Gif not showing at all

Post by Genderless »

I'm trying to make a large, animated wall paper with a gif, but regardless of what I try the gif won't even show.
In case the size of the "gif" is the problem, the dimensions of each image is: 1346x882.
I've deconstructed it, it's a 422 frame gif, so i have 422 separate png images in a folder named "ImagesFrames" under the @Resources folder
The naming of the png files are are: 2_frame_0001, 2_frame_0002, ect

I've tried using two different types of codes, one being:

Code: Select all

; Note - You will need to get and install ImageMagick from:
; http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php

; Convert your .gif image to a "Bitmap" with the following in a cmd.exe command prompt window:
; convert -coalesce "C:\PathToInput\InputName.gif" "C:\PathToOutput\OutputName.png"

And

The gif simply does not show, at all, i've tried to move it's coordinates and put it's position to topmost in case it was hiding but it isn't. I'm sure this problem has happened before, but I can't search the forums for "Gif" so i'm forced to make a new topic.
