re: Teach a man to Fish (Fark Board Beginner Questions)


Does the GAP program on page 10 no longer work with GIMP in v2.8?

What program do you guys for converting videos into pics to make gifs? I currently use AVS, but I think the amount of frames I use makes the GIF really slow. Any GIF I try to make in gimp from a video ends up lagging.

I use CS6, but this is a good, free website. You can always crop the bottom out.

Anybody else having problems with photobucket? Ever since the redo, I've had trouble uploading gifs. It automatically resizes them to very small and I can't figure out how to stop it.

It takes a few steps, but these free programs seem to work well for making gifs from youtube videos.

Free version of YTD video downloader will let you grab youtube videos and convert to .wmv

YTD Video downloader

Use Windows Live Movie Maker to slice up the video, and then "save movie" and I typically use the Zune HD (for device)setting which makes a nice size .wmv file

iWisoft free video converter does a good job of making .gif files from the .wmv file , you just have to play with the settings a bit.

Iwisoft Free Video Converter

There may be one tool to do all of this, but this is how I have been able to pull you tube clips, edit them, and make decent gifs with no logos, all with free software.

New tool I found called Virtualdub will take a Gif that doesn't have complete frames and save it as an avi file with complete frames. Then you can use Iwisoft to save back as a Gif and all frames are complete.
