by 1 Comment

To make the previous article and create the animated gif, instead of just using a single image or make a video, I used a combination between recordmydesktop, ffmpeg and GIMP. 1 First we have to make our recording, and to do this, we can use any app such as recordmydesktop, Istambul, Xvidcap or any you like.
