: What software to create this gif with animation effect? I'm not sure what software I should use to create this gif, which is small in size (311kb) and yet having effect like a swf video.

Besides all the above mentioned, you could still use Adobe Fireworks to create this animation.


it is more powerful than Photoshop for creating animations (it has onion skinning, more control over the frames);
it is better than Photoshop at manipulating vector objects.
Apple didn't killed it (although Adobe did)

Nearly any video app can do this, i would suggest looking into:


AfterEffects
Flash
Fusion
Photoshop
Video Paint
etc etc


This is extremely simple animation and can therefore be done also in many more apps than normal. Its even feadible to do this frame by frame. And you could do thos even in powerpoint.

Adobe Flash can do this, unfortunately APPLE killed Flash in browsers, but this is an excellent use of it.

In order to keep the file size small you will need to limit your pallet and stick to block colours, DO NOT use gradients.
