Top 100 Anime Movies Of All Time (from http://imgur.com/a/k2vwE)
  1. Colorful (2010) [T]

    Probably not the title that most people expected to see in the #1 slot. I urge everyone to give it a shot though. No other film has ever brought me through a greater spectrum of emotions.

Screencapture and animated gifs

I say "animated gif" but in reality I think it's irresponsible to be serving "real" GIF files to people now. You should be serving gfy's, gifv's, webm, mp4s, whatever. They're a fraction of the filesize making it easier for you to deliver high fidelity, full color animation very quickly, especially on bad mobile connections. (But I suppose if you're just doing this for small audiences (like bug reporting), then LICEcap is a good solution).

Capturing (Easy)

  1. Launch quicktime player
  2. do Screen recording
