Above are four frames from the Biohazardman gif on next row.
I downloaded these GIFs off of the following website - http//www.animfactory.com. these were created using some 3d animation software such as 3DS MAX, some 3D modeling and animation programs can create a animated gif directly. AfterEffects can also export and Animated GIF.

An animated gif can be created using photoshop and image ready. If you created a seris of layers and alter each layer, save and open in ImageReady it will take the layers and create a animated GIF - eachlayer become one frame of the animation.

Using ImageReady ought be fairly simple for you to master. it is basically Photoshop with a interfacethat allows you to create and process images forthe web.

WARNING: I do not recommend putting too many animated GIFS on a sinlge page, especially if the size of the files is large. the biohazardman is 31k. This is the largest of the four. you should be judicious in your useof the animated gif. Try to remember that you viewer has little patience and willnot wait if thepage does not load.
