    <content type="html">So, to give myself a break from all the fic I've been writing, I decided for Day 2 to teach myself how to make GIFs...with middling success. I understand most people use Photoshop, but I don't have it and don't want to pirate it, so on the recommendation of &lt;a href="http://www.techsupportalert.com/best-free-animated-gif-maker.htm"&gt;Gizmo Freeware Reviews&lt;/a&gt;, I tried &lt;a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/gifapp/"&gt;GifApp&lt;/a&gt;. It's a nice simple program, but not ideal for fannish purposes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="cut-wrapper"&gt;&lt;span style="display: none;" id="span-cuttag___1" class="cuttag"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b class="cut-open"&gt;(&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class="cut-text"&gt;&lt;a href="https://spatz.dreamwidth.org/109775.html#cutid1"&gt;the result, from POI 1x12&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class="cut-close"&gt;&amp;nbsp;)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="display: none;" id="div-cuttag___1" aria-live="assertive"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*sigh* Anyway, I'll have to try again with a different program. Maybe &lt;a href="http://pursuitofnerdiness.tumblr.com/post/59984333788/tutorial-how-to-make-gifs-using-only-free-software"&gt;this method&lt;/a&gt;, though it sounds needlessly complicated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Any of ya'll have recommendations regarding freeware or tutorials for this? There's about a million out there, and I'd love to hear from someone with actual experience.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ETA: &lt;i&gt;now&lt;/i&gt; &lt;span style='white-space: nowrap;'&gt;&lt;a href='http://inmyriadbits.livejournal.com/profile'&gt;&lt;img src='https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif' alt='[livejournal.com profile] ' style='vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;' width='17' height='17'/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href='http://inmyriadbits.livejournal.com/'&gt;&lt;b&gt;inmyriadbits&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; tells me she has Photoshop Elements. Thanks, Linds. :P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=spatz&amp;ditemid=109775" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>
