update:
I got my first annimation complete but it looks like crap. I'll have to keep messing with it to optimize it and make it look good. Then I need to figure out the sound part. Making slow progress. I think eveyone will like this one though.
EDIT - One thing I've notice when you are doing the batch conversion if you start your file name number with #1, example: "bootani1.jpg, bootani2.jpg etc, and you have more than 100 images even when sorting by acending it will put bootani2.jpg before the bootani200.jpg file (makes sense the way Windows sorts). The work around is to start your file name numbers with 100 in Irfanview and go from there. This is just an extra step in the Irfanview program and not that big of a deal. Use Batch rename - options - starting counter and start with 100 increment by 1. This way makes it easy to just move your files into your part folders and it won't screw up the order so image#2 shows up in the middle of the animation.
I've attached one version of what I've been working on. I had to rotate it to a landscape view because it just didn't look right the other way. I plucked the video off of youtube and will have to figure out how to adjust the aspect ratio of videos etc. to fit our screen without distorting. Hope you like it. I named the file ATT_bootanimation.zip because that's what my phone uses. Just rename it to whatever your phone needs. It's a little big and I'm working on getting the size smaller without losing clarity.
Remember to rw-r-r the permissions.
Enjoy!!!!
