GIF animator?

[deffenbaugh03]

I could have sworn i saw a plug-in on ucp for photoshop for making gif animations but i can't seem to find it, if there was never a plug in like that then i was wondering how do you guys make those gif avatars? any help would be greatly appreciated?

All you have to do is right click on the pic and click on "save as" when the window opens to save go to the bottom and click on the bottom little window and change it to jpg.

i've done that! and it doesnt give me jpg as an option, only bmp.

I really miss Windows 3.1. It was the only Windows I ever got to understand.

I just looke at your screen save and you are saving "saving" not "save as"

How do I do save as from the internet? I right click, then hit "Save Picture As" and that's the box that pops up.

Right click, then select save target as, or save as, or save [insert term here] as

Let me save a pic off the internet and then capture the screen to show you! BE back in a few minutes!
