Angels Touching Hearts - Colorizing Animated Alphas

Colorizing Animated Alphas

1. Open your letter in Animation Shop.

2. Click on Control/A, which will highlight all your frames, (put blue frames around them).

3. Right click on your image, and click on Export frames to PSP.

4. In PSP, choose the color you want in your Materials box.

5. Left click on your color, and the color box will open up. Find your Hue and saturation colors. In this case, the Hue is 172 and the Saturation is 222.

6. Then go up and click on Adjust, then on Hue and Saturation, then Colorize.

7. Enter your Hue and Saturation Numbers, then click OK.

8. Walla, your first layer is colorized.

9. You need to repeat #6 and #7 for each layer you have, although, your numbers will remain in the Hue and Saturation boxes until you change them. But just click on each layer of the image and change the colors.

It takes a little time, and effort, but if you don't like the color of the alpha or picture, it is worth it.

10. When you have finished, just update it back to Animation Shop,

right click to Break the link with PSP, and save it as a .gif.

You will need to repeat this process for each letter of your name.

This method can be used to colorize any image you have, or parts of any image you might want to re-color.
