Whenever I animate I usually only use imageready as its handy for photoshop creations.

But for pixel work I use MS Paint, and thought it might be a bit of a pain tryin to get the layers done 1 by 1 in paint then putting them together in imageready.

So I was wondering if there was any programs out there that are basically MS Paint with animation options?

Heh, frames in MSPaint is easy (thas how I do it) you just have to have really good music and a bit of time, I can do ~100 frames in 30 or so mins... but that's 32x32

Animationshop 3 is awesome and simple, i use that. It doesn't have layers though.

I use paintshop pro 9 and animationshop 3

make a sprite sheet, cut it and make tons of different images, and assemble them with animationshop. its tedious work, but its working well.

this topic and a couple others gets me wondering if anyone bothers to look at the pinned topics...

but yeah... if you want to pay for a program the are some good ones out there, but i dont see the point. i currently use animagic. soots me fine; it is the same as using imageready, though...
I have plenty of emotions; It is Sleep that i lack
