My Entry

I have created this Gif using Software called Plotagraph Pro. Just this week a new feature was launched, called Plotamorph. I will take this opportunity to review the new features and introduce this amazing technology to the Utopian.io Comunity. I will also be sending a link to the C.E.O. of Plotagraph Pro so I can discuss the Opportunites a Company has at Utopian.io for future Software Development and how Plotagraph Pro can be implemented into the Blockchain.

You start by opening the New Plotamorph Software tab (The Plotagraph Tab will be for another lesson).

I like to have my files for my projects organized in one place and usually have all files resized so they match. For this demonstration I will show how you can also crop on the fly withing the program.

As of right now you can only "Morph" the first to initial images. Although you can add more images afterwards, they will only have a fadeaway transition.

Above you can see the Crop on the Purple Rectangle and on the 2nd image is an illustration of the Morphing Control Panel.

Here , you can add additional Slides.

I chose to use the Rewards Counter from yesterday an the grabbed the counter from the Investors page to show the upward trend and progress coupled with a variance in graphics to help make more of an interesting transition.

Here you can create custom Morphing Points. And there's also an option to make layers Visible or Turn of for Finer Tuning of the process.

They even offer the ability to upload a small Watermark or logo whichI took advantage of.

There's also the ability to upload Audio, Video Overlays as well as Stills. I ended up choosing the upward bubbles to represent the "Percolation" of ideas in Utiopian.io

Some more fine tuning and review the Gif prior to Export. A very convenient feature as well.

Many formats and sizes to choose from when exporting. I choose Gif and Upload to Giphy for the Contest.

Another great feature is while your Plotamorph is Rendering you can work on another project. You will receive a notification when your file is ready for download.

Please ask any further questions you may have. I'll covering this Software and more in future Contributions.

For the final result
