For the House/Cam fans on my Flist

And there seems to be a few of you :D

Because I said I would... and because alias_jems poked me. :P I've made another anim icon, another 'little moments' from Tuesdays US episode. I think I'll have to have another go at it to try and get it better (because it's a bit small to see) but you're welcome to use it.

There's a slightly clearer one as well now.

( Cut for those who don't want to see )

Thanks Tracey. It was just one of those things that you wonder if it was scripted... or just Hugh (and the editing staff) keeping our shipper hopes alive.

Either way much *squee* to be had.

Thanks :D

Glad you liked it, If I can get caps for the other scenes I'm planning I'll be making a series *g* Season two I have the AVI's for, 1 I don't ... need to go in search of clips to use.

squuuuuuuue :)

you could get the episodes from houseepisodes ;)
but not sure about clips - maybe you can request them there *unsure*

how do you even make the icons anyways - just out of interest.

I've managed to get a few clips (from the Italian House/Cam website :P) so that should keep me going!

It's pretty long winded how I make them (and I'm pretty sure there must be a easier way!).

I use Windows Movie Maker and SnagIt to cap the scene, WMM lets you advance to the next frame which is what you need to get the anim to work. Then I open all the caps in Photoshop and move them all into one image, so it's layered like the anim would be. Then resize it and adjust the colouring of each layer if it needs it. Then it's just a matter of moving it to Image Ready and setting up the animation. The pain comes in trying to get it under the 40k and still look decent!

I know you can import avi files (or sections of) into image ready and it'll do the frames for you, but each time I do it my pooter freaks out and tells me I don't have enough ram... Stupid thing.
