Question.

[Pencil_weilder]

Hi all.. its been quite awhile since i've frequented here due to lack of computer from breakage, but i'm back now to annoy you guys with some simple noob questions and stuff of that sort XD

ok. so i've drawn a short animation. the first one i've never gave up on in the middle of making it, btw.

its all finished. i've drawn 100 individal frames and it looks fairly descent when i flip through the pages like a flip book. but i want to put it on the net, however i can't find any kind of program or way of scanning all the drawings and putting them in order to show as an animation.

i was wondering if you guys knew any ways or programs etc.. to help me out?

cheers
matt

One option is DigiCel's FlipBook (http://www.digicelinc.com/). The lite version is $99, but has cool features like batch scanning (if your scanner has an auto feeder) and frame registration based on the punch holes in your paper (you can always punch your own holes if you're not using real animation paper).

also adobe after effects but that a bit more expensive

Plastic Animation Paper is a free animation program, but to import jpegs you would need the home version (which I use). It is about $130 (99 euro).

Also there is the GIF Constructor by Alchemy Mindworks for $24 if the free stuff dosen't work out for you. (I used this before I got Flash)
