Load the pictures into After Effects. Put them on the timeline one on top of the other. Stagger their position on the timeline. Change the opactiy at the beginning and end of each picture to make it look like it's fading. That's the best you'll get because morphing takes a lot more. I was trying to do the opacity thing in photoshop cause i dont have after effects. is there anyway to do it in there? |

Photoshop doesn't animate. You'd have to use ImageReady.
You'd make several layers of each photo and bring the opacity down to 0% progressively through out the frames then bring it up from 0% on the next ones at the same time.
It's possible but it's a lot of layers and work.

Like I said, morphing is a whole other ball game and it requires software (or plugins) I don't think many people have. When it's done on the web it is run on a website's server through a program that scans the images and figures out points to match up on it's own. If someone has the software you can match up points manually and actually come up with a better morphing than what you'd see off the web.
I'm pretty sure it's possible to do in Flash, though it's been a super long time since I've messed with that so you'd be better off asking someone who is very familiar with the software.

Hello my friends!
Can I get a red saber put into this hilt?
It doesn't need to flash...I want to keep the white background!
Thanks a million!

I understand what you're saying but I don't think it needs to be darker for it to work. I see a lot of that on here where someone blackens the background to get the saber to show up and there are just other ways of doing it without modifying the background to that degree. Same with this pic. It has that nice glow to it, I just played with the settings and transformation on the shape. The site here resizes the picture so you can't really tell. But if you open the pic full size it looks right. Besides, there's more than one way of doing everything. The guy wants to keep the white background, I did that and kept the saber visible. I can still make it better than this if he wants.
