There are more images below- but first you must request permission to use the animations on this page. All are copyright 2001, 2002 dennis hudson. So just send me an email
requesting permission, and I'll send you one back with the terms of
use, okay? Oh- below there are also several tiny animations
like this  which are designed for email use next
to your signature.

HOW TO USE:
(1)- Right-click on an image or animation. Choose SAVE AS and download to your harddrive. From there, you can paste into your web page. For email use, you probably cannot paste directly into the email. Instead, click INSERT | IMAGE, and your email program will give you a BROWSE option to find the animation file, which you then insert into your email.
(2)- Some images and animations are "personalized", i.e., a community name is included. You will need to edit the image to show your community name. Some help with this is offered below. Or you can email me- I will help as time permits.
(3)- Some images and animations tell part of a story, and the viewer is invited to click for the complete story. You will need to create a page with the rest of the story, and link the image to that page. Be creative! Research the story and write it. If you don't know how to put it on the web, see below.
(4)- It is not required, but I would be grateful if you would notify me of the URL where you have put the animation or image. Thanks.

Group A. These images require creativity on your part, i.e., you will need to research and write info and upload to a linked webpage.

Need help changing an image?

                            I can help. For example, the El Paso Egg animation at the top can be changed to insert your
                community's name instead. I'll be glad to do things like this as time permits. Just email me. Meanwhile,
                keeping in mind that the ONLY content which Users are  permitted to change (or add) is the name of
                a community in an image, you might like to know how to change the community name in an image
                (or insert a community name in an image) yourself.

                            Static images are all created in MSPaint. This is the little program that may be in your Microsoft
                Accessories box that may be now showing at the bottom of the screen. Simply right-click the image you
                want, click SAVE AS, and save it to someplace on your system. To edit the image, DO NOT then
                try to open it as a file in the usual way, because this will open MSPhoto Editor. Instead, open your
                MS Paint program; click FILE | OPEN, then locate and open the image you downloaded. It is
                recommended that you create a copy of the file first as backup so you don't have to come back here
                for it if you don't like your work.

                            Animations are done in 2 steps. The static image for each frame is done in MSPaint. These are
                then loaded into JASC PaintShopPro Animation. If you have JASC, you probably have its Animation
                Shop too. But if you've never used it, it's a little tricky to find. Open JASC, and click:

                            Once you get that going, then FILE | OPEN, and locate and open the animation you got from
                this page. You can actually change the community name while in there (look at the toolbars), since
                JASC has its own "paint" program. Or, you could SAVE (as bitmaps) or COPY the frames you need
                to change, exit JASC, and work on the frames using MSPaint. Then re-insert them into the animation.

                            TIP: When creating an animation from scratch with JASC Animation, start with the command

                            If you do not have JASC Animation, you may have some other animation program. Do a
                search of your system like this: In the lower left corner of your screen right now, click

                            If you really need me to send you the individual frames of any animation in MSPaint,
                I'll be glad to do so, as time permits. Just email me. Later, I may actually post all of the frames on a
                webpage.

                            Here's how. At upper left of your screen, click FILE | SAVE AS. Then choose a location on
                your harddrive to put this page (you may want to write it down). Then, when you're offline, go to the
                file and double-click it. It should then open to look just like this page. I do recommend this because
                you never know- I may have to move this site sometime. If you do download it, still check back here
                to see if there's fresh content. Then you can download again and replace the old file. And ALWAYS
                keep me updated on your current email address- it is a condition of use. I will NOT share your email
                address with others outside the context of this animations project, unless requested by a Baha'i
                institution to do so.
                            WHY DO I WANT YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS? First of all, your use of these animations is
                free, and it is my right to impose conditions on that use. Having your current email address is such
                a condition. Important practical reasons for this include:
                                    1. Notifying you of new animations
                                    2. In the unlikely event that some image or animation is found to be not in the best
                                        interests of the Baha'i Faith in some locality, I want to be able to simply load an
                                        address folder with a note to let you know, instead of an Institution of the faith
                                        having to announce it and try to find everyone who's using it. Things happen, huh?
                                        After all, what's good in Beijing might not play well in Podunk.

                            I've built a very friendly tutorial to help you. It features building with Netscape Communicator, but
                the basic principles can easily be applied to Internet Explorer, Front Page, etc. It's an actual webpage with
                step-by-step instructions for how to edit it (make changes to it), and how to open a brand new page. It also
                includes instructions for how to upload your webpages onto the World Wide Web. And how to register a
                domain name (for about $15 per year or less), and how to get site-hosting for your domain name done at
                no cost other than what you are already paying your internet provider. I'll send it to you. "Playground".
                You'll like it. Click here. You MUST include your name and Baha'i I.D. number.
