Ok you gif making people. I have a gif animator that I can finally use (yay!) and I made this as an experiment (isn't he cute?!). The question is, what's an ideal size (mb wise) for a gif? This is 5.7mb. It took a while to load so I wondered if that was normal for a gif. And does it take ages for it to animate the first time when you first view it? For me it's slow and then once it's animated it once it runs smoothly.

I will keep playing but I rather like the idea of gif making. :))

Wow - only 1mb. But theres so many gifs on Tumblr. I'd be curious how they all manage to make them under 1mb. I'd be pretty sure they not all be made thru photoshop. Hmmmm...

Oh and the gif animator I now have is simply called GIF Animator. Very simple, but doesn't allow you to actually colour it or anything. It simply animates the stills. I am hoping to do any colouring etc in my vid program and then export stills.
