Animate PNG Files in Windows and Ubuntu

Windows: Using PhotoShop

With the help of PhotoShop, creating an animated PNG file in Windows is a breeze. Here's a quick guide:

• Open PhotoShop and import the images you want to animate.
• Create a new layer for each frame of the animation.
• Edit each layer to create the desired animation.
• Once all the frames are created, go to File > Save for Web.
• In the Save for Web dialogue box, select the PNG format and check the “Animate” checkbox.
• Click Save and choose a location to save the animated PNG file.

Ubuntu: Using the apngasm Package

To animate PNG files in Ubuntu, you first need to install the apngasm package. To do this, enter the following command in the terminal:

“` sudo apt install apngasm “`

Once the package is installed, you can use the following command to create an animated PNG file:

“` apngasm -o output.png input1.png input2.png input3.png “`

This command will create an animated PNG file named “output.png” from the three input PNG files.
