On April 04, 2001, Christopher Farley sent me the following: > I'm running the latest version of GIMP and I can load and save gifs > left and right. > > Unlike image formats like .jpg, .gif images need to be converted to > indexed color mode before GIMP (or Photoshop or any other image > manipulation program) will save them. In the GIMP that I'm running (1.2.1) there is support for gif files, and I've found you don't have to manually convert to indexed color before saving. Just set the Determine File Type to By Extension, type in a file name ending in .gif, and it will pop up an Export File window for your image conversion needs.
