Trout's GIF Optimizer

Freeware to create smaller GIF files

[ What's New | Comments | Reviews | Help | Download Now! ]

Trout's GIF Optimizer shrinks GIFs without any noticable reduction of picture quality

Example
This picture started as an 11 kB Bitmap
after optimizing ... 6 kB
finally after reducing colors ... 2 kB

It will even convert other graphics to optimized GIFs:

• Bitmaps (*.bmp)
• JPEGs (*.jpg; *jpeg)
• Icons (*.ico)
• Metafiles (*.wmf; *.emf)

Just drag-and-drop files then Save

Supports animated GIFs

Just wanted to let you know I find your GIF Optimizer very useful and that I've posted it as a free download on my Webmaster Tools page at

Thanks for sharing such a fine program!

Terrific!

I just tried it out today, and it compresses better than the built-in compression of a GIF animation program I recently tried - good stuff, I'm going to keep it! :-)
