Quickly generate animated GIFs from HTML.
Quickly generate animated GIFs from HTML.
Using a "selector" (e.g. "p") you select the element which should animated. The "p" selector would select all p elements as candidates. A new GIF frame is created for each selected element
Assume the trivial HTML below:
<div> <p> </p> <p>Hello</p> <p>World</p> </div>
The "p" selector would create a GIF with three frames, one for each p element.
The GIF generator will create the first frame and set the visibility of each p to "hidden" - hiding all elements.
Then it will create a frame for each animated element and set the visibility to "visible" for each of them.
The hello world sample GIF can be seen here:
The app is using "standard" jquery selectors, some examples below:
Selector | Description |
---|---|
p | Selects all "p" elements |
.myclass | Selects all elements using the "myclass" class |
span.foo | Selects all "span" elements using the "foo" class |
Here is another mini-sample using spans, the selector is set to "span".
<div style="text-align: center; font-size: 18px; width: 200px; height: 200px;"> <p> </p> <span>This is</span> <span>a lame</span> <span>example</span> <span>of some HTML</span> <span>converted</span> <span>to a </span><span>GIF</span> </div>
You can tell the GIF generator to shuffle the elements as show in the sample below.
The GIF generator can be told to show each frame individually, hiding all elements except one.

Launch the app.
Check out this other version for another platform.
This web app can be used FREE of charge.
This app is using a feature (create images from HTML markup) that is NOT AVAILABLE in the Safari browser. With that said, you can launch the app in Safari but you can't use this critical feature. Sorry...
Use this app to design a sig pic. A sig pic (short for signature picture) is an image you can quickly insert into the Gmail new message window using the add-on Bjorn's Sig Pics.
