Exactly what it says on the tin. I'm looking for a program to make animated gifs with, and I want to hear recommendations. Yeah, I know I can just Google "GIF program download" or some such, but I'd rather skip the experimenting with random garbage and use something tried and true that members of the community are already happy with.
Something that can pull straight from video (including .mkv format) would be nice, but I can settle for something that just uses screenshots if necessary.

Never tried Image Ready, but is Photoshop capable of animated gifs? I've only used it for simple, small-time jobs so I haven't really seen a lot of what it's capable of. I might still have the setup.exe on my old computer. I'll look more into it, thanks.

Here's a website too:

Enh, it's okay, but even at the highest speed setting, the animations that site made were painfully slow. Thanks anyway, though.

photoshop can't make gifs on its own. you only make the frames of the gifs on photoshop and export it to imageready to animate. you can make frames on imageready as well, but the frames can be edited more easily on photoshop. so really, you would only ever need imageready, but it's good to have both.
photoshop CS2 (my preferred version) comes with imageready. i don't know if this is true for the later releases.
edit: a quick google shows that the latest version of photoshop can make gifs on its own. i'm living in the past. i refuse to advance however.

Virtual Dub maybe ?
I mean, if you put the picture on the same folder it's easy to load and easy to make avi or gif (you acn also choose the frame rate).
Use that kind of name :
Picture_name (1).jpg
Picture_name (2).jpg
Picture_name (3).jpg
Ect
So it will load in that order.
