Is there a Step-By-Step Tutorial to show me how to export my finished spinning name & still background and insert it onto a web page? Thank you.

I don't think so Mobile. Welcome by the way! However the most common way of having your animation showing on a web page is to export the animation as an animated gif. Then import this gif into the html editor of your choice.

How To Animate Into a web Page?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm using Web Easy Professional 7 to build a web page.

I have created a Xara3d file (moving letters over a static background).

I have exported the file (animated GIF) into the Web Easy Professional 7, and the file will not animate (it only stays static).

If someone knows a simple procedure (step-by-step) as how to create, and export, and place into a web page, an animated file that will animate in the Web page -- I will be very appreciative.

Also, can you export an AVI into the web page or only an animated GIF?

Thank you.

Mobile are you viewing your web page in your web browser or within the Web Easy program?

I do not have experience with Web Easy but most WYSIWYG web page designers animated gif files will only display the first frame and not actually animate. You must save your web page and then view it within a browser to see the animation.

AVI files are not supported in web pages so if you want animation you will need either animated gif or Flash animation.

I have merged your two threads because they are asking the same question.

You're right!
It stays static when viewing within the Web Easy Pro 7 Program.
It does move when you publish and view in a web page.
However, the exported background (a static picture) disappears and the only animation is seen on the web page.
So, if one wants to animate/export with a picture background, is there a way? Or, only the moving animation can be used?
Thanks again.

You may have Transparent selected in the export dialog.

Make sure to uncheck the Transparent option.

I experimented with the Web Easy 7 Program and found the way to accomplish my web page effect was to:

Insert the background picture as a (jpg) onto the web page, then Insert the Animated GIF overtop of the (jpg) picture -- and it looked exactly as I built it in Xara3D.

Hope this helps others.

Thank you.
