Posted: Mon Oct 22, 2007 8:34 amAs a beginner you should cut every different event pics.
I mean that you cut so in one pic you have just mario running right, in another mario jumping, etc.
The pic where you have Mario running right can have 6 Marios (for example) so each Mario is called "frame".
You can set the game to show all 6 Marios in a line but its nicer looking when you set Game Editor to show only one frame at a time by setting the width and height in the "add animation" box.
