a. Avoiding Harddrive Clutter
b. Considering screen capture region
c. Frames mismatched in size
a. While choosing the quality in keeping a small file, there is also consideration of how much do you need to frame into a shot. Capturing at full screen to resize it later is using alot of resources while capturing frame by frame and places unnecessary storage space on your harddrive. (Given that most harddrives are incredibly larger today, but it can add to clutter later when removing images.)
b. Opening a video file image in playback as you screen capture it only needs to be only so large. I recommend screen capture of an area around 300x300. Also keep in mind, just because you capture everything in a gif does not make it viewable. Your working within a small window frame which viewing area is about 150x150. The gifs here are actually playing back the focal point of interest within a scene.
c. If you have frames that are larger or smaller than each other and want to combine them into a Gif the Photoscape Anigif program can re-size them uniform-ally. Remember, if the width and height are not equal you will end up with images with borders.

MMORPG
Two ways to screencapture an MMO taping of your character. One, is you do it from in game as it is running. All the Aion characters in this site were done that way. Depending how clean one wants the animation you can remove the repeated frames or leave them. If file size is a concern and frame crispness is a personal preference then removing repeating frames will be necessary. If not concerned about quality and just want to make one or just to make a quick one for fun this will be fine to do.
Second way in getting your MMO character is by using a game capture program like Fraps or some similar screenshot program. Then, while during play back one can set up the region to capture with greenshot.

FAMILY GIF
Greenshot can be used to capture family moments like a child blowing out their birthday candles. Play your family video and let greenshot screen capture the moment to turn those frames into a gif.
