Aesop is a tool that allows you easily create animated advertising banners, buttons, and other graphics for a Web site that contains sophisticated studio-quality, 3D antialiased text and image manipulation features. Great looking effects (for example moving the text across the image) can be realized into a multi-frame GIF in a few minutes. Palette optimization and data compression give you a possibility to obtain small size GIFs. Simplicity and a convenient step-by-step interface make this program useful for experienced programmers as well as for beginners in graphic design.
