Introduction
I'm proud to present my program called "Boot Animation Creator"! It's a powerful tool that makes creating Android boot animations a lot easier job!
Features
-Light on memory
-Easy-to-use user interface
-Makes boot animations in just three steps!
-Auto-update functionality
-Built-in updater
-No limitations of any kind!
-YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THE DESC.TXT FILE AND THE COMPRESSION METHODS AT ALL!! BOOT ANIMATION CREATOR DOES THAT FOR YOU!
Requirements
-Microsoft .NET Framework 4
-All your frames drawn and organised into 'part' folders (the folders don't have to be called 'part')
How to use Boot Animation Creator
1. Open Boot Animation Previewer. Read the introduction, and click 'Next'
2. Choose the folder in which your boot animation is(the parent folder of the 'part' folders) and click 'Next'
3. Click the 'Add a loop' button to add a loop. A new window will appear. Just set the properties and click 'Add'
*Optional: you can edit the width, height and speed of your animation by selecting the first property item and clicking on the 'Edit' button. A window will appear. Change the properties and click 'Set'
4. Save the animation and click 'Next'
5. You're done! If you want, you can preview your boot animation by clicking the big 'Preview boot animation' button. You'll need the latest version of Boot Animation Previewer to use this feature.
Finally, click Finish

Running Boot Animation Creator on Linux operating systems - thanks, kurdo_kolene!
I don't suggest running Boot Animation Creator on other operating system than Windows. It may not run correctly, and on some computers it may not ever run. Therefore, use it with caution (this only appeals for running B.A.C. on other operating systems than Windows)! If you get errors while running B.A.C. on other operating systems than Windows, and not on Windows itself, I won't provide support for them, because this program is not intended to run on other OS than Windows. Report bugs only if you're using Boot Animation Creator on Windows.
Final words
That was about it. It was easy, wasn't it? Please post feedback and thoughts about my program, they are gladly appreciated.
hello, i have been using Boot Animation Creator to make animations for my droid x2. when i first downloaded the program about a month ago i was able to make two different ones. and the program worked like a charm.
but as of yesterday i am not having the same results. all my pictures display but they move way to fast!!! i have been trying different configurations to the 'desc' file but nothing changes.
480 640 30
p 45 23 part0

thats the config that worked a month ago, and for some reason will not work now. i am at a loss. any help appreciated
How do you mean? Can you explain a little better, please? And please delete the whole quote, it's taking too much space.
Oh, well that's because my server got hijacked a month ago, and I deleted all the stuff, including the files that this program used to check for updates. Anyway, there will be no more updates, and I recommend to everyone to switch to Boot Animation Factory.
