Making Animated Gifs...

[DD]

I want to make and modify some animated Gifs but have no idea how to go
about it! Could someone suggest suitable programs for a beginner?

Check out Microsoft's freeware Gif Animator, available at:

I would find it very hard to trust a Freeware Site that recommends the
use of Gator.

http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Horizon/6013/internet.html

Their review shows a star beside GATOR, and the review states "Very
useful and practical password manager."

Makes me wonder what other SPYWARE is being recommended on this site.

Do a search for msgifanimator
and pick a site you'd trust (as $6MM points out, stay away from
gator .

I got it a long time ago from a site that's now "404."

Your best bet is Ulead Gif Animator 2:

http://encoderx.co.uk/imageeditors/index.php

I've tried them all and this one is the best.

I don't reply to trolls like Andy Mabbett, Doc (who uses sock puppets)
or Roger Johansson, for instance. No adware, cdware, commercial
software, crippleware, demoware, nagware, PROmotionware, shareware,
spyware, time-limited software, trialware, viruses or warez for me, please.

John, I got that in July of '03 for my nephew. Is this a later version?
Thanks

I strongly recommend Animator 9 - you can get it from www.download.com

It isn't as full featured as some of the other programs listed but
it's simply and free without any spyware installations - and listen to
the wise men - stay the hell away from Gator.

Stan,
AFAIK, it's the last free version of the program. Sorry, I can't
answer your question because I don't know what version you got. All I
really know is that it's a great program.

Actually at http://www.vvcool.com/animator9/

It has another interesting trick... "Animated JPEG" - using a java
applet to show a JPEG filmstrip, with possibly smaller size and better
quality (from a truecolour source) than GIF.

See example: http://www.vvcool.com/animator9/java_vs_agif/java.htm
