Hi,

I was a very long time I didn’t need to created a animated gif… I had a program before to take a static images (.jpg, .png etc…) and convert then into an animated gif…

All the web search engine push for online (aka SaaSS) tool 🤮

Do you know a program that do that ( Linux )

Thanks.

You can try the GIMP. Each layer is a animation frame when you export project as a GIF.

Example instruction.

As a CLI there is gifsicle or imagemagick.

As a gui maybe gifcurry, tupitube or some other 2d animation tool https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_2D_animation_software

ffmpeg is my go to for things like this but I can never remember the necessary incantation on the command line. Fortunately ChatGPT tends to get you most of the way there a lot of the time, I would normally asks something like the following and start from there:

I use gifski

It’s designed to squeeze the best quality possible out of the ancient format that is gif
