# Hi Ninj
You are a legend. May I ask for your help? and sorry for the threadjack - I'm making my first ever GIF and although I've got it to animate in PS, I don't know how to save it or make file size smaller.....

Can any of you wonderful b3tans help me?
You will be rewarded by seeing my rubbish gif :D

# Hi Camp!
I go to 'Save For Web & Devices', there it gives you the option to make
your .gif and reduce the size to suit your needs.

Hope this helps? :)

# yes think so
I got as far as the 'save as' menu, not sure which drop down reduces the size...., so will have a fiddle see what happens.

After that, I'll try and save the gif arf!


hugs and tanx :D

# If you open it in image ready that has better options for saving as an animation than photoshop.
Use the optimise settings to make it smaller, then "save optimised as"

# here's a tip
if you want to crop your animation before you save it, go to the drop down menu on the far right of the animation window and choose "select all frames"
then crop your image to the size you want, if you dont choose "select all frames" it will only crop one layer and mess it all up.

# yeah - I've done that before
I'm ok on that.

Tho I'm self taught and my teacher is a fool.

# Yeah save for web really
You can change the size at the right and generally fiddle about with compressing it.

I'm unsure if this was less complex when it was imageready for this garb.
