So you wanted to get yelled at here? j/k
If you search macupdate.com for "gif," you'll find a lot of software for building animated gifs.

I don't know if any of these apps will save a Quicktime movie file to an animated gif, but you can probably copy and paste frames from a Quicktime movie into the gif building app.

  • How do you make new pages from a page so they have the first page in their address.

    I am talking about something like the adobe site.
    Like www.adobe.com/support/dreamweaver/whatever
    How do you make a page be under another like the dreamweaver page is a link from the support page.
    My goal is something like this.
    I have www.architecture.com/profile
    I need
    www.architecture.com/profile/Commercial
    www.architecture.com/profile/Residential

    If im understanding you correctly, you want the folder to have an automatic landing page. Ex. If your folder is
    "profile" you want the visitor to see the first profile page when they visit www.yoursite.com/profile. Correct?
    If thats what you need, name the page you want your visitor to see when they go to ex. www.yoursite.com/profile "index.html" or "index.php" ad save that file in your "profile" folder. When you're visitor will go to www.yoursite.com/profile the page you named "index" will open.
    Let me know if you dont understand or if its not what your trying to do.

  • How do you make an Image from a Graphics?

    1) Is it possible to make an Image from a graphics?
    I've returned the Graphics of an image in the method of one class so that I can work with it in another class. I was looking for a setGraphics in the Image class but there isn't one. Nor is there a graphics.createImage(). What I'd really like to do is get the background image, draw on it in a separate class, then return it to the original class (for buffering purposes).
    2) is there any way to make a blank Image of given dimensions (without actually making a .gif of a blank screen)? I want to draw on the background even if it is blank, but I can't get the Graphics of a null Image.
    thanks in advance.. :-) jen

    thanks for all your help guys!
    i looked at those websites.
    The reason why the site's buffered images work is becuase they are using the paint method in a single class. (i.e. they are not calling the graphics from someplace else). If you call a Graphics (using getGraphics and the like) from someplace else, you don't get a reference or pointer; you get a COPY. The copy will helpfully record your instructions. But the original graphics doesn't get the instructions. That's my problem. My graphics instructions are not getting sent to the originating Graphics, so drawRect never gets executed.
    Another problem is that I often have no background picture in my container, and hence, I have a null pointer when I try to draw stuff on the returned Graphics.
    So what I want to do is create an image in the subclass of the rectangles, lines, whatever, and send it to my handy little setBackground(Image im) method in my superclass. And whenever the background image is null, create a white image to draw on.
    I am calling the graphics from the background of a custom lightweight container. I would REALLY REALLY not like to mess with my container code... it took me a long time to get it working.
    I also don't want to override paint. That would make all the buffering work I did obsolete. :-(

  • How do you make a jpeg from a clip

    How do you extract (or make) a jpeg from an iMovie clip. That is,the fairly new edition of iMovie?

    You could just make a screen grab of the video playing, that is the easiest.
    Open photos app, and play the video, pause where you want the image from.
    Then hold the power and home button to grab a still image of the screen.
    There is an app called videopix that can also grab full frame video grabs.

  • How do you make an icon from an image

    Used to be if you selected "Get Info" you could get an icon from the info window. Now all I get is this.

    Yup - apparently the OS does not make actual thumbnails anymore for files; instead, it uses something like Preview to generate them on the fly. This means that when you do a Get Info on them, the icon shown in the upper left is a generic one.
    A solution -
    Lower down in the Get Info window is a preview of the image. Double-click that, and it will open in Preview. Press Command-A (Select All) then Command-C (Copy). This will place the image on the Clipboard.
    Switch to the Get Info window for the file or folder you want to place the image onto as an icon, click the generic one in the upper left to select it, press Command-V (Paste).

  • How do you make a call from your computer

    Thanks

    Create the slideshow either in iPHoto or in iDVD itself. Pick one of the old themes like World, Travel, Windowbox, Scrapbook or Pinboard that have no dropzone and drag a blank, black image file menu's window. That will give you a black menu. Change the text color to whatever you'd like for the play button for the slideshow. If you want the slideshow to start immediately when you put the disk in the DVD player click on the Map button in the bottom toolbar, last one on the left in the middle. In the next window drag the slideshow icon into the box at the far left. Then use the File->Save as Disk Image and complete the project. You can then open the disk image and play it with DVD Player to preview before committing to disk. If it's what you want, burn it with Disk Utility as the slowest speed possible for maximum compatibility with the many DVD players on the market.

    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • How do you make individual jpgs from a clipping mask of a larger jpg file?

    I have a large mosaic picture that makes up an image. I have set dimensions and a template of smaller bounding boxes that will be individual canvas's when I print them and when put together will make this larger image. I am unable to export or save individual jpg files from this clipping mask of a larger file. Any Suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Garrett

    Don't use clipping masks, use artboards and enable the "use artboards" option on export.

    I have multiple devices used by family members, how do you make sure the kids don't see Moms messages from Dad and visa versa?

    Hi Roger:
    Thanks for the reply.  I think I figured out the problem.  Apple has confused (at least in my mind) the different IDs that people can have.  In the iCloud settings, they use the term Apple ID and not iCloud ID.  I guess there really is no such thing as an iCloud ID.  There are Apple IDs with various attributes.  This is not clearly explained or easy to see (how could I look up to see if my Apple ID is associated with iTunes for example?).
    I created, what I thought were iCloud IDs for each family member, but we all use my Apple ID for iTunes.
    One other question - why does the syncing of Notes using iCloud require an @me.com email account.  That makes no sense to me.
    Thanks for your help!

  • How do you make all outgoing mail on iPhone come from one default address?

    I have multiple Apple devices which include laptop, iPad, iPhone 4, iPhone 4s.  I use several email accounts for my business.  How do you make the default outgoing email address one the iPhones one email address like you can on the laptop?  I want the outgoing email address to be the same on all devices.

    Thank you.  I think I got it for the 4 but not for the 4S.  In mail, contacts, calendars, do you choose default account?  Also, there does not appear to be a choice like this for the icloud.  How do you change the default on it?  The best I can see is icloud to account to advanced to mail to icloud account information.  On that screen there is a box that says allow sending from and the only choices you have are the icloud account and me account.  I do not see how to add another account if that is the right section.  I don't want the icloud or the me to be a return address.
    Thanks in advance.
