gif help

I am useing  coreldraw 11  and wen I am in Photopain I can take all my  JPGs  and turn them into a GIF Animation file and it works.

 

Now I use the Dither to help it  simulate  more Colors  I know GIF is  256 color Limit.

And I pick Optimixe option  but in the  Dither Dropdown box there are three options

 

Stucki
Jarvis
Floyd Streinberg

 

Witch one of these is good for if you are useing  JPG Photos?????

I can't say that I ever used dithering in GIFs. I always used "optimized
palette with no dithering". Not too many people use GIF animations any
more - what are you doing that requires a GIF animation instead of another
form of animation?

I also use CD 11 and have to dither whenever I am lasering photo images into the materials I have to work with.  I don't do animations though -- but when dithering, I find that Jarvis (Medium) at 250 - 333 dpi gives me the best results.  The Floyd Steinburg (Fine) tries to compress too much into the image and alot of detail darkens when I use that setting and the Stucki (Low) doesn't give enough detail to recognize the image -- and that's even with increasing the dpi setting.

I just make littel GIF Animationa for my web site and they work so I stick with it.

 

Anyway Dithering  makes  it look like you have more colors  right?????

Dithering does trick the eyes.
