RE: Community Service Announcement: You Control Steem. Vote for Witnesses.

in #steemit8 years ago (edited)

can i ask what program you used to make that video or gif that you have made showing how to scroll down to vote? it is very informative to see it like that to show others:)

Sort:  

Sure! I first did a screen recording with QuickTime Player to create a .mov file. I have ffmpeg and gifsicle installed and ran this command:

ffmpeg -i vote_for_witnesses.mov -s 600x400 -pix_fmt rgb8 -r 10 -f gif - | gifsicle --optimize=3 --delay=15 > witnesses.gif

its above my pay grade!! haha :) man i wish i had these sorts of skills!! wow i def need to learn how to code some day!

Running a command line isn't coding. :) If you have ffmpeg and gifsicle installed, it's quite easy. Just replace vote_for_witnesses.mov with your movie file and witnesses.gif with the output file you want. You can google for how to install those two command line tools (as well as instructions for tweaking the parameters). Most of what I've learned, I learned through Google. Sometimes using a search engine well is the only skill you need. That and persistence.

shows you how much i don't know! haha :)
thanks for trying to help me understand
