Default Gifs - resizing, more


Can someone suggest free software that works with gifs, that can resize
gifs, both animated and non animated?

TIA

Image Resizer
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/...s/powertoys.asp
This PowerToy enables you to resize one or many image files with a
right-click.

Are you talking about changing the file size (eg. increasing
compression) without changing the image size or changing the image size
(resampling)?

I'm talking about decreasing the size of the image itself, not increasing
depression.

Thanks. If you know, which one resizes animated gifts? I don't want the
whole package. The site doesn't make that clear.

Irfanview can resize non-animated gifs, but not animated ones.
Ulead Gif Animator 2 can edit and make animated gifs, but not resize them.
Perhaps Movies13 can do it.

Hmmm. I get a little "depressed" when working on some graphics files
myself. However, it looks like what you want is to resize images by
resampling them. Photofiltre (http://www.photofiltre.com/) allows you to
do this. Note though, that the freeware version won't allow you to edit
..gif files. Thus, you might want to look at something like Irfanview
(http://irfanview.tuwien.ac.at/), but unless you want it to do so, be
careful to not allow the program setup to install the Yahoo! toolbar on
your computer. It's unfortunate that Irfan Skiljan decided to
incorporate this means of financing his program development, but on the
other hand it's optional and not really a big deal once you're aware
that it's there.

HTH.
