Thanks akstylish and dglienna for your comments.

I made this GIF using Creative Docs(a free open source .Net vector graphics editor), Paint .Net(a free open source .Net bitmap graphics editor) and Microsoft GIF animator which is also free. This GIF is made using free tools!

Hi Khiem,

It is not so difficult to make a gif. Everyone, including you, can make one. The learning curve is perhaps higher for us, programmers who are not artistic inclined; I make some blunders during the process and have to redo some parts. I think there is alright for me because there was my first time using the graphics software. I'll definitely show my next animated GIF here, however, right now, I do not have any new idea.

Hi Alin,

Thank you for your compliments! I do really hope it can be used in a commercial.

You should learn Silverlight. You can animate things on a timeline

Re: My First Animated GIF

WPF and Silverlight are on my list of things to learn this year! Together with 3DS max, Clientside scripting like javascript, CSS, SEO, Photoshop, Flash and AfterEffects. I am afraid I have to move some of the things to next year's list. Too many things to learn, too little time!:eek:
