Bumblebee Animated Gif

As a long time Denver Website Designer, I used to do a lot of animation in the old-days using Macromedia Flash (later purchased by Adobe). Flash made it easy to animate small objects such as this bumblebee illustration.

Now that Flash is extinct, however, I still do add subtle animations to websites I design. These bumblebee illustrations were animated using Adobe Photoshop and their Animation Timeline to create some small movement and exported as a looping animated gif.

This is a fun way to add a little bit of movement to a website. I can't say that Photoshop is as great as Flash was for creating animations, but it can do the trick! The Wix platform also has animation options for scrolling, rollovers and elements, though I most of the Wix animation options very sparingly as they can slow down load time for users.


These bumbling bumblebees are used on a couple client websites related to gardening, find them in the footers of these websites below. Also be on the lookout for an animated hummingbird on the Colorado Gardener site, using the same simple animation:
