what the hell? What program did you use to do this? If you're having trouble putting gifs together because you have to adjust the color index, then I recommend using Jasc instead. Even GIMP can do a better job than this.
Don't mess with the color index in GIMP. Just optimize it, and then save it as a gif, let GIMP do the indexing by itself.
If you're trying to get the gif smaller than 4 megs, do this:
Multiply width X height X number of frames. If the result is above 7.5 million, then it may be larger than 4 megs. If it's about 7. 5 million or less, then gif it.
