I think thats a wee bit beyond my skills at the moment. getting the nipple clamps entwined with her fingers was annoying enough.

sorry for threadjack
how do I optimize a gif anim? It's about 300k at the moment and if I tiny-cate it any more it will only be visible with a microscope. Thanks in advance.

how rude: woo to ichi

the polite way
to threadjack is to click "i like this" on the original message 50 times. Honest.

i've wondered that myself
reduce colour pallette to minimum
make sure each successive frame is just transparency and the changes
no idea beyond that...
(boris the spider, Tue 27 Mar 2007, 11:54, archived)

Use less colours
and lower the quality.

Just mess about until you get a reasonable mix between image size and looking OK.

There's also an automatic optimising thingy where you can set the filesize you want to optimise to but I can't remember how to use it.

Anims are allowed up to about 250k by the way.

Thanks
for the help, have trimmed it down to 240k ish, anymore and it looks really really shit....instead of just shit.
( FredAstaireAteMyTapShoes but he left me this fetching ballgown, Tue 27 Mar 2007, 12:02, archived)

on the optimisation palette, click the ">", then choose "optimise to file size"
Edit: if you're using photoshop, of course
