Mine looks like it's from a mug shot ... but I'm guessing it's a catwalk shot because of the words behind his head.

If it were Elvis, can you tell I'd go for the old, fat, jumpsuit Elvis? :D

Is it me or has nobody picked a Rambo-related avatar yet?

I'm going to for my other choice. Brian Dennehy (http://www.imdb.com/media/rm2456721664/nm0001133), that is.

NightHawks was my choice, once Sexy told me the theme, so I'm starting off with that. Sly with facial hair, Rutger Hauer, and The Bionic Woman. How could you go wrong!?!

Here I am, guilty of not really being all that late. I'm sorry. The next person can reveal their theme on Friday if they want to for sheer revenge. Hopefully we can forget about that mess before I cry, though. :bawling:

But anyways, everyone's avatars are absolutely fabulous and I'm glad this is pulling off well.

Maybe you don't like Sylvester Stallone, but there's more to choose with him & his movies than with Grace Jones, my original plan.

Besides, I just love Sylvester Stallone.... oooooh, sexy Italian men... he's a sexy celebrity, alright. (though, he looks like hell these days...)

Oh what fun! Since I'm taking a break from my psychic seminars this week, I thought I'd pop in and try out this Movie Theme of the Week business.

Jackie Stallone (Sly's mother) and I go way back, which is why I've decided to use her. We're good friends. I pulled down my pants for her one day and she immediately saw right into my future. She's an astrologer that reads butts instead of palms. She gave me a spanking because she saw me being very naughty in 2008. (yep, I was!)

It's been a couple of years since I last saw Jackie, but I predict that we'll meet again when I visit her on the set of the next Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie.

Ohhhhh, Jackie, I wish that day would hurry up and come!

Ironically, I just watch The X-Files episode starring Peter Boyle. Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose. Peter Boyle is a great psychic, but all the others are dreadful, with their easy answers, and thoughts that pretty much cover any possibility. "He is 17 to 35. She is a blond, brunette, or a red head, maybe. This person feels as though they have no control of their life . . . " With those kinds of answers, you can't be wrong. Even when you are.

06-20-09, 12:01 PM
Hello!

I wrestled with this probably more than was appropriate.

At first I had settled on the theme of 'Anything Hitchcock' since several of my favorite films are of that bent (and yours too judging by the favorites lists).

It was the MoFo top 100 list being bandied about though that really got me thinking about the lack of love for horror films here at MoFo. Of course some examples are widely loved and respected here but for the most part the old creature features, the Universal monster movies of the 30's & 40's, The Hammer Horror classics, Roger Corman etc get rather less attention than I feel is deserved.

So, to that end, the theme for the week is:

http://www.mattgleason.com/mofogallery/horror2.png

I wanted to be somewhat limiting so no one shows up with a Scary Movie avatar or a 'The Fog' remake avatar but this genre is probably the least likely to continue to get love here so whatever you like that fits the theme, knock yourselves out.

Of course, I'd personally be elated if some of you non horror fans go out and rent "I Spit on Your Grave" and love it so much that you make an avatar of it.

Or maybe you'll be curious as to who Roger Corman is and you'll stumble on a copy of Dementia 13 (written and directed by Coppola) and fall in love with it like I did.

Anyway, hope you all like it and that if you're not a horror film fan that some exposure and thinking about horror films this week will spur you on to give some a try. I mean, to me, a dark evening with a film like "Let's Scare Jessica to Death" is a slice of heaven.

There's nothing better than classic horror. I could use this theme for a year, and never get bored. I'll start with the one I made last Halloween, and I already know what will be next.

Caitlyn, does your avatar have a clown in it? If it does, and it looks like it does, it scares the crap out of me.


It's not a clown...

Very nice .gifs, Destiny! Is it possible for you to create similar animated .gifs pertaining to The Blair Witch? For instance, a .gif containing the final, climactic scene (or a portion of it) where Mike is facing the wall, about to be you-know-what, or of some random scene in the woods showing the piles of rocks and/or hanging wooden figures? Or, perhaps, The Blair Witch Project doesn't contain an excellent scene for an animated avatar. :/

I don't have a specific scene to suggest (except for the movie's final scene) -- I haven't seen the movie in a couple months, but if you can come up with anything at all, it'd be greatly appreciated. :)

I use my dvds also sure. The youtubedownloader also converts to avi the the 123 will allow you to cut out section you want within a range of frames and also resizes it for you and allows to adjust the frame speed too, and fireworks allows you to delete single frames and also edit them - lighten darken etc. It is just what I use, I know there are probably better things, I have just been using fireworks for years and I am comfortable with it.

The youtubedownloader also converts to avi the the 123 will allow you to cut out section you want within a range of frames and also resizes it for you and allows to adjust the frame speed too, and fireworks allows you to delete single frames and also edit them - lighten darken etc. It is just what I use, I know there are probably better things, I have just been using fireworks for years and I am comfortable with it.

I guess I'll need to try it, to get what you mean. I can't picture it downloading from your DVDs, so I'm lost. The 123 has me lost, as well. I'll try it soon, and if I get stuck, I'll bug you some more. :D

I doubt either way is better than the other. It's just what we're use to. For all I know, your way is faster. This I will know by late tonight. For now, I'm going to make Mr. Nator's using my way. (I'm on it, dude!)

p.s. Pyro, your avatar is not allowed. Sorry, but it's best to keep this site more family orientated. I'll PM it to you, so that you can use it elsewhere.

This has been driving me crazy. I couldn't find that post anywhere, and then I thought, "Good lord, he probably asked me 2-3 days ago in PM, and I forgot." I just looked, and thank goodness it was today while I was away. Duh, I was going to make it in the middle of the night tonight, when making Pyro's and Mr. Nator's. haha I was feelin' so guilty for forgettin' ya!

Lol, no worries. Yeah, I asked the same day. I wasn't impatient or anything, I just had some free time and felt like tinkering with how to make a .gif. I wouldn't feel guilty anyway, because making these things really is time consuming, and you turn them out for people on your own time.


I wonder how long that tutorial's been up. I looked way back when, and ended up having to figure it out for myself. I bet I'm taking the long way around making them. It would be my luck. This is how I do it . . .

Here! (http://www.movieforums.com/community/showthread.php?t=16934)

Is the way you found easier? 7thson, how are you making your's? I'm all for shortcuts.

I used one program - Adobe ImageReady CS - and THIS (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z93Z1v5dypE) tutorial. ImageReady isn't a free program, though; I got mine in a Photoshop package. It's also currently discontinued.

Basically, ImageReady works like Photoshop: you can create an image made of multiple layers. To create an animated .gif, you create a new document, load all your single frame images into ImageReady, and then one by one, drag-and-drop them into the new document, making sure you line them up accordingly. Each image you drop will create its own layer, so if you've got twenty images, you'll have twenty-one layers (including the white background layer, which you delete later). You also have to drop them in backwards, so your frames will line up correctly in the filmstrip.

Then, you open the Animation playback toolbar, and load your layers into it automatically as a filmstrip. You've got to do some tweaking here, particularly in how long each frame plays, and also delete that white background layer. But once that's done, you save your .gif as a manageable size, and voila!

To get my images, I opened the Youtube video, paused at each frame I wanted, and hit "Print Screen" on my keyboard, which essentially copies what's on your screen. Then, I went to ImageReady, opened a new document, clicked "Edit" then "Paste" and cropped out everything but the frame I wanted. I had to do that 27 times because I used 27 frames.

You can also lighten your images (albeit one-by-one) in ImageReady using the Image Adjustment options.

All of your instructions here!

If you have the same items I do, you may want to try how I make them. Mine sounds a tad faster. Animation Shop drops all images in at the same time, lines them up right then, and if by chance you want to delete the black around them, or zoom in more, it does that all at once, too. You line it around one photo, hit crop, and it's done.

Was being a butt des.

I hate you!

Yeah, I don't actually watch the video, until I've sent it off to Zamzar for reformatting/converting/whatever. I didn't realize what you gave me, until after I loaded the file to my computer, and opened it in my video player.

Yep!

Zamzar (http://zamzar.com/)

Go to Zamzar, and click on the 'download videos' tab. Take your You-tube URL address, and place it in the URL blank. Click the 'convert files' tab, and choose 'video formats' AVI. Then enter your email address, and click the 'convert' tab. Wait for it to load. I've done this. It does work, and it is safe. They email you the link for downloading your video. You only have 24 hours to save your video to your computer, unless you join.

Wow, that program would have come in handy. Thanks! :D

Yep, my posts are loooong, but if you can squeeze in the time, they are very step by step on how to make them. I looked on-line, but I never could find a site that taught people how to make them. Believe it or not, I figured it all out by myself. It took me forever to get it all sorted out, but I'm glad I did. I still want to try 7thson's way. It could be faster.

7:18 - 7:25. Thank you, Dest. :cool:

You can try lighting it up a bit; whatever you think makes the .gif look best.

I have tried for forever to get this stupid thing converted. First, Zamzar kept shutting down. Then I used my free trial converter that does 70%. I figured that'd be enough . . . NO, it wasn't. Of course I didn't know that until now. I had to shut-down earlier, because my computer is ****. I finally came back to toss it together, and the video stops at 7:13. Five minutes before the avatar scene. Anyway, whatever problem Zamzar was having, ii's OK now. It is at 71% complete. So, knock on wood, and no matter what . . . You best use this thing. :p

Seriously!

"If you could that would be great cheers, Were getting it ordered today so depending on how long it will take to arrive I think a month should be long enough."
