One thing I stumbled upon on mine was, for SOME reason, mine wasn't set to forever looping. It took me a good long time to figure that out, but for anyone else dealing with that, there is a dialogue box at the bottom of that menu that deals with looping! Thanks so much for this tutorial, it was IMMENSELY helpful!
Thank you for this video. As an update, the newer versions of Photoshop consolidated these steps in the Export option under File, but you can still use the shortcut keys.
Thanks for this. I'm exporting GIFs almost daily from After Effects but needed to use PS to export with alpha channel. Thanks to this I now know what makes my GIFS so ridiculously big. Cheers!
finally, i did much searchings to find how to save a gif, i saved everytine .gif but it made a stop gif, idle gif, and it helped me to save the gif, thank you dude !
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I found your excellent video, but what I wanted to know is as I am creating the frames and saving them off to build my GIF animated video, what file format should I be saving each frame off at, or should I just save all the frames off as GIFs? Thanks!
Hey, CyberPunk can you help me out? I've followed your instructions and I still keep getting a white pixel border around my gif. It looks really janky on the transparent background.
thanks for this video.. but i have problem that when i exporting as gif with the music attachment, gif can't exporting with the music. So, what can i do?
I don't know what the fuck I did wrong but when the GIF is in Photoshop it's fine but when it exports the images stay visible and the animation keeps playing. Probably won't respond but it would be great if u could...
I’m so sorry for the late response! I haven’t been in a good state of mind after my Grandmother whom I lived with & grew up with every day passed away. I went into a dark place for a while there, are you still having issues? I can look into this more to help you out if you’d like
At the top left corner of the "save for web" settings theres the "original" option beside "optimized." It raises the file size drastically but it looks good

Im making an animated layover for a twitch and the quality dropped so much its absolutely unusable.. tried everything on the video, been messing with it a while and nothing fixes it, it exports as a pixeled mess places that had a fade effect look like they were made with the spray tool on mspaint sometimes it looks like its gonna export is a bit better quality, if i click "original" then back to "optimised" it shows up as the pixely mspaint mess, it blows!
I'm sorry to hear. I've had a similar issue to this before when I tried making the background invisible so it was just a floating GIF file. Two questions, what color background are you using (also, is it invisible?) And how many frames total is the file?
keep in mind gif's are limited to max 256 colors as I understand it, thus comparing to a full color animation / video will always look a lot worse and in some cases is more obvious.
@@markus4979 yeah I just had never had it to that degree but it was probably due to my color choices we decided to export a png and leave it at that, thanks for the reply tho!
@@Metastrator no problem Bro appreciate the reply.. Yeah I think it's because of the canvas size.. I adjusted it a bit but still have a transparent frame around it What size was yours?
@@DoodyDraws I generally resized it directly in the "Save For Web" option, I have a few different sizes for posting in certain places ^_^ - Without actually seeing your file though I don't know how much help I can be, I'm sorry
The original on mine is so beautifull made it my self but on export settings it looks absolute shit its a shame that after effects cant export good quality gif
I’m so sorry for the late response! My Grandmother whom I lived with & grew up with every day passed away and I haven’t been able to get onto UA-cam and respond to my viewers. Thank you SO SO much for your support & comment, I cannot express how happy I am that you took the time to reach out to me. Seriously, thank you so much.
Well, technically you change the length of your animation VIA the timeline & frame manipulation, but, if you have a question (and or) want suggestions on your file, feel free to ask! I'll do the best I can to guide you correctly.
@@Metastrator Thanks. I found if I change the size to 350 wide that chunks the size down quite a bit. Is the average size about 5 to 9 megs for a 4 or 5 sec Meme video GIF sound about right?

Can you get this high qualify GIF exported as a media file to share to social media platforms such as Instagram and TikTok?
Thanks! I was going crazy for like 10 minutes.
Tried to save it but it says "Could not complete this operation. An unknown error has occured."
Same
@@jxproduction9713 same

@@mariyahaljneibi5822 same here, my file size is tiny too
Try to reduce d number of frames(layers)
Hi I would like to ask what could I do to improve the resolution of the gif if there are 150 frames 🥲🥲🥲
Man, great tutorial!
My gif keeps showing the previous frames when I save it? How can I fix this ?
Thnbks for the tutorial, Sir!. It's very helped me, now I know what is the shortcut. Because, I don't see there "save for web"

Thanks this was useful. also i can hear your chickens in the background :)

Thank you so much for this video, precise and perfect for my search....great great!
Thank you for the tutorial, first time posting a gif so it helped me a lot!
My gif quality turned out to be horrible. Not sure why that's happening. I used the online converter you showed.
Hey, CyberPunk can you help me out? I've followed your instructions and I still keep getting a white pixel border around my gif. It looks really janky on the transparent background.
whay mine goes static even with the animations on!
thanks for this video.. but i have problem that when i exporting as gif with the music attachment, gif can't exporting with the music. So, what can i do?
Gif cant have audio lol
it was so helpful thank you so much
my gif had white background and when i saved it, the white color changed to light blue, do you know why please?
This was helpful AF! thank you ☺️✌🏽✨
You sir, have saved my buns.
Thank you
Thanks so much! this worked well!
I don't know what the fuck I did wrong but when the GIF is in Photoshop it's fine but when it exports the images stay visible and the animation keeps playing. Probably won't respond but it would be great if u could...
My gif is made of transparent photos, and when I watch the gif tey overlap and I can see all the frames at once.

Thanks bro for this tutorial this helped me alot
Great tutorial, my gif looks super crisp-crystal clear now! Thank you!!!!
Thanks a lot brother. Was facing with an error while exporting.
Thank you for this video, now I have idea to save my animation in Photoshop
Is there any way to export the gif as the original version and not the optimized version?
At the top left corner of the "save for web" settings theres the "original" option beside "optimized." It raises the file size drastically but it looks good
@@finfromthedeep That didn't work for me, do you have any ideas why?

Sorry for the late reply, been really busy! Are you still having problems?
@@Metastrator no problem Bro appreciate the reply.. Yeah I think it's because of the canvas size.. I adjusted it a bit but still have a transparent frame around it
What size was yours?

you're a lifesaver!
I did everything but the gif is overlapping the last motion over and over
That sounds more like a timeline issue on your gif, do you know how to extend the times of each frame?
CyberPunk no but I can figure it out somehow. The frame like doesn’t disappear.
holly I cant find save for web on PS6
The original on mine is so beautifull made it my self but on export settings it looks absolute shit its a shame that after effects cant export good quality gif
Thanks man 👍

i keep getting unkown error when i try to save
nvm i think the file size might be to big
So doing this export process from PS, my GIF is 7 seconds long, 712x480 in size, and over 18 megabytes. 😕

Yes, you can always check imgur or other sites as well and download a few and right click them -> check their properties as well!
