>>215042 I figured it was your first gif so I didn't want to yell at you about fucking EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!! up.
For future reference though, some tips for making a successful gif.
1: Add a frame delay. Having a delay of 0 makes it play unwatchably fast in ACDSee or picture browsers. 0.1 seconds is fine for just about every gif (unless it has a high amount of frames for its length).
2: If the gif is only a few seconds long, it shouldn't be bigger than 1 meg. Reduce picture size, delete extra frames. If the gif is a long scene (or something really awesome like Battlestar Galactica) then 2 to 3 megs is okay.
3: For American cartoons that have little amount of color blending and shading, saving in 128 colors instead of 256 is better. I only know how to do this in ImageReady though (hit the 4up tab above the gif you're working on).
4: You reduce file size by a tiny amount by cropping a small border around the edges of the gif. This also helps reduce that single pixel of white space that might show up on gifs that are ripped from video files.
