Can anyone help me out with uploading Gif smileys to glp? I keep getting error message
Okay so I tried resizing on photobucket...it did not work...the pic stopped moving...

So I went to [link to ezgif.com] to resize...uploaded to glp...and it keeps telling me error with every pic I try...

What am I doing wrong? I know really nothing about this computer stuff...but I have uploaded pics here with no problem but these gif pics are tricky...there has to be something I'm not getting...

scratching


Please help and thank you :D

There is a free programme call photoscape - it has a section to resize gifs

Thank you for that :) However I think the one I used worked great...but glp is just not accepting it. 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...

I'm looking at this right now and will report back. :)

Edit: Can you link to one directly so that I can download the image in question?

I've had this problem before. 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.

It will appear here when approved so you can save and it re-upload it into your personal smileys (I will have to delete my copy here under the "tiger-anim" tag later to make room for more smileys...)

:tiger-anim:

I can make it a bit bigger (better) to get within the 200K limitation, but this will do for a 10 min hack-job.

I see it! I will upload in a minute. 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

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...

If you find a few good ones let me know and I'll see what I can do. :)

It isn't THAT bad if you know what you are doing, but some of them are nigh impossible because of the image limitations on the forum.

It was really hard to get this one within "spec" for example:
