    Animated GIF Issue

    Alright so im trying to make an animated gif, but it loses quality. I have tried importing a color table, but as each image needs its own color palette this does not work either. Any suggestions or tips would be great.

              what do you mean by "it losses quality"? with gif files, you're limited to a max of 256 colors, so, unless you're working with flat color files, quality loss is a given. The more detailed the image, the more colors, the more quality loss. So really don't know if that's what you mean

                All I am trying to do, is animate 1 picture after another..no special effects or anything but it keeps losing quality. Does the coffee cup produce better quality then adobe fireworks?

                  A gif has a single 256 color palette.. So all the images/frames in the gif have to use the exact same palette. What I've found that helps is to color reduce each image down to something like 16 bits.. then try using them... If that still sucks, what I'll do is make a collage of all the images and try various color reductions to get the entire thing down to 256 colors. At that point I'll cut the image back up into individual gif images and then use those to make the gif.
