Saving animations by xpirdwingz on 12-31-2004 at 02:25 PM
If I want to save a moving animation, do I just click on 'save picture as'? because I've done that, but its just one frame when I look at it in my folder.. why doesn't it move?
-Thanks, in advance

try saving it as a GIF image, it should work then

How do I do that? on the 'save as type' list, it only has bitmap.

If it's files/animations from the internet, try this: http://www.rjlsoftware.com/software/internet/save/

I'm not sure I understand... I just want to use a moving animation in my powerpoint presentation.

There is a known problem where you can only save images in Internet Explorer as bitmap and no longer in the original format. See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=810978 for a description and solution to that

Tochjo has posted the solution, but if you are intrested, I also had the same problem and I asked here, on these forums.
Read Right click on an picture-> Save Picture As, saves it in bmp format!

Never seen that
I usually just enter the url in google or make a new forum thread and hit preview (and don't end up posting the thread itself).

Thousands? Flash, GIF images, moive files, Javascript/ php image slideshows, animated ASCII and that's all

I just meant basic GIF images. I ended up going to a different site, and those seem to save alright.

quote:yep thousands... the avi format alone counts hundreds and hundreds of subformats, and subsubformats, and subsubsub..., etc... and don't forget all the other movie formats like from quicktime, realpayer, bink, etc... etc... which all count for hundreds of formats themselfs... and for plain graphics formats alone (like gif, mng, ...) I need more then both of my hands to sum up the ones I know of from the top of my head
