( its really quite easy )

for Quickness I will leave an animation here so that we are all

working with the same one

and we will be adding our name to this...

Open Animation Shop

             Right Click on the Animation and Save it to "MY DOCUMENTS"        

(that's yours ...lol not mine)

make sure you save it as a GIF

and open this in Animation Shop too  :O)

Now open a new image in Animation Shop 200x200 transparent will be fine for writing the text

Change the Colours to medium blue and a darker blue - like so...

Now Click on the A-tool (text tool)

and in the new image

and type in your name

(now mines only 5 letters long so you might need to adjust the text size depending on how long your name is)

I used size 28 - but anything around this will work..

(use size 20 if you've got more letters etc)

Now Click the little arrow on the colours to change them over

and do the name again in the same image- this time moving it slightly so it overlaps

Grab your Cutting Tool , and cut the Name image to size

Right click on the Name image and duplicate this so you have 3 frames now...

once you have 3 frames CTRL A and CTRL C the Name image

then..... CTRL A and CTRL E the Dolphin...and place the text on the dolphin...

Now Save the IMAGE :O) your done

And it should look something like this!

*knowledge* LOL

(CTRL A - Selects all the Frames)

(CTRL C then copies all the Frames)

and

(CTRL E - places the item in the Same Frame)

and the text shouldn't be jumping about all over the place

this is how you add Text to an Animation

Sometimes the animations have more or less frames- you need to make sure the Text is duplicated to the amount of frames of the animation!
