Animated GIF size

I need to create an animated gif banner which can be no more than 50 KB in size. I created on that more simple as I can, which consists of 8 frames and consists of some really narrowed down to image (size of the file-wise) files - and it's coming to 118 Ko when I save it for the web, using only 128 colors. Can someone please offer a gif animator amateur a few tips on how to make much smaller?

Thank you

Yes, the best way to get the file size down is to reduce: pixel size, # of colors...

Try to use one of the presets in the save for web and see if they get more, come and play with all the # of colors / ditther options and see if you can't get it down to the size you need! u can also try to flatten all the layers?

I hope this helps!

  • Minimize the size of the animated gif file?

    This is the original animated gif file:

    And that's what I created him: http://img186.imageshack.us/img186/5286/80916350.gif

    The size of the original is just 7 KB, but my new is 113KB
    I exported the stages of my new to the separate gif file, and they are just around 2 ~ 3 KB per gif file.

    So what I don't understand, is why I add just that all the steps in a new, but its size is so large?

  • How to make animated gifs to work in FCPX?

    Hello

    How to make animated gifs to work in FCPX?

    They work in FCP7 (FCS) but not FCPX. Strange.

    assailed

    Elmer

    If you had FCP7, you have Quicktime 7 Pro (upgraded automatically at installation FCP7). Check your Applications > Utilities folder.

    Open the gif in QT7 and export as... (Sequence Quicktime Movie > Open Options)... might as well go with ProRes LT and make sure that you pay attention to the size option (select current if the original is 100%).

  • animated GIF not showing do not adequately

    I have an animated gif image, and I used http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Java-Development/Display-an-animated-GIF/ta-p/445014 this link to animate the noise towards the top of the screen and that did not work properly

    You can see the animation below

    public class UpdatePopScreen extends PopupScreen{
    
            public UpdatePopScreen(){
                 super(new VerticalFieldManager(), Screen.DEFAULT_CLOSE); 
    
                 GIFEncodedImage ourAnimation = (GIFEncodedImage) GIFEncodedImage.getEncodedImageResource("sunblackk.gif");
                AnimatedGIFField _ourAnimation = new AnimatedGIFField(ourAnimation, Field.FIELD_HCENTER);
    
                this.add(_ourAnimation);
               add(new LabelField("Loading..."));
    
        }         
    
        }
    

    and I have attached AnimatedGIFField.java

    I think something is wrong in your establishment or the way you use this code, because it works very well for me.  Sorry you'll have to do investigative work to identify the problem.

    I suspect there are two possibilities:

    (a) you have not configured your environment properly

    (b) you use something else keeps track of events

    I think that (b) is the most likely, but to test these two at the same time, you must proceed as follows:

    Create a new project and a new example application, then, in this application, test the screen.  Nothing else in this project - it should start just a screen, the screen should have a button, when you click the button the treatment should push the pop-up screen.

    I have included my code (which combines Animation and popup screen into one file - not recommended but useful source under test).  Use this code and the image as an attachment in your new project.

    Test it on your Simulator.

    Assuming that you can get this working, then we can investigate on what is actually wrong in your application.

  • Animated GIF how to animate already?

    I want to add a gif animated (like http://i.imgur.com/0ySdU.gif) loop to a scene and animate it (the size of the object should change).

    How can I do this?

    Any help is appreciated! See you soon!

    This particular animated gif appears to be corrupt. But normally you would simply import animated gif, and it should become a movieclip. If it is not, as was the case with this gif, you should always get the frames of the animation. You can then arrange them in the timeline to a new movieclip. To make it grow and shrink you would copy some of the executives at the end of the sequence, and then select the frames, right-click and choose Revrse images.

    If there are 5 images, you would end up with this in your timeline:

    12345432

    Which loop to well, and you can place the movieclip on the stage, to resize the entire animation.

  • Animated GIF > save for Web (legacy) ends too large

    I created an animated GIF on a work plan which is 768 x 90, but the Dimensions of the Document indicate 1456 x 416 (a lot of the images fly in and "shrink").

    When I export as a PNG or JPG image it only exports the work plan, so that it remains the size I want to (768 x 90); but when I export > save for Web (Legacy) which is the only way to create an animated GIF AFAIK, it is exported to 1456 x 416.

    How can I get to the exit of the GIF animated image to the size of the artboard? Thank you.

    New export > export as a workflow is not animated gifs, currently exporting. It's probably something that will be supported in the future, however.

    To export a gif animated image in PS using Photoshop CC 2015, do not work plans. Please use export > save for Web (legacy) option without work plans. The backup of the Web feature levels is not support work plans and probably never will be. Instead, we will continue to improve and to the export as a workflow.

  • What is the application preferred for animation GIF/PNG in CC?

    After the Fireworks has been deprecated, what is the preferred application currently in CC for the creation of animated GIF and png?

    Flash and Photoshop?

    Both offer a timetable, and the two exports to animated gifs. After export you can optimize the animations gif with a utility such as Gifsicle. It can save a little of the size of the file.

    APNG (Animated PNG files) is a non-standard file format, and because of this Adobe applications remain unable to export animated png files.

    Chrome, Opera, and IE do not support APNG files. Safari and Firefox don't.

    If you still want or need to create APNG files, a list of a number of tools for editing and conversion is available here: Software APNG

  • Animated GIF selection does not appear in the menu "output" first Pro cc?

    I watched an on-line tutorial of how to make GIFs using first Pro CC. When you select the exit, an animated gif choice appeared in the output drop-down list of the CC Pro first used in the tutorial. However, the menu of my CC out first place Pro does not have a selection of animated gif. How to make a selection of animated gif to appear in the menu of my CC Pro exit first?  I would like to create gifs with my CC Pro first.

    It is possible that the Media Encoder has allowed this earlier, but now, you have to use Photoshop to make it work. Simply, it worked for me. (I'm on a Mac 10.10.5.)

    1. Via Media Encoder, export your movie or animation of Premiere Pro (or After Effects). For Format, choose JPEG. For the preset, choose a corresponding sequence setting. Choose a folder to export the sequence in so it is easy to isolate later.
    2. Open Photoshop, then choose open. Navigate to the folder where you saved the sequence and select the first image in the sequence. Click on the sequence of images at the bottom of the dialog box, and then click OK.
    3. Choose a frequency of images in the next dialog box, and then click OK. In Photoshop, which will open the movie as a film with a visible timeline at the bottom.
    4. Choose file > export > save for Web (Legacy). At the top right, select GIF. Bottom right, replace the Options setting in a loop once in Forever. Click the small play button to watch the animation loop. Click Save.
    5. Load the GIF saved in your browser and it should loop. See picture posted here.

    Please post a reply if this procedure works for you. To avoid a few snags, that I met during an attempt to do this, I recommend having your game size and the duration of the film frame in Premiere Pro and not try to do any resizing later. When I resized it later, the loop never happened; He played only once.

  • How to reposition an animated gif imported into all States at once?

    I create a new document in Fireworks CS6.

    I import an animated gif existing (a video AVI converted gif in Photoshop CS6).  Its dimensions are smaller than the size of the document, so for me it's just an object such as text or anything else.

    I add some text to the document.

    I add a small png image to the document.

    (This is where comes my lack of understanding of the fireworks...)

    1. If I reposition the animated gif object this change occurs only on State (context), that I am. I want my repositioning to be reflected in all States, not only the one image... Err, STATE.

    2. the text and the png, I added are also only on this single State and I want them to be present for all managers in the original animated gif.

    Sounds so rudimentary, but I can't find a tutorial or the description on how to achieve these basic steps.

    This is a png image of what should look like the final image.  The largest screen captures in the middle is the animated gif.

    Broadcast-preset-reminder.png

    To reposition all the elements of your both animated GIF, go in the States at the bottom panel left and choose 'Show All States' (also check multi - State edition is activated). From there, you can use the pointer tool to select the items on the canvas who want to move.

    To share a layer between all States (such as the elements of your text and png), go the State in which the objects are currently present, select the corresponding layer and choose 'Share layer to States' in the menu drop-down in the layers panel or context menu.

  • Premiere Elements is usable on an animated gif file?

    I plan to buy Premiere Elements, but I need to know if we can use it to add effects to an animated gif file.

    For example, in Photoshop Elements, you can add some effects to a gif image, as what gives it some textures or filters.

    Can we do the same sort of thing in Premiere Elements and if so it is possible to an animated gif file?

    Perhaps a better way to ask this question is: can you import a gif file in Premiere Elements, and then manipulate?  Run filters, etc..

    Thanks for your help.

    If you load your GIF in first 10 items, change, then share in an AVI file, you can then import the AVI file in GIF Movie Gear by Gamani, who will then create an animated GIF. I learned about this utility from a Microsoft tutorial on creating icons for Windows XP.

    http://www.gamani.com/product_icon.htm

    If you use Firefox and redirected, try to use Internet Explorer instead.

    After the trial period is over, it is $29 for 4 licenses .95US.

    When you share an AVI file, you will want to choose the Microsoft AVI item in the list, and then click the Advanced button to open the dialog box where you should select a codec and enter the size of the image and the pace. The codec must be one who loves of GIF Movie Gear, so there may be some adequate error to get a good codec. I shared an avi after picking Xvid for the codec, including GIF Movie Gear imported.

  • Black frames at end of animated gifs

    When you make banners using AE to convert 3 to 5 seconds of video in animated GIF, I noticed that there are always black frames at the end that appear each time the banner is played repeatedly. However, these frameworks do not seem to occur if the output is swf files. Y at - it a medium format or source to work around the problem of black frames with animated gifs? I not had this problem with other software gif animated, that I used, but the quality of the EA is better, other than this issue. Appreciate help with this.

    Just checked the help files and the SOUL supports animated gifs but only on Windows. Sorry I missed it.

    If you get black images at the end, then simply adjust the point of exit in the SOUL. You probably see a set cadence match. Fix you this in AE and not a SOUL.

    Useful for Animated Gifs should have a very low number of executives and a slow pace to be useful. 3 seconds to 29.97 FPS will make a big enough file for a banner size. Not see the project, but looking at the description I was wondering if your comp is 29.97 FPS, but you've made your gifs at 15 frames per second or even lower. If this is the case, that the black frames at the end could easily be the result of some funky things going on with the gif rendering engine.

    I still maintain my suggestion to use a film in Photoshop. Most of animated gifs that I created require different lengths for different periods. I'll start with 5 frames a.1 seconds for a transition, then hold the 6th framework during 6 seconds, then the transition to slide with 1 more pictures a.1 2 second, then the frame h 17-6 seconds and 12 seconds of animation gif with 17 images. You can't do that with the SOUL, you would end up with an animated gif with 120 frames for the same thing.

  • Why my animated GIFS not displayed on some mobile phones

    I have created some animated gifs in Fireworks for use on a Bluetooth server.

    One time created, I save it as a png and then drop as an animated gif.

    I then download the gif animated to the server to be transmitted to mobile phones.

    For some reason, certain display gifs and others don't.  I have looked at the size of the file etc, but does not understand why the file appears.

    My colleague has a Nokia mobile and I recently sent two gif files.  The one which is displayed and the other is not.

    They were both of the same size etc, and both had been created and saved in the same way.

    Does anyone have any ideas as to why some animated gif files not displayed.

    I thought it might be the phone, but some files were properly posted.

    Any help would be appreciated.
