I re-updated my game Hero's Journey last night, but I have a couple of questions.
First, I would like to (finally) change the name of my game here on Castle Paradox. Is there a simple way to do it, or should I create it as a separate game entry (and then have the old one deleted)?
Second, I noticed somebody's game having their screenshot set to cycle through a bunch of different screenshots. I was wondering how this is accomplished, since it seems that there is only one slot for uploading a screenshot.
Thanks in advance.

First, you can change your game name through the Game Edit menu, just as you would change the description or screenshot.
Second, CP does not yet support multiple screenshots. Cycled screenshots are produced by uploading an animated gif. When creating this gif, check your timing. Making it too fast hinders more than helps, as viewers struggle to make sense of each image as they flash by.

Thank you for the quick reply. Is there a 'standard' and/or 'easy' way to make an animated .gif file? On my computer I have MS Paint and, well, that's it in terms of graphic programs (besides the OHR's custom graphic editor). Does anyone have any suggestions for this?
Again, thanks in advance.

Well, I use the Gimp for all my .gif animation needs, but there are a lot of options to choose from.
Let's see what Google can dig up...
Aha!
This would be the animator I used in my really early days.
It's a real simple click-and-drag type of program.
Just save all of your frames as .gif files first. |

Hey, thank you TwinHamster. I suppose I should have just looked it up myself, but I really wasn't entirely sure what I was looking for. This looks easy to use, though. I will probably re-update in a couple minutes here.
