This is my first ever animated GIF file. 

It was created using Adobe flash CS6, in the Adobe Master Collection.
I first created a new file in Flash CS6, and selected "Action Script 3.0". I ensured that my stage size was set to the appropriate setting (550 by 400 pixels).





 Then, I located and imported my chosen rocket graphic file into library. I clicked on the "modify" option and selected "convert to symbol", before saving the rocket as a graphic.
I selected the 75th frame and made it into a key frame. I dragged the rocket to the top left corner of the screen, just off the stage. Next, I dragged the rocket in a straight line across the stage from left to right. I then clicked frame one, held down the "shift" key, and clicked on frame 75. This created an arrow between the two frames in the timeline. Finally, I right clicked the rocket and selected "classic tween" before saving as a GIF file.

      And how to make them.

 Zoom And Rotation Graphic

·           First I created a New File (Action Script 3.0) in Flash CS6.
·        I then went to Windows - Property on the right of the screen make sure you have a frame rate of 25fps and a stage size of 600 pixels by 550 pixels in order to enlarge the stage.






·        I then imported the image of the eye brought it into to the library.
·         I dragged the image to the stage.
·         I used Modify - Convert to convert the image to a Symbol (as a Graphic).







·         Next, I used Modify - Transform - Scale to reduce the image in Frame 1 to a maximum of 40 px in height.
·         I selected a key frame of 100, followed by Modify - Transform - Scale to enlarge the eye.
           Finally, I selected Window - Transform and Rotate the image at least 180 degrees and used the right Mouse button to apply a Classic Tween.
