Toejam GIF can show up to 256 colors in any one image (or frame of animation) out of a possible palette of 16.7 million colors. (RGB x 8 bits = 3x8 = 24, 2^24=16.7m roughly) Posted 7 years ago Report Link Quote Reply
Exedrus @Marima I see! That’s good to know, thanks! It’s a shame that GIMP doesn’t seem to support that, although I guess animation has never been that program’s focus. Posted 7 years ago Report Link Quote Reply
Marima Meddlesome Peon @Exedrus ImageMagick, it comes with many most linux distros I’ve tried. After exporting the layers I made a script like this: convert \ -delay 200 ./01.png \ -delay 10 ./02.png \ -delay 10 ./03.png \ … -delay 200 ./205.png \ -loop 0 animated.gif and ran it in the same directory. I believe the pallet may still be limited, but on a frame by frame basis rather than across the entire animation. Posted 7 years ago Report Edited 7 years ago Link Quote Reply
Exedrus Huh, didn’t realize that GIF could show more than the usual 255 color pallet. What program did you use to get past this? Posted 7 years ago Report Link Quote Reply
