Re: Help me with LightSaber effect!

how long did it take?!

Re: Help me with LightSaber effect!

About 7 Minute's.

Re: Help me with LightSaber effect!

I can do lightsabers in GIMP in about 1 minute now, lol. I was doing a test frame by frame. Got quicker every time.

Same It takes longer having to pause and play tutorials everytime when you can learn it off by heart easily.

How?
And some samples plz!

Re: Help me with LightSaber effect!

Yeah, LSmaker download is playing up, what I did was download an earlier version. It worked then.

Re: Help me with LightSaber effect!

How did you download an older one?

Re: Help me with LightSaber effect!

You might as well use GIMP you made a cool one up above.

PS:I see a hair behind the minifigure!

Re: Help me with LightSaber effect!

Oh I downloaded it on another computer because the one I tried before has windows 7.
But I do like the GIMP results more even though it take's longer.
And with the Hair I think it's my Cat's....... Maybe!!!!!
I don't have grey hair so.......

Re: Help me with LightSaber effect!

I do mine in EffectsLab, but GIMP is a great place to go if you don't have the money for that. I wouldn't use LSMaker myself - I used to, and the results were less than average.
