Re: An Animated Gif of the World Trade Center Beam Trip
Thanks Emily, it was really easy with that program.
The video was taken with my camera and since it was sunny and I had no viewfinder, I was just hoping to at least catch some of it... and thrilled that it turned out as well as it did.
It was such a privilege to watch; I was standing at the roadside with a flag in one hand and the camera in the other. When the participants saw me, so many responded with horn blowing, waving, hand gestures.

An Animated Gif of the World Trade Center Beam Trip
On Saturday, July 2, 2011, a beam from the former North Tower of the World Trade Center followed a local route from Angola, IN to a memorial site at the Osolo Fire Department in Elkhart, IN.
The beam, draped with a flag and carried on the red truck, was escorted by police, fire departments and an estimated 15,000 motorcyclists. As the beam came by this location, a local pilot flew over and did a big dip to pay tribute.
The entire procession took about 20 minutes; so I made this .gif from the first few minutes of the video I took.
I found this program on the net http://www.photoscape.org/ps/main/index.php and it's really simple to make .gifs. I saved screen captures from my video, then just dragged the pics I wanted into the .gif maker. It gives the options of how fast you want your frames to display, either as a group or individually. In mine, I slowed down the couple of the truck carrying the beam.
