Need help changing wmv to gif

[dudeman007]

Well my friend wants to get this video and use it as an avatar.

Here's the file

Sound obviously is not needed, and if all possible could you change the size of the video so that the resolution is 125 X whatever the other value is comparatively.

All help is appreciated. Thanks

image (didn't know which frame you wanted)... if he wants to do it himself... just open the wmv in Media Player Classic... it has a save image as feature which saves it as a bmp. Just use an image editor/converter from there.

Thanks rh71, BUT I need it to stay as a video. It's going to be used as an avatar! BUMP!

you mean you want it as an animated gif?

I think I can do that in PhotoImpact / GIF Animator, I'll try to remember when I'm at work tomorrow where my good rig lives

All rightie then, how's this look: http://www.omnicast.net/~tmcfadden/rockstunt.gif I added a fade-to-white on each end so it looks a little nicer. Still a bit hefty even after taking out half the frames, but it wasn't going to get much smaller without looking ugly.
