How can I make an animated GIF image?

Hi, If you are serious about making those gif images, you should install Flash in your system and then learn it. Flash is not only useful in animations, but it also has an extensive application in gaming. If you know flash you can just do anything on the web. You can do different kinds of slideshows, and then save it as gif or any other format. You can do extensive animation and then add action script to it to make it more interactive. You can even do all that you used to do in some Image processing softwares like Photoshope. You can also build forms and small applications with Flash. But if you are not into such extensive implementations I would recommend you choose a more light-weight application like ImageReady etc. It may take significant time to learn Flash. But once you learn it, there is nothing like it. Thanks God bless you
