Topic: Monkey Jam Help.

Hello! As you probably know I don't know alot about software and how to use it. So thats why I'm proposing this message.:) Ok, so first things first, I would be very gracious if someone could give me a full tutorial on how to use Monkey Jam. I've already asked vnanimation and rsteenoven ( i think thats how you spell it ) on Youtube about Monkey Jam and they gave me some advise on using it. However this doesn't work.
I've already downloaded it on my old laptop and I've tried again on my new one but it still doesn't work! Anytime I import old images and click "Preview" it freezes and I have to close it or it says "Not enough storage space". It also doesnt let me drag the lent of images down. Please can someone write a tutorial and be as specific as possible. I'd appreciate that.
Thanks for reading,
~BrightShadow99.;)

Re: Monkey Jam Help.

If it says you don't have enough storage space, then maybe you should make some room?

Because you are probably copying the images as you import them, meaning theres 2 copies so it takes up space.

Your tutorial is excellent! The only problem is that its only showing the top left corner or the top right corner of the images. They looked quite zoomed in aswell. I tried toggling with the image size on monkey jam but its not working. Any suggestions? mini/blankexpression Btw, I edited a picture with paint.net and added it to the film.

Re: Monkey Jam Help.

Thank you! I'm glad you though it was helpfull. About the image problems though...
It may be your camera settings. Are you importing the images? It could also be the images themselves. They could possibly be too big or something. perhaps you could give me a screenshot? Let me know if you need any more help
