How I make gif stamps in GIMP!

Hi! So I thought I would make a tutorial on how I personally make my animated stamps in GIMP! With images to help!

Firstly, have your stamp base, I use old stamp templates I found or from my own stamps. Then you want to add your gif as a layer.

Once you've opened it as a layer, all the gif layers will appear! You want to first resize the background layer by scaling the layer.

This stamp has an interior width and height of 95x50 pixels, so I make sure to scale the layer to fit. Make sure width and height aren't linked because not all gifs will fit that size naturally.

Then it is very important to merge the background layer with the stamp template layer, this way when you make the gif it looks like a stamp!

Once that's done scale all your other layers to the same width and height so that they too will fit in the stamp! Then what you want to do once that is finished is to open filter > animation > optimise (for gif).

Then once you've done that you can click playback to see if the gif is all right!

Once that's done it is time to export it by going export as, now I always have to change my file to a .gif type in order for it to work. Once you've done that hit export.

Then it will show a pop up window, it is very important you hit check on animation! Otherwise it won't work!

Once that is done, you can now hit the final export and your gif stamp will be made! See my final product below!

Raw photo.

2. Darken background w/ masking (focusing on blacks and darks, leave highlights alone because it will get rid of the delightful little bokeh on the water surface. Also popped the saturation & warmed up white balance)

3. Run De-noise (not necessary per-se, but pulls some details back into some of the feathers and I'm a recovering pixel peeper.)

4. Final touches: open in photoshop and dodge/burn the particles in the water, and around the backlit feathers to pull a little more contrast/saturation. Also took a little saturation out of the lightest feathers of the ducklings bc they pulled too orange for me, and knocked the white balance a little more green - the whole image was feeling a little too pink for me.

Full-size before and afters.

This is pretty much the exact process I follow with backlit images. I try to keep most of my edits "true to life" - but there is a lot of subjectivity in that statement lol.

Image Deets:

Nikon z7ii x. 180-600.

600mm

F 6.3

1/800 (handheld/propped up on a tree root)

ISO 2000

The usual set up. I often lose the tripod bc it doesn't get low enough for me most of the time. So I end up balancing my camera on my feet, or a root, or something.

Made a little Kay Faraday edit for funzies and boredom. Just a slight change but I think it still looks neat :]

Should I do more of these?
