How to make gif

Gifka - Animated image in .gif format. It was developed almost 30 years ago specifically for use on the network, and is still widespread. Since 2004, there is an alternative APNG format from Mozilla. If you describe the gif briefly - this is a picture, which is a certain sequence of frames that replace each other. We will learn them to do them.

To create a gif, we need a graphic editor that supports the animation feature. From free you can take Gimp. from an official English-language site or even watch it online(Flashplater will be required).

If you have Windows above the XP version, the OS has a built-in convenient tool for creating drawings of various complexity - Paint.NET In principle, you can use any graphic editor with layers support, but we will focus on the most popular and affordable. We are looking for a program in the "Standard" menu "Start". Here I was located well-known "Painf".

So, we open a picture in paint.net or draw it directly in the program - for example.

Here everything is extremely clear - you load our drawings with the help of a big blue "Add frames" button in the upper left corner of the screen and at the bottom of the press "Finish". Optionally, you can choose one or more settings to change the frames in the right panel. Next, the program will offer to download the resulting picture or share it on the network.

If you need to take animation from the video, it will help application from "VKontakte" - Vid2gif. True, the big files will not work. The program does not exactly write, what size supports, but more than 15 minutes of video does not get out. Therefore, it is better to choose the most interesting moments in advance. Specify the desired parameters, moving the slider under the video, and click "Create GIF". The image we retain onto the wall, and from there we can pass anywhere.

An interesting alternative offers the site Minimultum. Uploaded frames are edited online, supplied with signatures and effects. Gifs can be left on the site and hear the opinion of other project participants, get a useful advice or criticize others.
