I have 2 SVG files that I want animated and turned into a GIF, the site https://svgartista.net/ doesn't allow exporting as SVG. It's a shame because this is doing exactly what I need. I tried svgator but that could not open up my SVG files on that site, which is annoying. But yeah, anyway I have these two SVG files and I need them turned into gifs, so if you can help, I'll pay $20 for both. Thanks so much. Source: about 2 years ago

This could be done in css, but it's pretty complex. You would probably use custom animations with keyframes. Animation of logo looks like svg animation where you are somehow animating path. Look for svg animation example here: https://svgartista.net/. Source: over 2 years ago

After editing and importing your frame as SVG, you now need to animate it. For basic animations, you can either use svgartista or svgator. If you want your own custom animations you can do it by using @keyframes in CSS. - Source: dev.to / almost 3 years ago

I never really use puppet tool, to be honest, I don't like how it distorts the shapes — hard to get clean bends. The characters are rigged with Limber which uses regular paths and strokes for the limbs, and gives a lot more control when animating. Source: over 2 years ago
