turnOk, I’m feeling a little proud of myself for pulling off these sweet animations for today’s post! I discovered some darling art in my library of turn-of-the-century books with instructions for building toy kinetoscopes, aka: zoetrope or spinning animation discs.
I spent all morning searching the internet for tutorials on making Photoshop gif animations and finally was able to create my own from the vintage images. It was a tricky process, I’m not sure I’ll remember how to do any of it tomorrow, but I’ll keep practicing.
If you would like to grab one of the fun animations to add to your sidebar or at the very bottom of your blog, simply control-click or right click on one of them, choose “copy link location”. Open your blog, go to customize, choose to add a gadget, picture, and then paste the url address into the box marked “from the web”. Then save and drag the picture to where you want it on your blog. Let me know you’ve used it and I’ll come for a visit!

nicely done!! i always look forward to your three word posts!
Impressive. Fascinating. Fun!
Wow! Great job!
Very good, the animations are hypnotic almost and being b/w creates more impact, somehow.
Just add Vintage Photoshop Animations to your resume of already off the chart coolness. Seriously Cathe - I want to be you when I grow up.
Cathe,
You are just so darn clever! Thanks for sharing your cute gifs.
Blessings,
Donna

Woah, that is strange. I too had been trying to figure out how to do the animated gif in photoshop. Pretty cool stuff. The cs4 version has a couple tweening options as well. I happened upon your amazing work for the first time last week, stunning.
Very Impressive Cathe
They are just great, well done, Cathe.
Maybe I try to put one or two in my blog, to see how it looks.

Look at you getting all techy! LOL! You did good. I haven't made an animated gif in years. You've inspired me.
