Animated .gif file HELP

[bunch_G17]

I have an animated .gif that I would like to resize down to 100x100 pixels for my avatar. I can resize it with Irfanview 3.95 but it will not keep its animation running. How can I fix this?

[David_G17]

from the irfanview help files:

"Note: IrfanView can't save animated GIFs."

that stinks, i had no idea. :(

[prism]

see if this website can do it

gifworks.com

GifWorks.com will probably do the trick. I've done a couple avatars on there, including my own. Just remember the filesize can't be over 6000 bytes.

gimp can do it.

attach the gif file to a post here and i'll see what i can do with gimp.

wow. heh. with over 250 frames in the animation, quality will disappear if it's reduced to a 6k filesize.

here it is, reduced to 60k filesize http://img104.echo.cx/img104/7979/thatgif11lu.gif

Good point. You can remove some of the scenes...

Still too large if I remove the fight scenes except for the first punch and the light saber. Remove much else and you lose the joke. Sorry.
