Okay, my gifset won’t show up on my dashboard, I don’t understand why... :/
Edit: So, it was the size! My god!

Hi! I´m sorry to bother you with this unsolicited advice but I read your tags on the City Hunter gifset and they look good imo but I think if you used the regular sizes (268x-) maybe they would be less crunchy since tumblr wouldnt resize them.
thank you :D i think when i put them into the format where it shrinks them down and puts them 2 next to each other they look a looot more crunchy so i put them all separate. but ty sm! i make gifs just for fun so i'm not super good at making them look the best they can for tumblr

for the gifmaker asks, if you're still going: 21, 26, 27, 34
Ask a graphic / gif maker
I sure am, thank you for the ask!
21. How much time do you spend on a single graphic / gif?
any time between 10 minutes and 6 hours. obviously it depends on the type, straightforward gifs with basic coloring tend to be quick. but if I'm doing something more complicated, extra coloring, typography, effects, etc, yeah it's taking me ages. particularly because i keep going back and forth on things
26. Give a graphic and or gif maker a quick tip!
hmmm curves and levels are life savors
27. Advice you’d give yourself when you were starting out?
just keep going. (and maybe look up a tutorial or two before diving straight in?)
34. Gif makers, how many frames do you import? (And why!)
depends on the gif for sure. the smaller the size the more frames (i go for 100 sometimes for 268x gifs if i think the scene has much to offer) or if i'm doing a transition (around 20 frames for each gif) or blending etc. depends on the scene itself too, what i think needs to be in or doesn't. so yeah it's honestly a case by case situation. i screencap the entire scene though and start deleting the frames i don't want before importing

The best thing about it is that this takes place in Sherlock’s mind palace & two totally different men have the same reaction to him and his actions.

hi!! i'm sorry to bother you, i was just wondering if you could let me know how you upload your gifs to tumblr? even a couple of screenshots of the process would really help (specifically of the uploading part after the gifs r already made.) i'm having trouble because when i upload them, they become part of the "text" of the post if that makes sense. when most people upload gifs it's like the gifs are separate from the text which is why the creator's username shows up below the gifs.
thank you!!!
Hi! Sorry i didnt have my computer with me last night. But anyway you're probably uploading as text? All I do is go to photo
then, if you're uploading them side by side, it should be 268x width, if you're doing one per row, it should be 540x, and 3 per row is 177x 178x 177x

i’d honestly forgotten how nice it was to make gifsets in 268x :)) i think i’m slowly moving away from large gifsets and focusing more on smaller ones especially when it comes to those with 8-10 gifs.
