These kinds of animated images can be a super powerful addition to any how-to or tutorial articles that you write because they provide a really fast and simple way to show your steps without creating a full video. I’ve gotta say that I was more than a little impressed with the software and how easy it was to use. (It only took me 15 minutes from my first Google search for LICEcap until I had my first image completed.) I’m sure this is going to quickly become one of my favorite new tools. I soon noticed that a few other commenters were also curious about this feature, so I decided to try out the software and create this little demo to show how easy it is to create GIF screenshots. Nate later revealed to me in the comments on that he made these GIFs of his screen movements using a Free, open-source software called LICEcap. Aside from the awesome ideas that he was sharing, I was also really impressed by his use of animated GIF images that showed exactly what he was doing on his screen (here’s an example). Yesterday, I read a great article by Nate Desmond on where he showed some pretty ninja tricks for analyzing website data using Import.io and Excel.
