Any To GIF

Any To GIF is a straightforward, focused tool that creates animated GIFs.

If you want to make animated GIF files, Any To GIF is a very effective solution. The program has a small footprint, doesn't require many resources and works fast. It's also very easy to use. The user interface is intuitive, and even advanced operations like inserts and appends are simple to perform.

With Any To GIF, you can create a new GIF file from one or more images. You may also append or insert images into an existing GIF. The program supports practically any format, including JPEG and PNG. You can just add these files in the order of your choice, and the program handles the rest. If you want greater control, you have the option to set GIF parameters, delay time, file size and quality.

The preview tool is excellent and reflects changes as they happen, so if you modify a parameter on the GIF or fiddle with the quality level, you'll see what it looks like right away. This makes it very easy to create great GIFs by poking at images rather than needing a technical understanding of how GIFs and other image formats work.

Any To GIF is also quite fast. In fact, a preview is essentially a converted GIF, and the program just has to move and rename the temporary file if you decide to save it. The program also has a very narrow focus; this may be a good or bad thing depending on your perspective and needs. Image editing software that's more robust is likely to include a GIF maker as well as a number of other editing tools, but those will probably never be as convenient and to the point as this program.
