I tried something out, but its 2 MB's ... You cannot get a smooth animated picture that is under 500 mb, mate. (maybe you can, not sure)

Yeah, I get it. That was supposed to be a banned for website. So this is taking toooooooo long.


Anyway, I am changing rules little bit now. Read the first post again.

Look, let me tell you how an .agif/.gif (animated) works. For every frame used in the .agif (Which will be like 20 for real smooth movement (9 for fading between each pictures and 2 for each REAL picture) ) it's counted as 1 image. Example: Your 2 images both are let's say 250kb, there are 20 frames, so 250x20 = 5000kilobytes > about 4.9megabytes (1mb = 1024kb = 1000bytes (weird it's not 1024 like gb and tb but true) )

I hope you understood why we can't have a very smooth one below 3mb

I know how it works, through the program I was doing it, it was like 26 images in total for 76*26 and plus for second one, that ended up by 3mb.

I though there are some programs that compresses it or w/e. Okay, then. Could you guys photoshop these images into 1, but like nice transparency, I want it look professional.

Do it in JPG.

Edit each pic with Paint (just mark one dot on the pic somewhere down the pic so no one will notice it), And then make animation..

I did it yesterday also. Size came down to 76kb. But when you make animation, it makes 30-40 pics combined, which ends up at 2-3 mb..

Still, its ok. No need for animation anymore. Just make a nice 2 picts in 1 pics, like this one, BUT BETTER:

I didn't want to stretch the borders much as they go blurry after transformation, I saved bottom border by adding 2px noise
