Blinkies!
 
Here are some ADPi related blinkies for those of you who collect them for signatures on other boards, LJ, blogs or just wherever.
I made a few of them, found a few and one was a gift, but here they are for you web saavy ADPi's to use!

Omigosh!!! I never saw those before!!! They are SOOOO cute!!!!
Thank you for sharing, <> Sis!!!

Adpinurse-I wanted to let you know that I copied and pasted your blinkies onto an email that goes to my Guild girls-juniors and seniors in high school-it's a volunteer organization that most of the high school girls in our town belong to in order to have lots of activities on their college applications and rush recs. Just thought I'd advertise a little!! Several of the seniors are going to colleges that have ADPi chapters, so I have a feeling I'll be pretty busy this summer with recs. And, since I had to email them a reminder about their hours being due, I thought it wouldn't hurt to enclose a little ADPi advertising with it!!:D

Crashing - I used to be a blinkie FANATIC! But, I was using PSP and the program died on me!

WOW!!! I never, ever thought of using them for recs or such!!

*manaical laughter*

Oh, my mind is running wild with the possibilities!!!! :D

Blinkies
 
ADPiNurse:

Just wanted you to know that I am STILL enjoying and using your blinkies these days, on a lot of ADPi-sister correspondence. However, because I am not very computer-literate, I do have to keep coming back to your original post to right-click and copy. I have found that I can't make a copy from a copy-don't know why, but I'm sure you do. Anyway, as long as this post is here, I'm OK! Basically, just wanted to say thanks, again! The blue ADP that clicks on and off, the one that you posted separately, looks great at the top of an email, and the one with the violets looks great after the signature. GREAT WORK!

adpi*violet 07-06-2005 02:26 PM

You're welcome and I'm glad you're enjoying them. :)

That would be adpi*nurse who's the computer whiz!! I'm just a good "please tell me how to do that" type person!

But I will share what I know! :D

WLFEO 07-15-2005 10:26 AM

Bumpity-bump!

BBelleADPi 07-15-2005 10:32 AM

Adpi*nurse needs to add the sparkly violet to this thread, so when I come back to this thread to copy things, it will be on here!!:D

adpi*violet 07-15-2005 11:51 AM

I'll have to see if I can make you some! Give me a few days... but I'll go post them in the Alpha Phi board.

WLFEO 07-17-2005 05:25 PM

adpi*nurse, I use your blinkies all the time, too! I love them!

WLFEO 08-17-2005 10:58 AM

bumping again- I have to keep these near the top!:p

adpi*violet 08-18-2005 06:28 AM

Hey ladies- I edited the original post to include all of my ADPi blinkies. Hope that makes it easier for you to continue to find them!

adpi*violet 08-18-2005 10:24 AM

I also made two more ADPi blinkies today. See the original post!

BBelleADPi 08-18-2005 10:40 AM

Oh, I love them! The heart especially!! (Runs off to send an ADPi an email so she can show them off...)

adpi*violet 10-22-2005 09:52 AM

I got bored and made a few new ADPi blinkies!
I'm finishing up the other one, but here's the first.

Hehehe thanks! That's super nice of you!


These blinkies are sooooo cute!

WLFEO 06-07-2006 10:34 AM

I know I'm usually the one who bumps this, but I like to keep it near the top!

BBelleADPi 06-07-2006 04:07 PM

Yes, we heart our ADPi blinkies!!:)

BBelleADPi 06-16-2006 12:59 PM

I just HAD to bump this today, as I am helping some girls with their resumes for rush, and I always include some of these as a little "tongue-in-cheek" advertising!!:D

adpi*violet 06-17-2006 07:23 PM

I was going through my web links and realized I never put the last ADPi blinkies I made here on GC for you ladies to use.
Here they are:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...ndsviolets.gif

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...reachother.gif

Unfortunately, I can't add them to my original post because it says I can only put 10 images in each post.
Maybe Honey could add them to the top of her first post to this thread, since she is the first one who replied to it?
Either that or I can split them up into 2 sections, but then they won't all be on the front page anymore. What do y'all think?


Edited to add- can't add them to original post :(

adpi*violet 07-08-2006 09:56 AM

Bumpity Bump! I feel like making a new one. (Read- I want to procrastinate and not study pharmacology for my upcoming test.) I'm out of ideas though. Does anyone have a suggestion or something that they think will look good?

BBelleADPi 07-10-2006 01:24 PM

How about:
1. Another lion one, but a ferocious lion this time.
2. One with a cute slogan, like from rush or something.

I know that anything you come up with, we'll ALL love!!!

ragtimerose 07-10-2006 05:31 PM

I love all the little blinkies! They're so cute. I'm not an ADPi, but I love violets just the same! I'd love to create some blinkies for my own sorority. How did you do it?

</crash>

adpi*violet 07-11-2006 08:11 AM

ragtime rose-
I use Adobe Photoshop elements. This is an explanation for that program. If you have a different program, you could probably look up how to do it via their "help". Just look up "animate." If you don't have a program, there are a few on the web. Look up blinkie tutorial and it will walk you through it.
The traditional sized blinkies are 150 by 20 pixels. So open a new, blank canvas that size and then just start drawing. I probably do it the long way round (I don't make too many), but to get them to blink, you need two or more alternating layers. For example, to make a blinking edge, you would make dashes around the outside of your canvas, save it somewhere (save for web, usually in gif, but do not click the box that syas animate- that's for later), then go back and move the pixels slightly to the right or left, so that they "move" when you animate it. Or you can change the color. Either way, save your slightly different canvas as a different name than your first, again in gif. Whatever part you don't want to "blink" needs to be EXACTLY the same on each canvas/layer. When you have all your layers made and saved with different file names, open a brand new canvas, plus all your temporary files. Copy your first image (the whole 150x20 pixels) and paste into your new canvas. Copy the second, slightly different image (the whole thing) and paste ON TOP of the first image in your new canvas. It will show up as a layer. Do the same for each layer you have. Then save your new canvas, with all the slightly different layers, "for web" and this time check the box that says animate. Instead on mushing all the layers together, it will keep them separate and as part of the file, will run through them as a "slide show". You can change how fast or slow you want the different layers to go- I usually do about .25 seconds, some slightly slower, some faster.
Hope that helps! PM me if you are confused.

WLFEO 07-18-2006 12:04 AM

Can you make one that says, "Violets to you!" or something along that line?

adpi*violet 07-18-2006 10:50 PM

BBelle and WLFEO- I'll see what I can come up with in the next few weeks. :) Thanks for the ideas.

adpi*violet 07-19-2006 10:32 PM

Three variations of a new blinkie for your viewing/borrowing/using pleasure:

I LOVE it- Thanks! Or should I say, "Violets to you!" I am going to use this one a lot in my emails.
You're the best!

adpi*violet 07-21-2006 09:41 AM

You're very welcome!
They're fun to do and they are getting a lot easier to make!
