I have this school project in my marketing class where we had to invent a product that was not actually out there (yet). So I thought of being able to put a screen on a t-shirt and have .gifs playing on it. I am trying to make a prototype on my computer by pasting a gif on an image of a t-shirt, cept I don't know how.

So can anyone paste these 7 .gifs on the t-shirt below? That way I would have 7 t-shirts. Also, if you want you can feel free to make you own shirt with a gif in it and I might use it in my presentation!

Thanks so much to anyone who helps. I am completely oblivious to how .gifs work.
 
PS- Man I have not been on these boards in a long time! Good to see some of my friends are still around!
 
I'll send yo some money if necessary. I just have no clue about how to do even the most basic of .gif work
 
It will just take a couple minutes, if no one has done this yet I can do it when I get home from work later today.

Do you want all the gifs to cycle on one shirt or do you want 7 seperate shirts each with a different picture?

Is really easy. It takes time though. ^_^

f ya have image ready. Open the gif file ya want (remember to make a copy). Then make the canvas the size of the tshirt. Make the gif the size of the chest area of the tshirt. Then just make a copy of each frame and put the tshirt in it. Then just flatten one frame to each tshirt copy. Then just save copy as... gif. and Ta da!

Eeep! So sorry, I was running all over last night and completely forgot. :O

If you have photoshop just open up the t-shirt which would be the first layer. Then create a new layer and import the gif. This will allow you to resize and manipulate the gif without changing the shirt.

Sorry again, I'll make a note on my phone so I don't forget to do this tonight if you still need it done.
 
I still do. My buddy was trying to teach me how to do it but to no avail. I guess gifs do not like Georgia boys :(

I do not know why these last two came out in color, I assume it has to do with how the background was saved on the original gif. Hopefully you can use them.

What I did was open the gif, then placed the shirt jpg image onto a new layer. I then made it a background layer so it would automatically be there on each frame. One of these gifs has like 280 frames so you would not want to try copying them one frame at a time. :D
