Looking for something to use to convert quicktime, avis, etc into animated GIFs.

Try Image Ready. Open a movie then crop what you want. Can do it in Flash as well, but Flash's GIF output is atrocious.

What's image ready?

Wow, I actually made an avatar from a movie clip! Now all I need is a place to host it, for free. Any suggestions? (Anonymizer + something pherhafs?)

Jasc Animation Shop is what I use. Open a video file, cut out frames you don't want and you're basically done.

As for hosting: imageshack.us

OK I can only find links to tutorials when I google image ready. As for Jasc I tried it along time ago and now my trial time is over.

For Quicktime movies I usually select the portion I want to make a GIF from, export the movie as JPEG frames and then import those images into Image Ready. I do some tweaking with the timing and smooth transitions for the loops and that's it.
