The Export selection is available in GIMP version 2.8. If you don't have this then you're probably using an earlier version. If you are using an earlier version then select "Save As" and give your file name a .gif extension. One way to convert the animation to a movie is to play the animation while you capture it with a screen recorder. One popular screen recorder is called CamStudio.
I have looked at different offerings and I like that you have the same version that I am using making it easier to apply what is learned. Very clear instructions.
Thank you for this video. I appreciate how you explain every step and every detail, leaving nothing out. If only all gimp video tuts were as precise as your's. I was taught- If you can't do it properly don't do it at all. Elaine
Thanks a lot. Your tutorials are easy to understand and really gets one up to start working with GIMP immediately. You throw us right into the deep waters and help us swim to the shore. I love this kinda approach.
WOW! this is the first tutorial I found to be informative, step by step following resulted in rendering the image exactly as expected. I would like to add a few points, 1. choose a bigger image size if your text is longer. 2. Add few more light points if the text is longer.
I've watched alot of good videos that provide instructions. I must rate this one 5 out of 5 stars for consistency, description, clarity, and good A/V proportions. Well done..
First i would like to say that I love the way that you presented your tutorial, it was easy to follow and what I learned from you today will help me in my future. Thank you
I watch your tutorials and in my opinion your way to explain the things is perfect.Thank u very much.Keep the good working.Best regards from Corfu Greece.
I LOVE your tutorials, very clear and easy to follow. I would like to learn more on Logo's! These, are by far the BEST tutorials on TH-cam! Thank you so much! =]
Amazing what GIMP can do. Thanks. As a suggestion, I would love to hear just a few words of explanation now and then about "why" you do something instead of just the steps.
You made it look so easy, what a great video! I wasn't aware of this feature, thank you for this incredible work 👏 Hopefully, you will make more great content on Gimp.
thank you so much for your tutorials, they are brilliant and i'm learning loads. littlewebhut is excellent and you are the best tutor i've found on line. much appreciated :)
Best tutorial channel to exist! You make things so easy to understand and do and i just started gimp a month ago when i saw ur video while doing school.
Yes. The video encoder included with GAP allows you to encode it and decode it. So if you want to upload it to TH-cam, the mpeg2 container is the one I use.
You can do all the music adding with GAP as well. You need to create the music file with another program like Audacity or Cubase, though. GAP stands for (GIMP Animation Package) and it gives the power of frame level editing(each frame becomes an image within the GIMP interface) to GIMP.
ctrl+shift+e if you are using GIMP 2.8(check the version at the help dialog, clicking on 'about'). Otherwise, older versions of GIMP have the export option at the same 'save' dialog.
you tutorials are great tysm was just wondering how would i add this animation to a pic of a person and make it without the black background on the animation
YES, very well done and it worked for me....was kind of bummed when it would animate on my music page (Soundcloud) or on Facebook....how come it doesnt? Is there a way to get it too, or is it the fault of those pages not supporting animation files
thanks this is a really excellent tutorial. I was wondering how you get your playback window to remain small? Mine goes full screen and I can't even tell what's going on, on screen, its that big.
Very cool! I made one and uploaded it tenor and now its in the KIK gifs. So awesome. About to make another but maybe the reason it didn't turn out as good as yours because I dont see the fg/bg lighting in my 2.10.12 gimp. Make an updated version?
Once again a useful tutorial! You explain it so well!! **** Could you make a tutorial how to mask a cat without losing the whiskers? LOL I have trouble with that when there is no contrast background.. ? or give me some hints..? Thanks :)
Alright, thanks, and do you know about how to save the animation so I could put it in a TH-cam video or in Windows Movie Maker or something to edit it a bit more?
Hi, thanks for the nice tutorial. Do you know by any chance how can we create a spinning coin/text/image in GIMP, please. I'd like it to spin 360 degrees with its base as the pivot. Thanks
Enjoyed the video, I have watched several, yours is best, others have many problems, music to loud, voice to weak, and on & on. This software is amazing and learning curve is high, but I like it anyway.
I have a Question after making this is there a way to save it in gimp as a style or pattern and how would i redit the word? would i have to start from scratch with another word?
help please.. theres an export to and export in file but when i click the export and write the filenme with extension of gif the another box has no option of "continues looping and animation". only export box.. i used gimp 2.8
Ok I have my text as "K.D." and when you said "Click the center of the text four times using the left mouse button." I click it four times and nothings changing and I'm click four times within the "Iwarp" display box. Any help would be appreciated please and thank you.
doesn't work for me when i use iwarp the whole picture is one the left top and when i do like you said and put this thing in the mid and then come to the step to look how it looks like animated it doesnt get bigger well it kinda does but not like yours. just the edges get bigger and i think thats because it wasnt the middle when i used iwarp so i tried to put the letters in the mid but then i just reform them so yeah (my english is bad so idk if you understand it)
Please help! I want to know how to get the "export" button, I only have the saves and stuff, no export. Also, is there any way to open this up in like Windows Movie Maker so I can add music to the animation? I put it in Windows Movie Maker, but there is no longer any animation.
tutor4u Can you help? When I uploaded this as my Blogger background, the text is not animated and everything around it is a weird distorted green color.

So many people have no patience.. I get lost after 10 seconds.. Thank you so much for the way you explain things.. Love your videos...
this is how you make a first class tutorial, no disco background music, clearly and slowly spoken, each step in an easy way to follow.
Your tutorial was as blissfully straightforward as ever. Many thanks
I have looked at different offerings and I like that you have the same version that I am using making it easier to apply what is learned. Very clear instructions.
