Bic + Boredom = GIFs

OK, so here's the situation:

3:00 AM
Insomnia
No internet connection

But I do have ImageReady and Premiere Elements, and a fair-sized video library, so I used them to make GIFs of several things:

<a href="http://img214.imageshack.us/img214/1659 ... z.gif">The floating disembodied head of Colnel Sanders as described in the old Weird Al song "Everything you know is wrong"!</a>

<a href="http://img214.imageshack.us/img214/268/ ... q.gif">The entire "Harvey Birdman Attourney at Law" opening!</a>

<a href="http://img214.imageshack.us/img214/9704 ... o.gif">The entire "Futurama" opening!</a>

<a href="http://img214.imageshack.us/img214/6927/sh3nz.gif">The entire Stroker & Hoop opening!</a>

<a href="http://img214.imageshack.us/img214/5926 ... e.gif">Fry basting the turkey on his head!</a>

Sorry if this is spam, and yes I know the GIFs look kinda sub-par, but they had to fit in ImageShack's standards, and I think they look OK. Plus it's a shorter wait for dial-up users

Any others? Requests? Comments?

More to come as I make them, probably only a few at a time.

That first one is so my avatar. Just one request, can you make the background transparent and/or nonexistent?

My friend and I figured out how to make gifs with individual pictures, but how do you use video?

@ Joedog86: I use Adobe Premiere Elements to export the movie file as a folder full of JPEGs, each of which is a frame. (I ususlly export at 320x240, 5 fps) Then I use ImageReady's "import folder as frames" option to import said folder as an animation, which is then optimized to work with Imageshack.

Please remove those large gifs from your avatars, we have to be kind to those less fortunate
