How to make a GIF?

[Dashabel 381]

Hi,

 

I've only ever made 1 GIF via a website where you can upload a YouTube video and take a few seconds of it, however I do not know how to edit this further, resize it, etc. I made one that I quite liked myself, and put it in my profile, but it seems to have just expired.

 

Can anyone give me tips and guidelines when it comes to GIF making?

The GIF isn't playing because the GIF size is too big. You need to resize it to make it work. Try this website, it helped me back in March when I resized tons of pony avatars. 125x125 is the perfect size.

 

However, you just want to make a gif out of pictures, such to make it move, try this website.
