Unlike JPG and PNG images, you cannot resize an animated GIF image using a basic photo editor. If you have the latest Adobe Creative Suite or a similar software package, then it would be easier.

Since a GIF animation is basically composed of multiple frames, you have to consider each frame as a separate image. If you don’t have a software or image editor that can resize an animated GIF without losing its animation, then you can look for an alternative online.
