Can I create multiple .gif images using Paint on Windows?

Question

As I am trying to create a .gif file with two images in it for a advert I need to put online. Is it possible to make this on Paint? Or will I have to get a program like Photoshop, or anything like that?

Thanks!

Answer 1

You can.  

Answer 2

Paint only uses .JPG files. Any file you post onto it, the program will convert it to a .JPG file. I used to use photoshop 7.0 for converting my images, but I no longer can use it. So I decided to go back to using PSP XI and I also tried out Imageready. Using either one as a .GIF file with all the colors make it look like a .PDF file.

It would be far better to use Gimp or Paint.NET combined with unfreez.

There are many Tutorials on how to do this, some of which is found at:
