Under a Lone Palm
I'm looking for a good free GIF editor. Just something simple to play with. I don't have FTP or any real working knowledge of Linux so I kinda need a point and click format. Even if there was one to buy I wouldn't mind if I had the heads up on something good. There are a figgin hundred out there. But the advice of someone who has used an app. would be an asset.
Any tips would be appreciated.:wave:

Do you want to edit animated gif's or just static gif's?

You could edit gif's with Microsoft Paint, it's doesn't have a whole lot of options though. Whenever I have needed to edit graphics, I used Macromedia Fireworks or Photoshop.

You could try out a program called "Gimp". It's similar to photoshop, yet it is free due to it being open source. The learning curve might be a little steep though.

Making animated gif files is going to vary program to program.

Google for animated gif <program name> howto or animated gif <program name> tutorial, etc.

Other programs that people may wish to consider in place of photoshop (due to its price)

GIMP : The best comparison for anyone, open source development, and is catching back up to photoshop again.

Paint.net

http://gimp.org
http://www.getpaint.net/index2.html

Both of these are free. Gimp is cross platform, works on ANY os (32 bit). Paint.net is limited to 32 bit windows architectures right now.
