Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

If you'd like to learn how create a wide variety of GIF animations, check out this book. The author covers lots of ground, starting off by teaching you how to prepare your images for animation with Jasc's Paint Shop Pro, Adobe Photoshop, and Adobe PhotoDeluxe. The heart of the book, which covers GIF animations, focuses on using GIF Construction Set, a Windows program, and GifBuilder, a Macintosh program. The author touches on several other animation tools and teaches you how to test and optimize your animations for the Web. Next you learn how to create GIF animations using 3-D graphics that you build in Pixel 3D and morphed images that you build in HiJaak Morph and Kai's Power Goo. Finally, you get an introduction to Java animation tools, digital video, server-push technology, and third-party plug-ins such as Macromedia Flash and Shockwave. The book includes a glossary on image-editing and Internet terms. The companion CD-ROM offers GIF animation tools, 3-D-rendering tools, a media manager, Paint Shop Pro, a demonstration version of Kai's Power Tools 3.0, and Java applications.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent book!, August 8, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Official Netscape Guide to Web Animation (Paperback)
This is a funny, well-written book with a great companion CD-ROM... for once, you get all the tools demonstrated in the text (and more). I found the chapters on morphing and 3D animation particularly interesting. Even built a 3D logo for my web page in 10 minutes, using the software on the CD-ROM. If you're looking for a comprehensive book that covers every angle of Web animation, buy this one!
