Can anyone recommend an easy to use program that can make animated gifs?

I want to make animated icons for use in forums that allow them. The size of the gif (icon) would be 100 pixels x 100 pixels.

I know it can be done with Photoshop and Imageready but I do not really understand how to do it that way. Can it be done with Elements?

Is there a simple shareware/freeware program that can do this? I know there are PC applications that do this and would assume there are some for the mac.

I have tried GIFfun (that I found on versiontracker) but the final result is really pixelated. The image resolution I am using is 72 pixels/inch.
Should the image resolution be higher?

Also, is there a way to take a clip from an anime (for example) and use it for the icon?

Thank you for the help.
