# Don't realy see much of difference tbh

# i'm sure the old one let me optomise easier, it may be that i have the trial version, but is the animation suite lobbed in with cs5 and not imageready anymore?

# Go File->Save for web and devices
and yes, the animation thing is lobbed in now. I'm on cs3 and it won't even let me import .gif files unless I rename them to .mov.

# If you're using a PC you can import a gif by navigating to the folder where your gif is
using File / Import / Import Video Frames to Layers... and just start typing the name of the gif. If you're on a Mac carry on as you are. CS5 will open a gif properly now by File / Open...

# Oh right I see what you mean the new Save to Web & Devices...
I think the "Optimize" button is still there, but I never use it as it always makes a mess of the gif. I perfer good ol' fashioned tweaking settings like in the days of ImageReady. There is an Optimize menu just to the right of the preset box at the top.

# That's right, it's all within Photoshop now.
Window > Animation to get the animation strip up. It's the same as ImageReady's.
When you're in the "Save For Web" screen, make sure you've got the "Optimized" view selected to get the opmtimization tools to show up on the right. Once they do, they should be pretty much identical to the ImageReady tools.
Sorry if I'm stating the obvious here, I know you're not an idiot.

I wasn't being funny at all. It's easy to miss stuff when it's in a different context.

# I think those options are now contained within 'save for web'.
But it doesn't seem as straight forward.
