Question
Hi Joseph,
I recently downloaded Microsof gif animator.  It's alright and all, but my gifs come out too small to use.  How can i make them larger?  Is there any other free animators that are better than microsoft?
Thanks
Amanda

Answer
Amanda - Are you sure your "export" or "save" settings don't have an option for how large the gif animation is output to? Alternatively, when you create the gif animation, is your compostion or "canvas", and/or artwork large enough? It seems odd to me that the gif animation would get saved out at a smaller size than what you created it at.
