This is 27 frames, 20 K
If I'd made it 223 frames long it would be 168K.

# There is a lot more movement each frame though,
your dots in the middle are constantly changing :)

# Arses.
I guess it's down to the pixels.

# Oh yeah, this too.
Try copy and pasting the dots from one frame into all the others so they don't change.

# It's physically larger which accounts for part of it.

# Ehhhhh, depends.
When you're doing a gif in photoshop it generally depends on the number of layers used/how much of the screen actually physically changes.

So if you've just got 1 black background layer with the dotted line down the middle, and some layers of the paddles in 6 or so positions down the side, then you can make new frames using the existing layers in different configurations, saving loads of space.







These are just over 10K each and they had about 100-150 frames in and a fair amount of layers. It's all being economical with what you use.
