After you upload

Set the frame rate and width for your GIF, then run it.

Options explained

Frames per second (fps)
How many frames play each second. Higher fps is smoother and more cinematic but greatly increases the file size; lower fps keeps the file small. Choose to suit your needs.
Width (px)
The output width; height follows automatically to keep the proportions. A smaller width is the quickest way to cut file size for chat apps or email.
