Hello, everyone! I have been commanded by the lovely ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
profcricket to contribute to Rec Week's resource day with a fun little lesson in how to add .gifs to your entries.
This is a three step process that involves screencapping the scene you want, creating the .gif, and then upping the .gif to your entry. I'm going to leave an extended explanation of screencapping to someone else (unless anyone requests an explanation, I'd be happy to do one if needed!), but I'll explain how to make .gifs in Photoshop (CS5) and then post them, here. With a little bonus link of .gif!post in action at the bottom!
( Explanation here. )
=D! If anyone has any questions - no matter how simple - feel free to leave them in the comments and I'll do my best to answer them!
