Could someone tell me or give directions to a tutorial on how to create an animated background for SE themes?
(Did my first themes and getting addicted to theming!!!)

It all depends on what program you choose to create the animations in. I used to use Flash, but find Imageready works better for themes because of the link up with Photoshop.

www.good-tutorials.com is a good place to start for basics.
www.thewebmachine.com has some good animation tutorials too.

Practice is probably the best way to learn though.

Thanks for the links, will start learning right away!

Thank you my friend, your source of tutorials was excellent!!!
here are the results after one day!!
Will make it into a theme for the v800 this weekend!! Lets see how it will go! (still havent tryed to crop or resize animated gifs

Nice!

Ulead gif amimator v5 will allow resize, crop and animation merge. Tis an excellent util to use.

Tutorials are fantastic, Simon, specially for the absolute beginners in animation, like myself. I only have time to make my first fire animation, but even that makes me happy. Thank you.

My second lesson. I think this will become my new passion?!

that looks good Jasnasto!

@Beano.
