Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com Review
GIF animation is easy, doesn't rely on special software, doesn't require unique server configurations, and is relatively bandwidth-friendly. This book, with its color pages and remarkably simple text, provides everything you need to know to create interesting GIF animation for both Windows and Mac. Special case studies of Voyager Company, Pepsi, Ben & Jerry's and others provide many "Aha! That's how they did that!" moments. Includes a CD with fully functional versions of GIF Builder, GIF Construction Set and WebPainter, plus demos of other software and the actual files of animations covered in the book.

This review is from: GIF Animation Studio: Animating Your Web Site (Web Studio Series) (Paperback)
I feel that this was a good book at the beginning of the Cyber Age but not it is irrelevant.
