I can make GIF files!

I just went for a Photoshop workshop. It was on Saturday and Sunday, the whole day on both days. I found out about it from work...and after asking around whether other people were interested, ended up going there in a group of seven. (there were supposed to be nine of us...then some cancelled, some got replaced, and some didn't turn up :| ) We were the majority in the class...there were only three or four other people :P

The course was in JMTI (Japan Malaysia Technical Institute). I don't know why the acronym is in English...nowhere did I see the name written in English...it was always in Malay (do the translation yourself! :P ) They taught us all about the different features of Photoshop...it was all very quick, so we managed to try out a few things and find out what the program can do...but to be good at it, I guess we'll need to practise!

Anyway, I found out that Photoshop can create GIF files. I never knew what program could make them...and I never took the time to find out (I didn't need to make any anyway!). So here's the first GIF I made (during the course):


So how do you like it? ;)

Unfortunately Blogger doesn't support GIFs...it only displayed the first frame! So I needed to upload this on Google Docs and then load the GIF from there. Thanks to a forum and this guy's post...and the commenter who said:

The key for me was to publish under the privacy setting "Public on the web - Anyone on the Internet can find and view" and then right clicking on the image to copy the link.

Images that used authentication didn't load in Firefox or IE, so the other permission settings didn't work for me. Hope that helps anyone else with this quirky problem!

I didn't even try it without the "public" setting. :P

Edit: animated GIFs, I should have said. Because non-animated ones are easy...you just save them in that format! :P (Thanks to Alberto for pointing that out to me! lol )
