I'm taking a 2000-frame (80 seconds) time-lapse movie today of the PNLTC layout at the Oregon Convention Center. What's a good way to take a whole bunch of frames and string them together into an MPEG movie? The source images, once I get them off my (...)

I never made them to be competitive, yet still I'd like to share. So can we have (...) (22 years ago, 5-Apr-03, to lugnet.animation)
