At its simplest a Layercake image consists of three main layers.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The traditional gif layer. Unlike regular GIFaCHROME images this extends under the frame layer..<\/li>\n<li>An extended GIFaCHROME frame. This borrows from the Polaroid print and is an extra transparent, or white frame surrounding. This is a shared layer, shared across all frames.<\/li>\n<li>The external layer. On each frame a section of the extended gif layer is copied above the frame layer. This layer can have an optional drop shadow.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>As an aid to creating Layercake images the frame layer is hidden, or added at the end of processing. There is often a guide layer which is hidden before the final gif-printing.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1247\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1247\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/johnjohnston.info\/106\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/layercake-explain.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1247\" alt=\"Click to expand\" src=\"https:\/\/johnjohnston.info\/106\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/layercake-explain-300x195.png\" width=\"300\" height=\"195\" srcset=\"https:\/\/johnjohnston.info\/106\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/layercake-explain-300x195.png 300w, https:\/\/johnjohnston.info\/106\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/layercake-explain.png 846w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1247\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Click to expand<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Currently Layercake images are developed using fireworks processing, it is envisaged that this could easily be converted to GIMP or photoshop style workflows.<\/p>\n<p>More examples and technical details are expected to follow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Layercake, is a developing technology for the GIFaCHROME camera.
