Good morning from the sunny west coast!
Last night, after spending hours reading through your comments and discovering new pages, I became inspired. I drew this little gif animation frame by frame on my crappy computer, as a small contribution and a kind of token of gratitude per say, to this amazing community that I'm still only discovering. As I meet more authors, post more, and gain more of a community I will add more minnows to this little animation. As of right now its just me. A little minnow emerging out, wide eyed and curious with an open mind to everything steem.
s/o to @artist1989 who gave me the inspiration for this animation.
Thanks for stopping by.

Its wonderful annimation i want to know which software you use because i am also searching for good software where i can make and edit amnimations and gif. By the way i think you are enjoying here lot. Keep going and nice post too.
I use Photoshop, but I wouldn't recommend it for animating because you have to draw each frame individually and its very tedious. If you're interested though, this is a good video that shows you how the process works.
I believe you are fitting in nicely. :)
why thank you :)
That's cute!
Thanks Jamie :)

very cool @mrslauren
thank you yahyaoa!
It will all start to make sense soon! What software did you use to make the animation?
I just used photoshop... its a very tedious process haha
If you've never used After Effects, the easiest way to describe it is Photoshop on a timeline... I haven't done any animating in Photoshop since university!
I don't have after effects though :( I only can afford photoshop right now, but maybe after a few more weeks of posting here, I'll be able to!
Thanks for your recommendation though!
I'd stick with Photoshop for animations like the one you made!
After Effects is a very, very complicated piece of software, used for things like visual effects in movies, and by disillusioned people like me! (I haven't touched it in 10 years... so a lot is bound to have changed!)
I love this animation. What program did you sue?
Thank you! I'm not very experienced with animation so I drew it frame by frame on photoshop. It's a very tedious process, I would not recommend it. Haha
Oh wow. More power to you. I don't know how to animate at all.
Maybe I'll film a tutorial and post it here!
that could be cool.
