# you should see some of my first efforts
two or three simple shapes on a plain background

if you have an image manipulation program that has a pen tool, have a play. simple strokes and fills are still the only things i use

# Hey /board
I've got an animated gif that's 3mb. How do I make it smaller?

I'm using imageready 7. Thanks.
(I helped save b3ta! CowJam, Fri 8 Apr 2011, 22:45, archived)
# reduce the number of frames
reduce the colour palette
reduce the pixel size
if there are any cuts, use hard edits rather than fades
(I helped save b3ta! mictoboy shitting in your cunt since, Fri 8 Apr 2011, 22:47, archived)
# How do I reduce the colour palette?
I've halved the number of frames, it's still 1.7MB. There's no transition effects but it's 24 frames of a scrolling scene, so each frame is quite different.
I 'saved for web' on each frame in the lowest jpeg setting.
(I helped save b3ta! CowJam, Fri 8 Apr 2011, 22:49, archived)
# in imageready, under 'windows' there should be an optimisation palette
you get the standard adobe gif options which are applied to every frame
if it's a fast scroll you can get away with it being quite 'lossy' too
if you want to see lots of detail, you're going to struggle
(I helped save b3ta! mictoboy shitting in your cunt since, Fri 8 Apr 2011, 22:51, archived)
# Sorted, thanks.
Thanks to everyone else too.
(I helped save b3ta! CowJam, Fri 8 Apr 2011, 23:01, archived)
# frame size?
I've done gifs where I've had to make the animation a lot smaller in window size than I would have liked, but once I've uploaded it usually looks fine

although I use a different program

# yeah
happytoast will often halve the pixel size, then double it up in html
(I helped save b3ta! mictoboy shitting in your cunt since, Fri 8 Apr 2011, 22:53, archived)
# Yeah I do that too.
300px increased in html to 400px is usually fine.

# Wait... what does
"I 'saved for web' on each frame in the lowest jpeg setting." mean? I thought it was a gif?
(I helped save b3ta! mofaha ┐( ˘_˘)┌ ʅ(́◡◝)ʃ, Fri 8 Apr 2011, 22:57, archived)
# this^
my guess was it's a composite of photos made into an animation, but clarification would be useful
(I helped save b3ta! mictoboy shitting in your cunt since, Fri 8 Apr 2011, 22:59, archived)
# All of the above, and
you can try turning up "lossy"... sometimes a very low setting makes a big difference to file size.
Also, take a look at the dither options. The less dither, the smaller the size.
One other weird thing, if you're not using transparency try unchecking it, sometimes it makes a big difference, although sometimes it actually increases the file size.

I like it, but I reckon I can see exactly what problems you have with it. It's almost like looking at something I've made myself.
