Hi! I wanted to do some cool animated gifs, playing with te adjustment layers/opacity, and the tween option, but I can't find the adjustment layers command. I wanted to fade out the image, by reducing its contrast. Any idea? Thank you Fuli

Fuli, which version? i don't think it matters too much, just some thing may not be where i say...
Do your digital jiggery in Photoshop and jump to ImageReady.
You should see the same palettes that are available in PS.
When you have the Animation (Windows > Show Animation) palette open there is a built in TWEEN function that has someparameter that allow to adjust the opacity and the number of frames for this to take affect on (the number of frames will impact the level of opacity i.e. higher the number lower the opacity change). You can apply this to all layers OR to the "selected layer" (this opens up some creative options)
Another palette you will want to experiment with the options available is the "Layer Option/Style" (Windows > Show Layer Option/Style) This also has the "opacity" adjustment slider...
Try using some of these and see if you can get the effects you're looking for.

THank you Retrocity! You got it right, the tween function is what I am experimenting with right now, I want to do a fade out effect, by reducing the contrast to zero. I would do it by having an adjustment layer, with zero (or minus whatever) contrast, and tweening its opacity. The problem I am having, is that I've cut out the adjustment layer, so that only one cell or slice is affected, but it overlaps to other cells, which in turn, also become aniated gifs, and get affected by the mouseOver, which significantly increases the size of the page. I could not make the grids in ImageReady appear, so I couldn't slice the image along the cells. Not if it was a big problem, I can do the slicing and layer cut in Photshop, then move over to ImageReady. Thank you Fuli
