[QUOTE="Collect89, post: 2002339, member: 15445"]I’ve been making GIFs of coins for a while now. IMO the GIF can be useful to describe modern coins with flashy luster & color. Of course, most of my ancient coins are lacking some of their original mint luster. (If only I had some of Ancient Joe’s coins with which to play.....). This is only the second coin (and first ancient coin) that I’ve shot using my latest fixture. The fixture makes it easy to photograph the coin & move the illumination. I can now create one (1) GIF file like this one in about the same time that it would normally take me to create a conventional flat image with both obverse & reverse. I seldom sell coins. However, I suspect that if I were to sell some flashy modern coins, a pretty GIF image might get some bidiots to pay more. Wa da ya think? [ATTACH=full]358944[/ATTACH] I’m hoping this GIF image will display properly at CT. The file is about 800k and I’m not certain about the file size restrictions & how it might be displayed at CT.[/QUOTE]
