Question about reducing GIF file size in ImageReady.

[webhead731]

I made an avatar for this site (my first GIF ever lol) and when I tried to use it I got a message saying that it was 84.0 kb when it needed to be 80.0 kb.

How do I fix that in ImageReady?


Thanks.

If that window isnt open goto window and check the optimise one.

Then click the blue arrow then optimise to file size then save as optimise and your done

Thanks!

Is it possible to make it an avatar suitable for AIM too?

I actually didn't know that, either. I usually just tinker with the Lossy and colours. Thanks for that!

No problem.

Now tell me how i did the video in my sig

 

[webhead731]

The vid in your sig was well done.

I know those blood marks from PhotoShop though.

How long did it take to make?

Nope.

An hour to film..... a week to edit

Are you asking me my opinion on the video? Cause if so, I like it.

 

[webhead731]

Well an AIM icon has to be 7168 bytes...so?

Thanks Drak



Then i would assume so webhead? why not just do a test one and see?

 

[webhead731]

It says my image is too big and only 7168 bytes is allowed. Anyone know how to fix it?

 

[Drakon]

They need to be 48x48

 

[webhead731]

Dang seriously?

Thanks.

 

[Drakon]

Did that work?

 

[webhead731]

I reduced the size to 48x48 but it gives me the same message when I try to use it on AIM.

I've made icons for AIM in Photoshop before, I just make them 50x50 and save them as a GIF and it works. But they're just images, not moving or anything.

 

[Drakon]

Hm. Sorry, mate. I wish I could help more

 

[webhead731]

It's okay lol. Atleast you tried.
