Reviewed by: CNET Staff
In the past, this useful app's biggest drawback has been its interface. The latest edition of Easy GIF Animator fixes that problem and doesn't look back. The new control panel is easy to use, with a friendly, well-labeled and optional Welcome screen that even the greenest of beginners can understand.
The app creates animated banners, buttons, or other Web images, with more than enough ease for Web neophytes but with enough depth for those who need more. When creating a new image, you have the option to choose how often the animation sequence is played, how many frames play per second, and where the image is positioned in relation to the frame. Inserting blank frames into the animation sequence can be done with one click, and a handful of common graphics tools are included so you can touch up color, line, or font details. You also can save the animation for Flash and add music and sound to it, making the app useful for more than just beginners.
Overall, this easy-to-use and reliable program will help first-time Web site owners add a bit of panache without the need for extensive coding knowledge or a big budget.

Version: Easy GIF Animator 4.8
"Works OK within its limitations"
Pros: Can use plain background, your own graphics, or a color gradient. Also you can build multi-picture anims. You can also label them with text. Advantage: CHEAP
Cons: Has a serious memory leak that is apparent when you are running 512 megs (or less) ram. Reported to author, was blown off. Make a couple changes in text or color, heck any changes and suddenly there is a gifan.exe error saying that it must shut down.
Summary: Great to make a quick little 2 or three frame anim but not a heavy duty animation utility. If you are serious about gif animations this may not be the utility for you.
