OT-Graphics help

[Mr Sandman]

Hi all,

as always, this is a knowledgeable group so i like to ask the odd question cus there is always someone who can help out with advice!

I have a vb.net program i am writing and i want to include a moving diagram showing fluid flow through pipes, doing this in vb is a real bind, the best way to do this is likely to be making an animated gif.

something along these lines would be great-

anyone advise if this is the best way to go about it? And if so can you give me some guidance?

Cheers

GIF animation

FLASH SWISH a lower cost alternative or Swish are potentially much more effective, but they come with a steeper learning curve (depending on the complexity of the task). There is a wealth of tutorials and support forums out there for Flash and Swish (probably also for gif animation).

If you don't already have Flash then I think you can get a free version of Swish that would help you do that sort of thing.
