i found a gif on the net that i want 2 use as my avatar but its 2 big (280kb). how can i make it smaller?wat program do i use?

[Mungoman45]

I use either Gif construction set Professional or Animation shop 3. that'll let ya do most stuff, although i dont think you'll be able to use those programs to reduce filesize unless ya reduse the gif size...and it'll probably end up too shitty, blurry and small in the end anyways once ya get it down to 20kb.....but good luck with it :)

paint is shit for basically everything lol. It's only a stock Microsoft drawing program for parents to let their little kids play with.
No offence to any of you that use it to edit bikes..... If it's a stock gif, paint will open it and ya can resize it, but if it's an annimated gif, you will need a proper gif or animation program such as the 2 i stated above. If ya wanna....whack it up in here and I'll see what i can do ;)
