i hope you use a smooth filter (eg gaussian) rather than something sharp like a cubic (catmull-rom, mitchell-netravali etc). noise doesn't compress so well so this is kinda important if it's going to be at least as good as vdub+imageready. obviously the colour quantisation has to be pretty good and dithering should be off by default, for the same reason.

being free.

at least for members of 4chan, failing that just for me but easily releasable to 4chan + co

What's wrong with dither. . .increases file size but they look better. What optimization settings do you use in ImageReady

"Total Video Converter" is a buggy heap of crap, but you can convert .flv files (You Tube) to anything. Including gifs.

Do what TVC can do without being crap and you'll win the internet.

not counting flash unless you know where to gat a half-decent flash maker that isn't a shitload in cost or temporary.

Well if you didn't write support for the non-widely supported format, how is it going to become widely supported?
