How to Add Text to an Animated GIF Using Photoshop [Quick Tip]

（（资料来源：reativegifs.me）

When using a GIF from GIPHY.com, make sure you properly cite the original source. For more信息关于如何执行此操作，请查看GIPHY's FAQ page。您也可以使用GIF您是自己创建的if you'd prefer not to use GIPHY.

2. Right click and choose "Save Image As..."

找到完美的GIF后，右键单击图像，然后选择“将图像另存为...”，将弹出一个可以命名文件并将其保存到桌面，下载或其他文件夹中的屏幕。

3.使用Photoshop打开您的GIF。

将GIF保存在计算机上后，请使用Photoshop打开该文件。如果您没有Photoshop，也可以使用gimp, a downloadable program for manipulating images.

4.显示您的时间表。

When you first open your GIF in Photoshop, you'll probably see a set of layers in the right side panel, but the image won't be animated. In order to access this animation, click "Window" > "Timeline" to show the sequence of images in a linear animation. You can view the animation by clicking on any frame in the timeline and hitting the space bar.

5. Make sure have the top layer selected in the right side panel.

如果您希望在整个动画中应用文本，那么此步骤很重要。在这种情况下，顶层是“第8层”。如果选择了不同的图层，则您的文本只会显示在您选择的图层上，以及下方的图层。例如，如果我在此处选择“第6层”而不是“第8层”，则我的文本只会显示在1至6层上。

6. Add text to your GIF.

Here's the part you've been waiting for! To add text to your GIF, select the Text tool in the left side toolbar and drag a box over the image. Start typing your message out -- in this case we wrote "Goin' to INBOUND 2014!" to complement the excited emotion shown in the GIF. To change the font, weight, size, color, and alignment, l到顶部文本栏。

If you did this step correctly, you'll see your text appear at the top of your layer panel. If your text is not the top layer, that means you didn't have the top layer selected in step five. (If that's the case, go on and drag the text layer to appear at the top.)

如果您想测试您的GIF以查看其工作原理，只需导航到时间表，单击框架，然后击中太空栏即可观察它。

7.选择“文件”>“保存为Web ...”

一旦您将文本添加到GIF并对最终产品感到满意后，就需要以.gif格式保存它。为此，请单击“文件”>“保存为Web ...”

If you select the typical "File" > "Save As..." setting, your GIF will be saved as an immovable image and will not animate properly.

8. Double-check your settings, then click "Save..."

Once you've clicked "File > "Save for Web..." you'll be brought to the screen below. If you'd like to change any color or sizing settings, you can do that here. Otherwise, simply click "Save..."

9.命名您的文件并保存。

Once you've clicked "Save..." you'll be brought to a screen where you'll need to name your file and select the folder where you want this file to live. After you've named your file and put it in the appropriate location, click "Save."

10. Post your new animated GIF everywhere!
