That's a really nice animated GIF, with very little color and font degradation. I'd love to know how it was made. I have [a couple I made recently here](http://robenkleene.github.io/2016/03/17/live-search/ http://robenkleene.github.io/2016/03/17/live-search/) using [gifify](https://github.com/vvo/gifify https://github.com/vvo/gifify). Maybe it's just the color palette that makes it look better?
- KaoruAoiShiho 11y agoSeriously is there a tool for making these gifs? Converting from video always gets degradation.
- dewski 11y agoI know a lot of GitHubbers use http://www.cockos.com/licecap/ http://www.cockos.com/licecap/ to make their GIFs
- biftek 11y agolicecap is awesome, but this gif looks like it was programmatically made. Notice the accelerated yet perfectly aligned cursor movement...

- sdesol 11y ago> Maybe it's just the color palette that makes it look better The color palette size definitely plays a part, but the vast majority of degradation is the result of scaling down. This is what a gif looks like which was captured at HD (1280x720) and scaled down to 670x377 http://gitsense.github.io/images/realtime-blog/master.gif http://gitsense.github.io/images/realtime-blog/master.gif The gif in GitHub's post hasn't been scaled down at all, which makes all the difference in the world.
