Gif animation problem / your feedback needed
« on: June 14, 2003, 01:04:08 AM »		 Reply with quote
Please everybody tells me if he/she sees a clean gif animation or not?



With MSIE I see a flickering lower border. That means a piece of the black bottom border disappears and reappears which causes a flickering effect.

This problem is only with MSIE, in all my other browsers the animation was clean (Mozilla, Opera, Netscape).

What do you see? Please tell me. Thanks.

Thank you. That animation looks clean to me. How did you modify the animation? I see you added 2 extra pixels in height. Something else?

Just resize the canvas height  ;)

I use macromedia fireworks for animated gif.

Cheers  :)

In the meanwhile I modified my test graphic by adding 1 extra pixel at top and bottom. It is as you write, with the extra pixels the animation looks also clean with MSIE.

Thanks again, babylonking.

Made some more tests and it looks like only the top extra pixel is needed:

gif without extra pixel
gif with top&bottom extra pixel
gif with top extra pixel only
