Does anybody have any spare head loop gifs, preferably
mostly facing the camera but slightly not perfectly straight
ahead like this one? I want to attach about three of them
together at the neck and have a program randomly change the
frames to make it all weird n shit behaving independently.
Preferably about 20 frames instead of only 5 like this one.

I could use about 50 frames of something with cool visual
transformation like a cacoon turning into a butterfly. I
guess I should search 'the internet'.
How can I put a gif on the internet easily for others to see
if its file size is too big for here?

Search YTMND, there's almost anything you could think of.
Sometimes you can just right click and save the gif,
sometimes you have to view the source and search for it,
then paste it in your browser and save.

how do you gif-icize this:

right click saves it as .htm
viewed source and saw a .gif path at bottom and pasted into
browser, didn't do anything.

Where did you find that- in the right click 'view page
source'? towards top/middle/bottom?

I wish I had a gif of a close human head where the camera
simply circles around it once always facing it, ending up
exactly where it started (1 loop around a head). I think I
can make a program make it look like one head is getting all
twisted up like licorice, alternate the twistiness, etc.
Anybody have anything like this. That's why I want that
spinning computer gif, but a human head would be much much
better.

excellentedness. I'm gonna licorice-icize this and see if
its cool then post the gif on imageshack; hopefully that
will allow me to share it. If it's cool, maybe someone will
donate their yummy human head to me. I wish I had a nice
human kidney right now; I'd squeeze all the urin out of it
into my mouth then eat the kidney.

A lot of them are compressed though, so you can't cut them
up into separate frames.

These are perfect. Where the hell did you find THREE of
them. I've had trouble finding 1 for a long time.

It'd be much better with as many frames as possible.
Actually all I need is facing forware, turn, turn, facing
backwards (I can flip the frames for the other side). Like
200 frames or something would be very awesome, if you happen
to have such a thing in your archive of spinning human heads
(I assume you do since you are the world's largest
collector)

how are you going to licoricize the head? are you going to
cut it into horizontal slices where each slice is from a
different frame?

Yeah! Something like that in python. It would take me like
15 hours just to think about the pseudocode because I have
down syndrome when thinking in whiles and ifs, then another
week to make a completely incorrect program then another
week to finally give up and start over, etc. You could
probably have a complete program in 30 minutes.
it should go something like:

ALL rows frame 1
ALL frame 2
ALL frame 3
(in sync for now)

(slowly goes out of sync)
maybe top half of pic is frame 4, bottom half frame 5
5 & 6
6 & 7

(more out of sync)
into thirds
7 & 8 & 9
etc.

etc into fourths, then fifths, etc.

I guess...

Points: 21451 Status: Lurker



but the whole thing should probably go in and out of sync
maybe even in non linear ways which would be a pain in the
ass, and maybe in general it turns left for a bit, slower,
stop, turn right a bit, slower, stop.. repeat.

It seems like it should work because each frame is mostly
the same, but slightly different, and therefore chopping to
the next frame in the next row (instead of next frame)
should be a fairly smooth transition.

Here is my first pseudocode draft:

x = 3
y = -5
while: if:
... no that's wrong.
if: while:...
ok, if it's a while, then if an if, but if it's an if, then
if a while while iffing an if only if x = 0 (then add 1 to
y).
add 4 to x if the while terminates only if y = 1.

return spinning head

You can't get the effect you want in a regular gif

I have no idea. Well as far as I know I'd have to repeatedly
copy and paste rows like a million times. But it's fun to
have a program because then you can alter it (yeah right,
anything I make will be an unmaleable piece of shit)

I also never heard of steve reich.

to be more clear, I don't want to make ONE image of a
twisted head, but rather a complete animation of it turning
as normal but WHILE it is turning it gets twistier and
twistier (ie at this time some rows turn faster), then
untwistier and untwistier (some rows turn slower) until it's
back in sync as a normal turning head, then retwist in the
opposite direction or something.

DAMN you are quick. Thanks a lot! I already played with it a
bunch and it will be helpful to 'study' it because I'm still
pretty much a beginner. It took all this time just to save
your output as this gif (I think there is a library or
something that automatically saves images to a gif, but I
never used it yet). All that is needed is a lot more frames
in the original turning head like that one I linked to
above. Then it won't be so choppy hopefully, still a little
choppy unless there were like a thousand frames (I could
eventually buy a movie camera and film REALLY slow moving
around something, then figure out how to turn it all into
individual images to load in the program. If the end result
was super smooth, you could do other weird stuff like
applying a second twist on top only around the horizontal
instead. This only has 8 frames so is pretty choppy but you
can already see the forehead moving first and the jaw last.
I'm gonna try loading those images of that turning
cartoonish one instead.

If there were a thousand frames, that'd be awesome. There
would be no large chunk blocks and the nose would just
stretch across smoothly, etc. That'd be weird.

This is Sofa King awesome.

Compare this with the 'normal' head in the link in my post
above that says 'this one has a lot of frames but is
cartoony with sections missing.'

(the program, made by jkd, is much smoother flowing but I
needed a small number of frames to post here).

Medium twistiness :
