    DwightFry, you are a very good man - the board looks more lively now.

    I think I'll stick with my avatar though... I kinda like looking like an axe-murderer!

    Well, this is how I do it, there may be better ways, but this is the one that first came to my mind.


    First, open your video file in a program that allows you to use 'print screen' and see the video frame. (for ex. media player will just show a black box, I use virtual dub)

    Find the scene you want and stop on the first frame.

    PRINTSCREEN

    open adobe photoshop, and make a new file, and paste the screen shot. (This might get a little confusing here)

    create a layer below your screenshot, and place a box where you want to focus on, so you don't get the entire screen.

    _____________
    |........................|
    |.............____...|
    |............|.......|...|
    |............|.......|...|
    |.............------....|
    |........................|
    ---------------------

    Now using the magic wand tool, select the area of the box, and then go to your screen shot layer, and copy your first frame of the animation.

    start a new file, paste the first frame, and save it as 1.jpg

    delete your screenshot layer

    go back to your media player and go ahead 2 - 4 frames (depending on how smooth you want it to be)

    PRINT SCREEN

    Paste it in a layer above the box layer. Select the box with the magic wand, and copy that section on the screen shot for the second frame

    start a new file, paste the second frame, save it as 2 .jpg

    and so on and so forth.

    When you got all the frames, go into adobe image ready and make the animated GIF using the frames.


    I hope that wasn't too confusing, it's not as much work as it seems, after a while you get really fast at it.

    Crack_man, it appears you're into Linkin Park. Do you like 'Somewhere I Belong'? Meteora releases the 26th and I can't wait. B)
