Exactly, Animated GIFs are only efficient if they are short. Plus I find them easier to make and opitimise than AVI's. Short AVI's also tend to be much larger than the same video as an Animated GIF - no idea why. The GIMP (graphics editor) has excellent Animated GIF support, and can optimise successive images only to contain the difference between the previous frame - making the whole animated gif much smaller. Sieghard is correct though, animated gifs are limited to 256 colors, so if you do full screen videos, it is preferred that your desktop background has a solid image (looks better in any video anyway). Anyway, enough about videos. :) Regards, - Graeme - -- fpGUI Toolkit - a cross-platform GUI toolkit using Free Pascal http://fpgui.sourceforge.net/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Master Visual Studio, SharePoint, SQL, ASP.NET, C# 2012, HTML5, CSS, MVC, Windows 8 Apps, JavaScript and much more.
