If anyone with photoshop knows why the frame animations become unresponsive after manipulating a layer (transform and translate) please let me know. I had to keep closing and reopening PS to be able to change to the next frame.

Oh and this is for anyone who posts this on /r/ReactionGifs http://i.imgur.com/pesGM.gif

P.S <3 Sir Scoots. https://twitter.com/SirScoots/status/245577268292907009

[–]Cintiq 5 points6 points ago

You might need to elaborate a bit.
Perhaps there was a frame that wasn't hidden near the top of the layers which was causing the confusion?

[–]MajesticTowerOfHats[S] 1 point2 points ago

I'd duplicate an arrow, do a selection around the new layer and free transform. Spin it, squish it, save the transformation now when I'd click onto the next frame in the Animation bar to move it, the overall image wouldn't change (it would be stuck showing say Frame 3 even though I clicked on frame 4 or 5). I'd have to save, quit out and reopen it all to be able to flick between frames again. It's weird.

[–]Cintiq 2 points3 points ago

Hmm, if I'm understanding I think I'll stick with my original suggestion.
When you make a new layer to add an arrow or what have you, it'll be visible by default on all layers of the animation. This means you'll want to highlight all frames of animation, then hide the newly created layer for all of the animated frames. Click back to the frame you want to animate and show it.

Sorry if that didn't explain it very well, I'm a bit rusty.
Just watch your layers tab and hopefully that'll sort it out.

If not, I'm afraid I can't help. Best of luck.

[–]dideroted 2 points3 points ago

When you highlight a frame in the animation bar all of the layers that will be displayed in that frame will be marked with an "eye" icon in layer tab, on the right. As you can notice, in that tab, if a layer is marked with the eye icon, it will always cover all of the layers beneath it, even if they are marked too.

You want to make sure that your frames in animation tab don't have a common, "master" layer in the layer tab, which would cover those actual animation layers beneath it. Hope this helps.

Not sure but good determination :)

No way I would attempt tp do that gif without AE.

[–]MajesticTowerOfHats[S] 0 points1 point ago

I was sure I had it installed but I guess I only checked PS after reformatting my pc.

[–]mequals1m1w 0 points1 point ago

You would most likely have a much better time doing it on After Effects, then bring it into PS to make it into a gif.

[–]WcP 47 points48 points ago

I hope this gets popular all over reddit, like the Keen .gif.

[–]morlakai 24 points25 points ago

do people use the keen gif outside of r/starcraft?

[–]WcP 62 points63 points ago

I see it all the time on r/askreddit. It's pretty funny, even if you don't understand the context.

[–]Bijan641 39 points40 points ago

I think the icing on that cake is the fact that the word "win" appears in the corner, instantly making it accessible without context.

[–]Lymah 1 point2 points ago

And yet people think he lost

[–]koobear 2 points3 points ago

Keen gif OP.

Bunker build time increased next patch.

[–]Syphon8 11 points12 points ago

Constantly, and it's just wonderful.

[–]Chargus 4 points5 points ago

Seen it being used quite a bit on AskReddit actually.

[–]Deziire 5 points6 points ago

Yup, i see it quite a bit when i browse over /r/all

[–]warinc 3 points4 points ago

All the time.

[–]EarlyHolocene 2 points3 points ago

I see it regularly on a football forum where I doubt many people have even heard of Starcraft.

[–]morlakai 0 points1 point ago

go broncos!

:D

[–]topher200 48 points49 points ago

[–]JoshuaIan 19 points20 points ago

Quickly! It's the Keen gif! Shower it with karma!

[–]batrick 16 points17 points ago

[–]zmansman17 0 points1 point ago

Keen gif hard countered with Sir Scoots gif. Seems about right.

[–]Billd_sc2 18 points19 points ago

I will be utilizing this on r/gonewild tonight. Thank you OP.

[–]Xacez 15 points16 points ago

And now to guess the time before this gif is used everywhere on Reddit. Winner gets karma.

[–]xhOzerg 17 points18 points ago

4 months.

Doctor? Captain? River?

[–]xhOzerg 7 points8 points ago

You may know me as Marty. There have been movies made about my life and time travels.

[–]GalantZ 4 points5 points ago

No one cares for you Mcfly.

[–]bradygilg 0 points1 point ago

I was thinking more like 45 minutes.

[–]Frekavichk 4 points5 points ago

it happened to Keen's clapping, so I wouldn't be suprised.

[–]Naniwasopro 10 points11 points ago

Nice. GJ OP.

[–]MajesticTowerOfHats[S] 5 points6 points ago

thank you :)

[–]PretentiousLatinWord 1 point2 points ago

And thank YOU!

[–]windyy 4 points5 points ago

This is one of those gifs that will make its way around Reddit. Doesn't matter the topic. Where there are an excessive number of upvotes to be had it will be used.

Well done.

[–]MugatusDog 5 points6 points ago

I make it rain, I make it rain, I make is rain with these votes

[–]MajesticTowerOfHats[S] 3 points4 points ago

If it rains, let it rain, yeah, the wetter, the better

[–]finsterdexter 2 points3 points ago

I love SirScoots. Definitely one of my favorite people in the esports community.

[–]Hurlen 3 points4 points ago

[–]MajesticTowerOfHats[S] 1 point2 points ago

Oh Geoffrey, don't turn away my advances like that.

[–]NewCentury 2 points3 points ago

I saw the original of this GIF today and thought to myself: This guy looks like SirScoots.

[–]sisc1337 0 points1 point ago

The EG curse? Or the karma blessing?

[–]MexicanWaterGod 1 point2 points ago

[–]Ilyanep 1 point2 points ago

Yes, but can we get one with dirty money downvotes?

[–]MajesticTowerOfHats[S] 3 points4 points ago

Yep I posted it a little earlier http://i.imgur.com/pesGM.gif

[–]Ilyanep 1 point2 points ago

Yessss :D

[–]youravgguy 1 point2 points ago

I'm sure this will spread ask over reddit.

[–]WaiKay 1 point2 points ago

Can anyone link the original assuming there is one (with money).

[–]MajesticTowerOfHats[S] 1 point2 points ago
