GifCam makes it easy to create animated GIF images by simply recording the activity from a selected portion of your screen. Simply move and size the recording frame over the area you want to capture and press a button to start recording. The program will automatically optimize the recorded frames by replacing redundant pixels with a green screen, which can significantly reduce the size of the final animation.

Once you're done recording, you can edit the animation by removing unwanted frames, adding text overlays and adjust frame delays. Other features include support for cursor capture, FPS recording options, grayscale conversion, GIF preview, and more.
