Found a couple of Gif apps, GifCam and ScreentoGif.
Took a little while to suss it out, but here's my first ever gif:

I used GifCam as it is an easier to app to start with. Great program too!

Really?! :jawdrop
Well, if you say so, it's all good. I was under the impression that the value of [mPath] was always #SKINSPATH# (and subsequently, the empty string after the Substitute), since it's not a child of a FileView parent set to the current folder, but a parent itself set to a fixed folder.

I typically use an online site for this, after screen recording:

But yeah, it depends on preferences, there are many choices. ;-)

Me too. Just didn't want to add another app to the installed ones just for this thing (although, now that I think of it, I already have some that can do the conversion).
