Part 4 : Save and Rewind
Saving the animation at the right level of resolution can reduce the file size. Here's how. (Don't forget to save the photoshop file first!)
Go to File » Save for Web in the menu. Select Gif in the file-type drop down menu in the Save dialogue panel.
You can now try out some of the other settings to reduce file size.
The following images show the different results:
256 colours: 564k. (sorry, quite a large file to view!)
64 colours: 104k. (460k saved)
As you can see, the animation hasn't lost all detail by reducing the file size. Experiment until you get the desired result.
