Just do not do the final save to GIF unless Want to work on an animation in steps or use individual PNG format images forĮach of the frames being edited.
You can use the IM internal format MIFF, as a temporary file format if you This is especially important for resized GIF animations, or ones you haveĪdded a multi-color overlay or underlay, as this can add a lot of extra Not only thatīut it did each frame completely separately to every other frame, producingĭifferent color selections and dither patterns. Resulting animation worse, as IM would have now performed an automatic Color Quantization, to reduce the number ofĬolors present to fit the images into the limited GIF format. If you made the big mistake of saving to GIF you would have just made the Processing, directly to GIF, especially images that you have yet to perform Simple Modifications of Animations First an Important pointĭO NOT save the intermediate, animations which you are not finished Highly recommended that you read and understand the Basics of Animations and at least the overall handling of Optimizing GIF Animations, before trying to This page contains practical examples of working with GIF animations.
