in the photo section.
I do think the limitation is my laptop and not enough RAM, however the laptop sees the full animation using the large format gif that is on Photobucket... So maybe the additional overhead of the wiki makes the difference.
Anyway, no problems... It was a fun thing to learn and do.
:)

wikis are slow
and we need to know what the speed is like for modem users
who come for the first time
