Guys, I REALLY need your knowedge. I have a lot of ideas that I wanna create but can't in a single art or in a fic, you know, let's say I wanna create the Pucca theme tune but with SpongeBob characters, I'd want to animate the idea.
The problem is, the only animation programme I have is GIFanimator, which is OK for making flashing messages (I made some of you guys blinkies with it, remember?), but I can hardly make a whole animation with it, and it leaves little colour changing dots AND I can't add music or voice.
Now, most of you are probably thinking, "Why doesn't she just buy Flash/Photoshop/whatever", but I can't buy expensive programmes and what have you cause I don't have the money to, even if I begged and begged me mum. And even if I DID have the cash, mum wouldn't let me download them cause if you look for Photoshop or whatever, it has payment thingies in US$, and mum seems to think that you can't buy things that are in American money, she refuses! And I can't find payments in British pounds. (This also means I'll have to work in MS Paint forever)
What I need is a free programme, that lets me:
1) Animate
2) Add music and voice
3) Is able to make animations I can upload to YouTube
And I dought there's a free programme that lets you do all that! But lets worry about the free bit later, I need a programme that lets me do those three things. I guess the YouTube thing sounds stupid, but I'd love to make fanvids and I can't use Windows Movie Maker and stuff to make fanvids with pics of Google. I'd want to post all original stuff that's more exciting than a slideshow-y type thing, and because half the pairings I support have hardly ANY pics to make a slideshow from (*cough* HANNAHXKANRIK *cough*). And if I made animations, maybe it could further my hope to work in art when I'm older, cause I certianly won't get much education on the subject from school.
So, any suggestions? Please?
