I’m trying to make an animated gif where two of my graphics expand to the outer edges of the picture. However all that I can manage to accomplish is to have the opacity fade in or out. Is it possible to make a graphic expand in CS4?

Thanks for any help!

I will see if I can do a movie but can you look at the tutorials on animation for Photoshop extended.

Are you wiling to work with a normal timeline?

I’m not very familiar with animation using Photoshop. I have a small amount of experience using Illustrator, but not much. I’m not sure what a normal timeline is.

What I’m trying to do should be very simple. I want to emulate a tv screen flickering on, using 2 white bars that expand outwards from the center of a blackish background.

This is how you would do the animation exporting I would assume though I did not try it would be by save for the web.
