This tutorial was written for Paint Shop Pro (v.7,8,9) and Animation Shop v.3, which comes bundled with many Paint Shop Pro versions, including 7, 8 and 9. A download is available at Jasc.com if you have PSP but don't have Animation Shop!
To Begin:
First, select the animated GIF you want to use. (If you are using a PSP file instead of a GIF file, please note that users of PSP 8 or 9 must change the File Type to a format that is PSP7 compatible in order to open it in Animation Shop.)
I will be using a simple 2-frame animation I made of Kokopelli playing his flute! You will use an animation of your choice. We'll end up with something like the animated sig tag shown above...with your name, of course!!
I feel I must insert a word about copyrights here. Some animations are free to use and alter as you wish. Others have restricted copyrights. You should be aware of the copyright status of the image you will be altering and, if necessary, obtain permission from author before using.
