Progress on animation speed and Flipbook

Since Flipbook doesn't let you change the number of frames per minute (speed of animation), there are a few ways to adjust to get your movie to slow down. When making your presentation, by duplicating each slide a few times before moving on to your next drawing, you can effectively cut the speed in half (or more, if you'd like).

Flipbook also allows you to export your animation as a .pdf file, in case you wanted to print it and make an actual paper flipbook. This is a nice feature. I'm going to look into seeing if I can use those images in another program to advance them one-at-a-time (like in PowerPoint) to make them easier to explain. I'm sure that it's possible.  More to follow...
