Another bad gif

(1/2) > >>

Dave Yeo:
I notice on the Personal Messages Index page, lots of CPU activity. Seems to be this gif, https://www.os2world.com/forum/Themes/default/images/sort_up.gif. Martin, can you rebuild this gif or change it to a png? Thanks

Martin Iturbide:
Hello Dave.

I think I can not change it to PNG because it will be to painful changing the forum script (that I didn't create).

But I can try rebuilding (resaving) this gif and uploading it. I had saved it with GIMP and it's size increased. I will need to test it out with the browser in OS/2. Are you using firefox here? or Dooble?

Regards

Dave Yeo:
Hi Martin, actually I'm using SeaMonkey but Firefox has the same problem. To test, just drag and drop the gif on an empty browser page and see if CPU goes up. Or post a link to it here and we can test.

Dave Yeo:
Hi Martin, missed the gif you posted, it shows the problem is with Gimp and the gif's it produces, I vaguely remember someone else saying the same.
Here's one I did with Embelish.

Flashback:
No matter how 'broken' the file is, it's the job of the browser to handle it gracefully.
