anybody know GIMP? desperately need some help.
i'm making a zombie picture, need to make the blood around the mouth animated, dripping or something.

i already have a pic, just trying to animate parts of it. every walkthrough i find online just keeps giving me steps for text animation, or looks like it has steps to tools i don't even have.

any help is greatly appreciated!

1. I don't use gimp
so don't know what it's animation capacities are. In the absence of a better suggestion, why not make your images in Gimp using layers to make the different stages of the animation. Export the Gimp images as .gifs (use show and hide layers to get the animation frames) then use a freebie gif animator such as UnFreez http://www.whitsoftdev.com/unfreez/ to put it all together.

2. You probably would be better off using a dedicated GIF animation program..
There are a few freebies available, I've used one or two of them but it's been a while and I don't remember the details.
