GIFwork

At the start was the wish to create some nice animated picture like those you may encounter while surfing in the web. This prompted the author to look for a suitable tool to create animated GIF files.   Unfortunately the discovery was that this various tools kill straightway your creativity with endless clicks through umpteen windows and in the worst case they even decide instead of you what has to come out. After various unsatisfactory attempts the author decided to create by own means a simple tool which combined with a performant image editor would lead to sounder results.   It must be pointed out that when it comes to handling images those editors are always better than any of the mentioned tools. What is needed is only a tool who will merge your image sequence into an animated GIF file and subsidiarily will allow you to make rapid changes to the settings to fine tune the result.

The GIFwork application was designed to be a small utility for generating and maintaining animated GIF files.

Its main purpose is to merge the constituent images (or graphic elements) of the animation sequence (or cycle) into one single "animated" GIF file which can be integrated into HTML documents with an adequate editor. Another interesting feature is the ability to streamline an existing animated GIF file so as to make its file size smaller.

Accessorily you may also change selected settings of an existing animated GIF file, this usually without having to disassemble and reassemble it.
