Animated Gif tutorial

In a comment a few days ago, Beatrice Boyd of The Frog n Penguin, asked how I did the animated me pics. here is the tutorial . I used Google Photo Storage, very easy to use.
First take 2 or 3 photos that are very similar. You can do it with any photo but unless they are taken at same time will look like a slideshow instead of animation.

Go to Google.com and click on the 9 dots by your photo, click on the pinwheel, that is Google Photo Storage. My phone and tablet auto place photos there and I put the ones from my camera in it on my desk top or laptop. Upload or drag them there.

Find 2 similar photos click on the edge, see the blue checkmark above.. then click on the PLUS + and in the drop menu pick animation. it does it automatically, and when you click on the arrow at top left you go back to photos and there it is. click on it and go to top right and click download to save it in computer or share it where you want to with the share icon.

I created one with four photos to show that if photos are different the same steps make a slideshow.
