How to make a gif

1. Import the pics you want to use to photoshop Cs6. Make sure you load them into one stack. This lets them be in one layer and not form different layers. I advice not using so many photos as it might be too big ; just make it simple.

2. Open up the timeline window. This will be your workspace. Anything you want to edit, you will have to use the timeline. This is legit the life to your gif. Make sure you have it...

3. In the timeline window, click create new  animation. Immediately you click this, it will automatically create a video timeline. If it doesn't SUE PHOTOSHOP...or you can just click it by yourself. Choose wisely.

4.Create a new layer for each new frame. You first of all have to select all layers.Then click on the dropdown menu that appears. This option allows you to manipulate each image on it's on.

5.From the same menu...choose make frames from layers. This lets you futher edit the images. After this you get to choose how long your gif runs for. 1 minute, 2 hours, FOREVER! preview it, screenshot it...now you can brag.

6.Time to save this! File>Export>Save for Web. This is when it gets tricky but I figured it out. On the top right box, there is a present thingy. This is where you choose what format yourgif is going to be.

7. You might get confused on the dithering things. The higher dithering percentage, the larger the file.WE DON'T WANT THAT! Get a moderate one according to your gif and save it! YOU MADE IT!!!

1.get the images that you wanna use from the internet. This means going through images that are not binded to copyright statements. Make sure you get quality images.

2. Crop the images that you want to use to your main background. Cropping can be hard but you have to capture the main parts of your picture. Be precise and take your time 😉

3.I had to position the cats in the frames. This means getting good quality pictures and placing it in the correction way.

4. I went on to crop the main piece...the girl and the cat. I had to get every part of the girl. Again, take your time. Then after cropping the cat, I positioned it as the head of the girl.

5.Make sure there are nio blemishes on the girl and the cat. Use the healing brush to clear anything out of the ordinary

6.Go on to flaten your layers into one. Now all your layers are one and you can manipulate everything at once.

7.Using the cloning stamp, select the what you would like to clone by alt and left click. Clone the cat skin to whatever part you want...and there
