Description
I can make small sprites on my dad's laptop now, but I have to use the touchpad.Animation practice.
Now that it has less KB thanks to ~The-Fry-Bat it can be a free icon now, I suppose.

It looks really great. I was gonna say this. Not sure why I didn't.

The way its body trails behind it and spread out on the surface is well rendered, but it sort of looks like it's just lazily levitating up and down, and that the ground only happens to be in its way by coincidence, instead of actually jumping. While it's airborne, you could try decreasing the number of frames, or speeding them up, or I don't know, because GRAVITY, my friend.

Okay, I got rid of a few and I had a question:
Is there some way I can save animations with a lot of frames such as this with less KB?

HRM, alrighty, firstly I made a few edits myself to see how my thoughts turned out: [link]
I basically cut out a few more frames from when it's dropping and landing. BUT after reading what you mentioned about the intentional slowdown, I kind of feel like I'm tinkering with ideas that I oughtn't be. You can take critiques, but it all boils down to you being the arbiter of your own art, the one who decides what's best to change or not change here.
As for the file size issue, I save my GIF files by clicking "save optimized as" under the file tab, which is enough to minimize their KBs. I downloaded this piece and saved it thusly, which cut it down to about 3 KB. Does your program have that option? Does it?
Does it?

Meh, I think I'll just take your word for it and update it with that, if you don't mind.
Since it wasn't obvious enough, I think I'll just get rid of the idea of the slowdown, it's really small and simple for that kind of thing anyway.
NO IT DOES NOT

DAMMIT. Well, try exploring your program and maybe you'll come across a function along those lines? It'd be kind of pesky to not have a way to compress your files.

I think I'll get back to you on that once I get my new computer.

Your oldy moldy computer would turn over in its trash bin if it knew of the problems its death inflicted on you. Unless its a real jerk; if so, then its digital ghost is laughing so hard now. :'c

Essentially I tried to kind of do a slow down type style that's used in a lot of animation, but I will try to remove a couple frames and see what happens.

So, this one is better?

Perhaps better, though they are different.

True, I think I'll remake the other later.
