I also use Screen to Gif. And Peek on Linux which isn’t as good. The limitation is that the forum only accepts maximum file size of 4mb for gifs.

Hello!

Thanks to you two for your answer.
Yesterday, i made research and i downloaded too Screen To Gif.
I made a test and i saw that the GIF file size is rather large.

In any case, thanks again to you.

There’s a few different options for saving that will affect quality and file size. I haven’t used it consistently enough to have picked a good one. But one easy way to reduce file size is to change the dimensions in the Image tab and choose Resize

Another way is to reduce the frame rate (at the bottom right of the capture frame). It’s defaulted to 60, but you can lower that to 30 or even 20 and probably get away with it.

Ok. Thanks to all for your help and advices.
I’ll do soon a fast test with Screen To Gif.
