Animated GIFs workflow using MS-OneNote, MS-Paint, Irfanview and UnFREEZ
- To keep things simple (and, at least in our work environment, free) during smaller Animated GIF projects (larger projects may warrant use of ImageMagick, scriptable image editor), you can use
- MS-OneNote screen clipping (configured right, it seems the fastest way to collect source material)
- Update: I recommend now screenshotcaptor instead, if you do screenshot projects more than occasionally. MS-Paint (or pretty much any image editor) to mark up your images
- IrfanView to batch convert to GIF:
- UnFreez to easily create animated GIFs in differing speeds:
, which can be automated.

Learn Chinese character stroke-order with slowed-down animated GIFs
Further to our prior tips on learning Chinese stroke order, now you can take your time, in the LRC: To facilitate your practicing of Chinese character stroke-order, we have used the most helpful site (also available by direct download) created by Tim Xie for the California State University, Long Beach, to create 100 different speed versions, and one comic strip like static image, for each of the several hundred of animated GIFs demonstrating Chinese character writing, and made them available on the LRC computers under Internet Explorer Favorites – Example:
 |

You can access the files with the stroke order speed of your preference from the LRCCOED434 student computers, like so:
(Many thanks also to the authors of programmable ImageMagick image editor and corresponding Unix shell scripts that we could use in the production of the slowed down animated GIFs. To create your own version of these slowed down animated GIFs, or others similar websites, feel free to pick up and/or adapt our shell script here).
