How do I make a fight cycle. My dad blocked youtune and i tried millions of different ways but none of them look good.
thats like asking how to draw a giraffe-

How do you promote someone?
probably with a handshake and congratulations?
umm i noticed in version 3.0.5 sound was removed i just got back into animating. was sound effects removed in earlier versions?
sound was not removed, click a Frame and look at the bottom of “Frame Tools” menu
How do I upload my animation?
Look at export gif or png
Or MP4
MP4 is for like youtube videos
Do that one
I dont recommend PNG since if you make a animation with 100 frames
It makes 100 photos.
Excuse me ralph how do you download sounds?
You search for mp3
Make sure it isnt under a certain limit
Search for thunder effects or whatever
Anything that is short.
Use other apps to add music.
