CamGif: Great small free tool to create gifs

Update: I recommend now ScreenToGif.

I recommend CamGif to create animated images aka Gif files on Windows.

It is free, very light (700kB), portable (it is only one exe file), maintained (last update as of now Nov 2020 was in Oct. 2019), which creates small size output file and provide also edit capabilities.

Give it a try: http://blog.bahraniapps.com/gifcam/ 

I will use it specially to make my twitter posts more catchy.

It is hard to find out the guy/girl (Isa?) behind the app so I couldn't thank personally on twitter.
