I made a clearer pulse using 12 frames instead of 6. Here is the comparison: 1st one: 6 frames. Standard.  2nd one: 12 frames  |

Instead of making 12 frames why dont u just slow the time delay even further?

If you use more frames at the same speed, it looks better since it still moves. Just my opinion. I usually only use 3 to 4 layers in mine anyway. |

Personally, I don't really like the pulse effect, since Lightsaber's have more of a flicker.

I recommend watching the tutorial video that Kit posted in the first post, Ragoon. Its really quite simple.

It's called After Effects. Then Premiere. Then converting it to a moving .gif.

You can do the flicker in Photoshop CS3 (and probably Imageready CS2) as well.

Yeah. I've tested around with it, but haven't done anything with it lately.   |

I like how the light actually changes in the background, making it almost real.
