Xara Webster - Creating animated GIF Files

Xara Webster can export animated GIF files which contain several separate images rather than just one. Programs which support this type of file show each image one after the other with a set time delay between each.

Because many World Wide Web browsers (Netscape Navigator version 2 and Microsoft Internet Explorer 3) support animated GIFs, it is very easy to use Xara Webster to create animations for your WWW pages. Xara Webster displays images at a very high quality and has a wide range of dithering and palette options, so your animations will look great.

There's two tutorials on how to create animated Gifs in Xara Webster:

• A simple animated banner heading using a rotating image from Xara3D, our powerful 3D program.
• The more complex animation shown at the top of this page.

There are some examples of animated GIFs in Gaddesden Gallery, so please send in any contributions for this.
