How To Use The Animation Tool

Step #1

Access Pixlr and select the Animation Tool on the main interface. Click to access the feature. Browse the available templates to select one that fits your project's theme, or start your animation from the ground up.

Step #2

Add new layers and frames to your animation by clicking the "+" icon at the timeline and layers panel In the Animation Tool. Rearrange them by dragging, and delete any unwanted frames or layers by clicking the trash bin icon.

Step #3

Use the different Pixlr tools to draw, add text, shapes, and stickers, or import images. Customize each frame by editing its content, adjusting the opacity, or applying filters and effects. Make sure to select the correct layer and frame while editing.

Step #4

Adjust the speed of your animation by selecting the time delay between frames. Click on the clock icon, and input the desired time in milliseconds (e.g., 1000 ms for a 1-second delay). Preview your animation to ensure it plays without hiccups.

Step #5

Once satisfied with your animation, click the "Export" button. Choose the appropriate file format (e.g., GIF or video) and quality settings. Save your animation to your device or share it directly on social media or via email.
