Ubuntu 9.04 and some

Thu May 14, 2009, 1:32 PM
OK, it's quite a while ago since Ubuntu 9.04 came out and my PC was upgraded to the new system a few days later.

It's a pretty nice system, with faster boot times, ext4 support, hardware and driver support, newer software packages and so on.

And of course, the Synfigstudio problem has been solved! :D
But but but, guess what.. There's a NEW problem with the repository package! Instead a GTK+ error it just crashes with the message "Segmentation Fault". That SUCKS! And it seems I'm not the only one who has this problem. But oh well, I found a forum, where someone linked to another repository, where I just downloaded and installed a 'non-ubuntu-repository' DEB package, and now it works, so I won't complain to much. It's really just a shame.

Also, I got the 256 ATI (I don't remember the model) card replaced with an old GeForce 4 card. It's not very fast, but at least now the computer is usable.

And now, some actually relevant stuff... (Well, not really)
I'm currently playing a lot around with Blender and I have learned a few new cool tricks, so I'm hoping that I can do some 3D 'art' submissions soon. Prioritised on Star Fox, of course. :)

I've got a bad foot, and I've been emo at school, but I'm good. =)

Today I feel much worse. I keep losing my temper at school, sending me into hysteria. These days sometimes I wish I didn't even exist.

Can you help me? I don't know how to make an animated icon on here.

There's plenty of Software out there to create animated GIF's.

As I assume you are using Windows, the easiest way to start would probably be with a simple GIF animation program like MS GIF animator. [link] .

If you want more advanced tools for GIF animation, you could for example use The Blender 3D, the GIMP and/or Synfig Studio. All of these are FOSS [link] and can be downloaded for free.

For this stupid rotating ZZ icon I'm using as I write, I used Blender to make the spinning Z's and The GIMP to animate the frames. I'm planning on making a new GIF in Synfig Studio later.

Would Flash work as well?

You can't have a flash file as Avatar, but if you can create an animated GIF file from something made in flash, that could work fine.
