Hi,

I was a very long time I didn't need to created a animated gif... I had a program before to take a static images (.jpg, .png etc..) and convert then into an animated gif..

All the web search engine push for online (aka SaaSS) tool 🤮

Do you know a program that do that ( Linux )

Thanks.

This is the guide for making the gif look good: https://blog.pkh.me/p/21-high-quality-gif-with-ffmpeg.html
