I mean it's the right size and everything...I even made one smaller just to be sure...and yep still that error message. I will give your progam a try... |

The file size was less than what the limit is, it's in .gif format, but GLP keeps saying there was an error. I asked about it and was pretty much told they (the mod) had no idea what the problem was. |

Ok... It is an "optimized" image so it is all "funky" for editing (each frame.) I'm recreating the frames as whole frames so that I can resize it properly. It may have to be a bit smaller (width), and I may have to crop the image edges a bit to fit within forum limits. But I can definitely make this work. |

This is just not easy stuff I see... well...it was worth a shot and I am thankful to you for taking time out to look into it. I will just leave the Gifs alone for now on I guess lol Talk to you later Akashic :) |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 48628264 France 12/17/2013 08:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Oh, that is an understatement! :) It is all just tons of technical bullshit with math, colors, and limitations on how many colors the pixels can be, and which ones change between animation frames, etc., etc. To resize the dimensions and reduce the file size, you have to do some image wizardry. Edit: For example, I think I dropped that tiger image down to 16 shades of gray or something.. From 255... |

It was really hard to get this one within "spec" for example: :got-a-point: |
