Re: animated Gifs

[Deb Koch]

Hey thanks,


I downloaded Fireworks and can't make heads or tails out of how to MAKE an

animate GIF there. Can't find anything in help about it...frustrated me, it

was why I downloaded it actuallly,


If you know how, I'd love a blow by blow how to list,


Thanks,


Deb



PS:

I'm REALLY in urgent need of an answer to the Q I keep asking..how can I

change the alternate image thing at the bottom of the aftershocked file to

load (if all else fails, embed, object, Active X and etc) to load an HTML

page?????


My problem is that the flash movie has a button link that is important. I

can back up the game plan with an image mapped jpg but I need it on an HTML

page right???????????
