That's some patience doing it frame by frame. Yea, check out After Effects if you can. It's a deep program and the interface may be a little daunting at first, but there are tutorials online. Once you get past the initial "Holy Sh!t, look at all this. Where do I begin!?", the program becomes a blast to use. It's just a suggestion and may be overkill for just making gifs.
Anyways keep up the good work kevol. :good!:
I decided to give After Effects a try. Wow. It's learning curve is steeper than any graphics/animation/video editing program I've used. Gonna take a lot more tutorials before I get the hang of it. I made this Cuonzo gif with it, but it took a ton of trial and error.
