Tried it out. Still need to play with it, but overall it's a cool little tool!

EDIT:

Tried again, still getting pixels and stuff. Thinking either my frame is too big or it has too many colors.
 
Gonna re-post what I posted yesterday in case anyone had the same problem and figured it out. I really want this thing to work :(
hmm, never seen that. Does it do that regardless if you change the size of the app?

Man, it was so weird and awesome watching what I thought was a horror movie turn into a really awesome action one. The plot got stupid but it was worth it for all those crazy ass scenes.

Yea I liked it for what it was. Everyone was panning it as the next Lady Vengeance/Old Boy. Totally didn't see that. I was going to post the opening revenge scene from Princess Aurora, but I think that would have been too much.

This is really neat. But is there a way to make it smoother? Or is that the way they recorded this video, which seems to be 30fps?

But when I see Sunhi's gifs they are really smooth.... So I'm kind of confused.

The smother the GIF, the larger the file size. GIFs aren't supposed to be too smooth, unless you plan to have a huge file.

And I think he made it his old fashioned way, for the Terminator clips.
 
I'm sure there's frame culling that goes on even without removing every other frame. You'll get better results using old fashion methods, but GifCam is great for those who don't feel like going through all that.

One of the best movies. EVER.
 
Anyone post this? he updated his frontpage

I received an email from Softpedia on 3/4/2013, It is about GifCam and the willing to list it on their site, I didn’t pay attention to their email, I thought it is ok they will link back to the app page, no problem, but I just discovered they did not, they took GifCam app, put it in their server and before you download it you have to go through three pages of advertisements.
so the final result:
6,074 download from Softpedia (till now).
Softpedia is making money from my app.
I received ZERO support (till now) .
Isn’t that nice :)
Softpedia took his app and is making money off it

Edit: NM, old story is oold

This thing is incredible. I was previously using iWisoft, which was a pain in the ass to use and meant I never bothered making many gifs.

Are you kidding me, this is incredible. Thank you for posting this!

What's with the green sizzle-bizzle sometimes though? Am I doing something wrong?

This is the software that will change tumblr forever.
Not really. These file sizes are atrocious and tumblr only takes 1MB which is why the GIFs on it are so shitty.

Someone posted an 11MB GIF. Resize it so it looks 80% the as big but is 50% of the size for the love of progress. Don't get me started on how unsmooth so many of these are.

This is what's next.

GIF shaming.

Most of these look absolutely horrendous.

The 10 fps also make it shitty for so many things.

The first two are YT vids, but you need to play the third one with Kega Fusion to see the original animation. Channel 2 (easier to see in chaotix mode which shows you what all the audio channels are doing) does something you can't see in that 10fps gif and at the bottom you can't see how the blue squares flash as the drum samples play. Not to mention how jeeeerky it is.

Pretty sweet! GIFed my little HTML5 hobby project:

platformer_256rpdxm.gif


Had to save it at 256 colors though, at the highest quality I kept getting "greenscreen" artifacts all over the place.

EDIT: Hmm, it's not looping for me when viewing it in the thread. Maybe it's just Chrome that can't cope? Works fine if I view it separately.
 
my only guess is that you have multiple monitors with different resolutions? I dunno. I haven't used this program yet, but that situation gives me the same kinda issues with other programs.

Nope, only one, but that does make me think of another possibility. I increased the display size because everything was too damn small when I got the computer. Only problem is I don't remember how I did it at all, and I don't really want to put it back to how it was.
