Stop gif (and png I suppose) animations

How do I stop image animations in Safari?
I tried plugins like SafariStand and Pith Helmet, nothing seems to work.
I'm using Safari 3.2.1 on Mac OS X 10.5.6.

It could be related to the fact that Apple removed support for viewing animated GIF images in Mail, which also relies on WebKit to display HTML mail, in addition to display in Safari. But in my experience, it definitely works in 10.4.11, so it's probably just a Leopard-specific problem at this point.

  • Converting transparent GIF and PNG to JPEG

    Hi,
    I have been reading in various sample gifs and png files and converting them to jpeg via javax.imageio.
    This works fine if there is no transparency colour defined in the png or gif file. But if it has a transparency colour, the resulting jpeg is messed up. Now, it appears the reason is because jpeg has no transparencies. So, my question is, how does one get rid of the transparency (assuming I want to convert it to 'white')?
    For the record, I am calling
    BufferedImage image= reader.read(0);Where reader is an ImageReader and I then convert "image" to jpeg.

  • Why can't PS CC read .gif and .png files anymore?

    Everytime I've tried to load my files into my PS like usual (simply dragging the photo to the dock) I get this error message "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file." for both .gif files and .png. It's quite frustrating because a lot of my files on my computer are in .png format and I have previous .gifs I've made that I'd like to edit and can't. I have a Mac OSX and I've tried rewriting the file names but I still get the same message and I've tried making a new document in PS and pasting the photo but I only end up with the image below. I'm not sure what else to do anymore. It's quite frustrating. Any suggestions?

    All right. That could also explain why my updates aren't working. (I'll try the same for my illustrator because those updates aren't working also.)

  • Logo image distored when creating a transparent gif and png

    Hi all,
    Creating a logo for my department with little or no graphic design exp.  I'm experiencing issues when saving the file as a transparent GIF or PNG.  The GIF removes the 300 dpi setting that the print shop needs to turn this into a poster and the PNG is creating some jagged edges around my logo.  The image is 2000 pixels and about 7 in. by 7 in.
    Any help would be appreciated.  I can email the PSD to anyone if they can help.  Here is the PNG:
    And here is the GIF:

    There was no abuse, just an observation. Would an abusive person be trying to help you? Is there a crime in suggesting that one prepare themselves with more experience before taking on a project like this?
    Aside from low resolution, there were a few other signs that you might be in over your head with a logo design. Logos are typically created in a vector program (not Photoshop).
    I cannot imagine a reputable print shop asking you for a PNG or GIF file when there are so many better formats.

  • GIF and PNG aliased when placed over bg image

    When I use Save for Web/Devices in both Illustrator and
    Photoshop, the saved files look normal and display fine in browser
    and other image viewing programs. However, when I attempt to turn
    them into a navigation bar or rollover, they become severely
    aliased when placed into a table (which is the layout). I tried
    placing them just by themselves in a XHTML document and they do not
    alias, even when the body has a bg image (I am using CSS and have
    encounted no other problems). This is pretty frustrating and would
    appreciated any help.

    Have a link for us?
    My guess is you either:
    a) are using gif or 8-bit png transparency, and then placing
    it on a
    background that is of a different color than the one in the
    original file
    or
    b) the image is scaled and you're seeing pixelization rather
    than aliasing.

  • How to make a GIF and PNG save with the same colors.

    I seem to get a slight shift in colors when saving a PNG. I save as png24 in photoshop then save as png6 in fireworks (to get degradeable alpha transparency), eg. please see logo for molecule clothing compared to background (only shows on some monitors).
    Thanks for any pointers.

    You don't note where you see the problems (which browsers, which situations) so I'm guessing it involves PNG gamma.

  • CS5 Suddenly Stops Saving and Opening PNG & GIF Files

    CS5, windoze 7, 64 bit.
    Inexplicably, CS5 just stops working with PNG & GIF format files.
    Fine, this morning; but not after lunch! Indigestion?
    Bridge says it's missing a/the java plug-in. Huh? Java is up to
    date at OS level.
    Very puzzling. Anyone got a fix for this?

    Kind of you to reply and offer assistance - thanks.
    First, I'm inquiring for my wife. I.e. I'm not the user. She's not all that comfortable with using Forums.
    I use Photo Impact - now part of Corel, as I understand it.
    She says she can't open or save those formats, as she used to be able to. But she can open PNGs
    in Illustrator.
    The bridge error message is generated on clicking bridge, when no other task is running:
    Adobe Photshop CS5 Extended
    Could not complete your request because
    Photoshop was unable to find the javascript
    plug-in.
    The mini bridge also gives an error message when clicked on, with no other task is running:
    Adobe Photshop CS5 Extended
    Cannot complete command because the
    extension could not be loaded.
    She reports that a lot of Save As options have disappeared. If this was Photoimpact, I'd be
    checking the FIO folder for the necessary fio files, but I don't know how PS manages the
    way in which various file formats become interchangeable for saving/opening. What that
    has to do with bridge, I know not. I don't know the first thing about PS.
    That said, chronologically, the problem seems to have occurred after the installation of
    a number of pre-sets. That makes me suspicious of them. Or rather, the installation
    process that they involved. But I don't know for sure, nor do I know how that installation
    of presets process might be reversed, to check if that caused the problem. (see below)
    Oh, she has executed an update, but that didn't fix the problem either.
    If there's no easy way to achieve a remedy to the problem, I'm contemplating doing a system
    restore. She's presently moving (backing-up) those pre-sets before any roll-back is attempted.

  • Better use for Fireworks CS6, other than animated gifs and batch process?

    I started using fireworks in the much earlier days of web design back in 2000. Now with Illustrator and Photoshop being the law of the land, fireworks has begun to fade and take a back seat.  Primarily right now i use fireworks just for creating animated gifs and batch process if i have a bunch of images that i would like to re-export or format to my liking.  Does anyone have any other better uses for this program?  detPhx
    I am just looking to utilize this more, since i install it.

    For the web, exported PNG compression is better in FW than PS.
    CS6 FW can now generate code  for CSS3 borders, gradients, Sprites, etc...
    FW can be used for jQuery Mobile Theme skinning
    http://tv.adobe.com/show/learn-fireworks-cs6/
    I still use AI for vector graphics & PS for photo & image manipulation, but FW has some nice features for web designers.
