How to reduce GIF file a bit

I have gif animation file size 468*80
Is there any simple program that can make it 351*60 ( Make it 75% smaller) ?

 

Almost any drawing software. I use Paint shop pro...

 

even for animated ones?

I guess I've never tried it!

 

no paint shop pro cannot resize animations, can u do it with flash?

 

or how would you do with with PS...is that what Image Ready is for?

I've always just used Active Gif Creator to create gifs but to resize Ive never done it...I just make a new one to suit my needs!

 

ive never used imageready so i dont know.. ill see if i can do it with flash




EDIT

flash works perfect, just open flash, then open the gif image, and the frames come up, then you just have to resize each one

 

Yes it does...Just launch animation and resize...

 

I read that Gimp can also do it where it treats eat frame as a layer...might have to do the same thing though, resize each one...the Gimp users said it was a lot easier than using IR

 

Cool, just to make sure whats "flash" ? That can't be name of a program

 

I think it is! I've heard the name being tossed around before anyway.

 

Macromedia Flash MX 2004 is what i used, i think there may be a newer versin othough

 

Cool thanks. Hope it won't be too hard for new user to do that

 

nah its not that hard, just open the program, then open the gif, you may want to get a bit of knowledge though

 

I use Jasc Animation Shop. ImageReady should do the trick as well. Any animation program, actually. I'm not sure how well flash would work, wouldn't you have to resize each frame separately?

 

yeh i think you have to do each fram by itselfmaybe not, im not a flash expert so im not sure

 

For gif animation, please consider ulead gif animator. This is a great tool.

 

i wil do with image ready and use a option like image size... and set my required dimensions... i did my avatars and sig like tat..

 

Never heard of that, but will definetely try it
Thanks

 

You are welcome.

Please note that you can save the file as gif, flash, movie ( avi ) and more.

 

easiest method is open ur gif file with Fireworks and all ur frames will be intact if u open the gif animated files with Fireworks and mak the necessary adjustments and agin reexport it to gif simple.
