ASEPrite - Pixel animator

[Ryne]

Not sure if you guys have ever seen this app before, but it's extremely useful in creating animations, and simple pixel graphics.

I've tried a dozen animators including photoshop's built-in animation tools but they are really ugly and hard to use for the most part. I still however prefer to actually create graphics in photoshop. Though, for example, if I create a small character that I think looks good, I'll just save it and open it in aesprite, and play with the animation tools to see If I can get it to look good. Once I'm done I can export it as an animated gif, or even as a tile set which is extremely useful. After that I can just jump back to photoshop and make minor adjustments to colours and stuff.

Anyway, it's free to use and for any of you who don't want to mess with, but still want to be able to create some graphics and animations.

It's great! I am a very bad with graphics and I don't need a full photoshop or GIMP to edit my poor sprites xD It's a nice tool, thanks for sharing it

Shame it won't compile on my computer, for some reason.

Do you have Linux? Does it return an error?

[Robin]

Do you have Linux?

Yeah.

Does it return an error?

It is all "error: dependent-name ‘Traits::address_t’ is parsed as a non-type, but instantiation yields a type" and then make decides to bail out.

What it says:

What Linux distro/version do you have?

[Robin]

Ubuntu 10.10 (yeah, I know...)

[Nixola]

I managed to compile it under Ubuntu 11.10, do you know if it works on a previous version?
P.S: What do you know?

[Robin]

I'm thinking I might need to install some library or something, but meh.

P.S: What do you know?

That my version is old.
