Does anyone know how to shrink a gif picture?

Well, there are different ways to shrink it. There is the dpi level and the resolution. Lowering the dpi but leaving it at the same resolution will reduce the file size and the quality.  Lowering the resolution but not the dpi will also reduce the file size but the image will be as clear as possible still.\n\nAs for software you can use, I find Photoshop to be the best, but if you are looking for something free, try GIMP for Windows. Its a port of the famous Linux photo/graphic editing package.  You can find the link in the source here.\n\nSo for a cell phone, I would guess a small 120x120 resolution with s 72dpi would be more than enough.  Without knowing your phones model I can't be sure though.

Right click on the photo, click on properties then reduce the size of it that way, just make the numbers smaller

Go to this website:\nhttp://webmonkey.wired.com/webmonkey/98/30/index3a_page6.html?tw=design\n\nIt gives you step by step directions on how to save it as a GIF file.\n\nNotice there's an Image Type pulldown menu. ImageReady allows you to use ye olde adaptive palette to map the colors of the image. You can also use Perceptual and Selective palettes, which use different algorithms. Try them all to see which one you prefer.

Use a program like photoshop or possibly even microsoft Word or Paint. Just try to copy and paste the pictures into a blank document.  Even if the Colage ends up having odd dimensions if you select Stretch in the Display>Desktop tab it will automatically resize it for you, it may look a little funny just mess with it a little until you can get it right.

Photoshop...with your file open. Go to Image, then Size. You'll get a pop-up box. You can either change your resolution to shrink it or the image size itself...inches/pixels. If you change the height it should automatically change the width to the correct proportion. You can't really make the resoulution higher on a small crappy image. You can...but it's pointless. You can resize it to make it bigger, but the quality (resolution) will not be any better.\n\nEDIT: Or you can have your file open...then start a new file of a larger size (pop up size will come up when you select new). Click on old image (must be unlocked..if not right click on layer and duplicate) and hold down left mouse button, and drag it into new file. Go to Edit, then Free Transform. A sizing box thing should appear on your image. Hold left mouse button and drag from corner. Hold shift key at the same time to keep proportionate. But once again...will not make the resolution any better to make it bigger. You can always make an image smaller...but bigger will not make it look better.

You have to download a special program that make's animated GIF's. although they are not movies, you could takes a portion of frames out of the actual movie and place them into the GIF program to have a Animated gif created.

Edit>Transform>Scale\n\n\n\n\nImage size (as mentioned below) will resize the entire picture. Transform is best for layers

We use Xara X, a European graphics program.  It's really easy to use!  And it does annimated gif's too.  Compared to Photoshop, it's a very reasonably priced graphics software package.  I think it's like $60 now.  Go to Xara.com to see what I'm talking about.  \n\nIt's a great alternative graphics program to Photoshop.

There are lots of tools out there.  Apparently they all involve:\n1 - extracting each of the images that make up the animation as a separate image\n2 - editing the images you would like to change\n3 - reassembling the animated gif from the edited images\n\nThis link discusses some editing tools, some of which are free.\nhttp://www.gifworks.com/\n\nThis link discusses how do to it with a tool called banner-maker:\nhttp://www.banner-maker.net/help/ht_edit.htm\n\nAnd here are detailed instructions on how to create a gif animation in the first place:\nhttp://members.aol.com/royalef/gifmake.htm\n\nHope this helps!
