Hey photoshop gurus, I have a couple .gifs I want to shrink down to use as avatars (not sure which one to go with). What would be the best way to both crop and shrink the .gifs below to 100X100 pixels while retaining image quality? My .gif skills (and my photoshop skills in general) are minimal. Any help would be awesome. Thanks.
The .gifs:  
Edit: I'll go with the first one, but the second one will be good practice

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Oct 2008 Location: Toronto, Ontario, Canada | | | So how did you do that? When I opened it in photoshop it said "this is an animated .gif. You can only view one frame. Saving over it will result in a loss of data"
I am computer illiterate.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jul 2003 Location: NET | | excane's right. Photoshop is far from optimal for a job like this, although the older version with ImageReady could handle it. Better use a simple, dedicated .gif animator like the (free) Beneton Movie GIF.
100x100 version (cropped): 
EDIT 1: Sorry it turned out too large, didn't know about the Kb limit
EDIT 2: Now optimized for size (~20K)

100x100 version (cropped): | Woah! Beauty! Too bad the filesize is too big 
I'm gonna look into that program though.
