    Just for you 6'bore, I added a pic

    Good you've got the tools now, so yes you shoudl manage yourself and even better do a little bit of "pay forward" and do some avatars for others when they post here

    If you get ones hard to reduce or compress, drop me a note and I'll see if I can do any better with soem of the tricls I've learned

    Matra, or anybody, have a link for Photoshop?
    I really really really want it because this converting JPEG's to GIF's in paint is killing me - the quality is horrible and the work is slow, AND I want to do chops.

    So if anybody does have a link, please post it here or PM me,
    will be appreciated

    spit

    Edit: I can also help in avatar making, if I have a suitable program like PS. Because, from what I've read (from you), you have to pay for Animation Shop, so that's outta my list. I'll be out for irfanview a 'lil later.

    Can somebody please tend to my request? Thanks

    Ok, I got irfanview, only thing is...I don't know how to use it
    Can anybody please tell me how to convert multiple JPEG's to GIF's at the same time please? I find it complicating with all those buttons.

    When saving images as jpegs you HAVE to adjust the quality level to get the better images.
    Soudns liek you've been saving heavily compressed, so poor image Q.

    irfanview's help explains how to do animated files and how to use jpeg

    And to do batch, just choose the menu optiosn - File ... Bacth convers/rename and fill in the dialog box !!!!

    For what it's worth, I spent a fair while trying to get this to work on my own, so it's not like I'm a loafer or anything!

    I love this GIF, but the only way i could get it into the filesize limit was to halve the number of frames, remove a few more than reduce the overall size to a quarter of the original. Which just looked silly. So if anyone gets the chance to try something with it I'd be grateful, but I think it's probably just too long a file.

    yeah, too much to keep it smooth.

    I culled this to 1 in 4 frames, topped and tailed a couple more and got this.

    I think the humour is still there

    You just LOVE advertising don't you?

    Oh and thanks very much for the irfanview....i converted 50+ frames in just under a second and it was 40% of my work done. THANKS!!!

    Only thing is now I'm having trouble resizing moving GIF's. Everytime I go I first have to stop animation to resize it. When I DO resize it I go 'save as' and choose GIF. When I'm done I go to the file only to discover it doesn't move . But I'm still getting used to it, and reading the "Help" section too. However any pointers would be appreciated

    Once again, thanks

    IIRC you are best extracting ALL the frames from the animation - Options... Extract all frames....
    THEN batch to resize all the frames and then re-assemble them into a new sequence.

    Why Animation Shop is SOOOOOOO much easier
