Making Gifs

Hey what do you use to make gifs and how do you get them to move on the main page? I haven't had much luck with it.

For making the gifs, I use GifCam. You can record straight from Mabi with it, but Mabi's annoying about switching focus back and forth so for some things I find it better to record with something like FRAPS and then play it in VirtualDub so I can record the gif frame-by-frame. Mainly because you want gifs to be efficient, no wasted frames and not too long and junk. http://blog.bahraniapps.com/gifcam/

As far as getting them to play properly, make sure you're uploading them at correct size for display in the page in the first place so that they're not scaled or thumbnailed.

I'm trying my best here, and I got the gif made and working, but it's not showing up on the item's page. Could I have some help in pointing out what I did wrong please? http://wiki.mabinogiworld.com/view/Debonair_Groom's_Tuxedo

I'm going to guess the #x# pixel is too big and try once more in a smaller size. If that doesn't work, I'll hang tight and wait for you to look at it.

YES! I got it working. Thank you so very much for linking me that gif program. I, no joke, tried 7 different websites and 3 other programs while trying to figure out how to make a working gif for the wiki. Feel free to talk a look when you have a moment.
