GIF Animation
Fireworks
GIMP

A good GIF animator doesn't usually just work on GIFs.

photoshop is relatively easy. I can't think of any others off the top of my head, sorry.
i really like the gimp... or jasc paint shop pro animation shop...
paint shop animator is the easier of the good ones i think, u should try it, or try downloading an open source one
I prefer Firworks for my gifs
you could also go for swf to gif converters..
try to create a simple file in flash or swish then convert it into gif

It's actaully better to use Studio 8's fireworks to make GIFs since Flash isn't exactly the best in orginazation of layers when making scenes(well at least in my mind. Flash Pro 8 really confuses me a lot, which is why I stick with making YTMNDs rather than flash animations).
(In my mind)
I like Adode Image Ready...
Dead easy to layer + to add other images 2 when you've made mistakes and varying speeds for each layer..

flash is the easiest for me. you can just make your animation in the root timeline and publish it as gif and voila! you have your spicy gif!
yeah. I agree but flash ris cost way over £200 and the copies @school are crap cos they haven't registered them yet.
Otherwise its god, but if u haven't got the money, i think Xara Xs is ok
