Converting an animated GIF to a group of PNGs

Post by kernos501 »

I am looking for a quick way of converting each frame of an animated GIF into a separate image. If anything can do this it should be GC, but I've not discovered it. What I have been doing is clipping each frame into a folder and then saving the clippings as PNGs. This is OK for a few frames, but when there are 50 or 100 it is cumbersome. I use GC 6 and 8 under Snow Leopard.Thanks, Bill

Dear Bill,simple use convert & modify.Select the animation. Convert to a single frame format like png.That should do it.Thorsten I am looking for a quick way of converting each frame of an animated GIF into a separate image.
