If you want to use Blender to create 2D cutout animations (see this thread on BA to get an idea of what I'm talking about) then forTe's new cutout import image script will save you a lot of time!

forTe has released a 2D cutout import image script in blenderartists, the script is really usefull to create 2D compositing and 2D animations, it can add an image, use the alpha channel, make it shadeless, put it in a plane witht the same height and width as the image and more !
This is gong to be a huge time saver for this kind of projects.
Check out the thread at blenderartists.

Heh, I need this right at this moment. Downloading now.
Thanks forTe!
This is pretty slick! I'd like to make some short clips myself. =D
Will Definitely make my life easier, and a couple of 2d designer-artists i know VERY happy . :)
It is a great Time Saver ! Thank you very much for this script !
Thanks for publishing, Bart, and thanks forTe for this intelligent script. I might as well forget I ever used Flash. Haha! ^_^
This is just on the right timing, since I'm currently creating a gift project for my girlfriend right now (who, I'm 90% sure wouldn't read this post, so I'm safe the surprise wouldn't get spoiled). Wishing you luck on your success on more upgrades on this script and wish me luck on my surprise, too. ^_^
Thanks so much.

awesome, this is great!
yeah it works great i remember playing with it last year. it is easy to use.
Why i did not think of that before!
thanks for the post.
Some time ago there was a similar script that imported a multi-layer XCF file using xcftools. Does this script have the same ability? If not, it would be great to integrate both scripts in one.
let me say this: that is a very helpful script! hope to use Blender and make a cutout animation some time in the future as needed (or feel like it.) :D God bless, -b
P.S. Check out the new movie "Fireproof" - it doesn't have anything to do with Blender or FOSS, but it is a very good movie! The visuals aren't spectacular, but the story and message is excellent!
I don't speak english....ok soy principiante en blender pero me emociona aprender cosas nuevas....
Thank goodness...
Wow! This is going to be really useful!
