Animated gifs

Animated gifs are easy to use without any coding. There are thousands of free animated gifs available online for download, like this one. Just copy and paste them into your website for instant animation effects.

Resources for free animated gifs include gifs.net and animatedgif.net

You can also make your own animated gifs if you have a series of images that would form an animation when joined up. This can be gifs you have made in Paint, or photos or movies from your camera or webcam, or you can even download images from the web or splice a section of a youtube video to make into an animated gif.

When you have your images, there are free animated gif makers you can use online. Have a look at gickr.com or picasion.com

Flash animation effects

Flash can create impressive custom animation effects in a website. Animated elements can include menus, banners, buttons, or display components. One advantage of Flash over an animated gif is that flash elements can be interactive, for example they can change their appearance or activate an animation effect when clicked or moused over.

This scolling text ticker was made with Flash at FlashVortex for free. The animation code is hosted at FlashVortex and it was simple to paste a short line of code in this website. More advanced options are also available, such as hosting on your own site.

Website logos

You can make your own professional looking free logos for your website from services like creatr.cc and cooltext.com. Some of their logo templates are animated, and they have a large range of fonts available. You can also use Powerpoint to create logos with a combination of graphics (make your own with drawing tools, or use clipart) and text. Save the logo as a .png file out of the Powerpoint menu and upload it to your website.
