I decided to upgrade from Ubuntu 10.10 to 11.04. Complete failure. I’m in a livecd right now repairing the damage through a chrooted shell. Hopefully within the hour I’ll have a functioning beta of Natty Narwhal!

Installed Gnome 3 on Ubuntu 10.10. It’s ok but I expected more out of it. It’s only about 1 week until 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) comes out. I so want to install the developmental version but I know it’s just going to be twice as much of a pain in the ass. Once it’s released I believe I’d have to do a dist-upgrade again. 11.04 will ship with Unity as the shell rather than Gnome. I hope it is going to be better than Gnome3… that was the point of Unity in the first place.
How do you make your gifs so long? It's ridiculous man, cheers.
AnonymousIt’s maaaaagick OOooooooo. :P
I’m on Linux, I use Avidemux to crop video and then export the frames as jpegs. Then I use ImageMagick to create the gif. It depends on the content of your gif as to which settings you need to use. The ones I use most are as follows:
-colors
-layers OptimizeTransparency -fuzz 0%
-dither None
-remap
-fuzz and -layers work together
-remap will force all frames to use a single colormap
and -dither None will turn off dither which is good in certain cases.
Also black and white is really easy to compress. And you can generally get away with cutting out 2/3 of the frames with no problem.
It’s all trial and error so good luck.
