# Cheers :) The biggy works better
but I couldn't optimise it much more without losing too much shiny :(

(and faq-wise, the posted image is sub-100k and under 400px wide :)

ed: on second thoughts 1080 is a bit too much.

# I made it smaller and added 10% lossy.
It's just playing about with settings until you get something you're happy with.

# Yup.
Original size and quality was for owner's laptop screen.
Brain's running a bit too slowly to remember to make a smaller version :(

# lossy?
I only have photo-paint for making GIFs. It never asks me about lossy.
What is it?

# Reduction in quality
for smaller file-sizes.
Like adjusting JPG compression, but a bit more effective.

# Nice
maybe I'm missing something, but I just can't find a way of optimising GIFs without making them look awful

# Er, reducing the colour palette can work, bit of loss - not too much.
Smaller image dimensions - less fewer frames

# yeah, I get the fewer frames, smaller, etc
but I sometimes see GIFs on here that look great and are still small and I just can't seem to get the same results.

# you can make the gif small,
but when you post it add some html magic *pointy arrow left* img width="300" src="YOUR_FILE_URL"

# You forgot *pointy arrow right*
(, Sun 12 Aug 2012, 3:29, archived)
# *pointy arrow right* appears after the src file code anyway

# Less pixels changing between frames also helps.

# Hmm
Less Fewer

# And faq-wise the posted image is unshopped at first glance, which is why he was looking for faq-you gifs.
