Turing an image into a animation sheet?

[manimani]

I have an image which i think would look good as a rotated animation.
Does anyone know how to achieve this? A tool that does it for you?
I am using corel paint shop pro x and also have gimp.
I tried copying the image 10 times and rotating the picture a little in each image, but this takes ages and the finished animation looks bad.

Note: By animation i mean that i iterate through the images and the images are sequentially numbered.

-geometry +0+0 is a generic way to not specify the tile size, but still adjust the padding.

Image magick will also rotate images, but it helps if you're good at batch programming. http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/warping/#rotate

yup - I also use imagemagick for that kind of thing. Got some stuff nicely automated using shell scripts.

great, that will make my life easier thanks

Do you want some C code for 90 degree and 360 degree rotation? It's not necc. pretty but I'm happy to send it your way.

If rotating it in real time isn't feasible, you can of course also just do it once at startup.

Thanks for the offer of code but i am going to use ImageMagic++, it can do other stuff, aswell as rotate, that would be cool to learn and useful for the future.

Cool. I've only ever used the command line tools. Let me know how you get on with the C++ interface.

Will do, had a go at getting it setup recently, i am using VS2008 and the binaries where built using VS2010, so i left it for a while as the build instructions for the source are not that straight forward. But i will come back to it soon as i am looking forward to creating some cool effects

Ya manimani try imagemagic, it will help you even it is very user friendly. If you need any help you can post it here i will help you out.

Given that you've dug up a two year old thread to tell him what he's already been told, I can only assume two things.

1. He's already sorted it.
2. You're a spambot.
