Is it possible to create a GIF?

Is there a way to create a GIF of the “Make Your Own Turtle Drawing”?

I think it is powerful for the students to see the drawing in action.

I currently have the students take a screenshot and paste it into Google slides, but I’m hoping that they could create a GIF instead.

I was finally able to use gifs.com, but it has a watermark. It would be cool to be able to have the students export as a GIF, but with a code.org watermark.

Unfortunately we don’t have this capability built into App Lab right now. But internally we tend to use a tool called LiceCap to make our animations. It’s free and pretty easy to use.

THANK YOU!!!

Any idea on LICEcap how to get rid of my cursor? It keeps showing up in my recordings even when not there. Thanks all!!

@marci.cabrera Could you elaborate more about the issue you are having?

Yes, I’ll share a gif and explain more when I get to work. Thanks!
