how to resize a gif?
« on: May 02, 2005, 01:27:58 pm »
how would someone resize a gif or edit it to use as an avitar?
I got a cool one in an email, but I know its going to be too large to work.

Resizing a standard .gif is easy.  Resizing an animated one takes special tools.

animated gif is not standard, it's animated gif.  File extension is the same but the delimiters are in the file headers.

An animated gif is just a series of regular gifs that rotate and are combined in one file.  If the picture changes at all, it is an animated gif and you will need software to change it.  Go to download.com and look up animated gif software, you'll probably find a simple free one.

Eeek! Don't know if this affects anyone else, but it bugs me that I can't work out what that white door/poster thing is!?!? It looks like some kind of cross between a sports car and the Ten Commandments.  ???

I'm sorry you must be looking at the wrong picture.  I don't see anything behind her.
