APNG Edit Description

An editor for creating Animated PNG images. APNG Edit is an editor for creating animated PNG images.It can create animation by assembling individual (per-frame) images, or by running a user-created script to render each frame in a Canvas tag.OverviewOne of the cool new features coming in Firefox 3 is support for a new animated image format. Browsers have supported animated GIFs for more than a decade, but the GIF image format has a number of limitations and is overdue for replacement. The PNG image format is now widely accepted as a superior replacement for static GIF images, but for animated GIFs there has not yet been a clear successor. The new Animated PNG format (APNG) is a simple extension to PNG, making it superior for animations too.The problemSo, what's wrong with GIFs? The two most apparent problems are that GIF images can only contain 256 colors, and lack support for partially-transparent pixels. This results in images which often look grainy or rough, and which do not smoothly blend into their background. A clever designer can somewhat mitigate these problems, but the tricks used don't always work well in different situations - especially if the image is animated. Requirements: · Mozilla Firefox What's New in This Release: · Added menu to preview against different backgrounds · Added button to save individual frames · Improved error handling
