What free OS X software is out there to make animated .gifs?

Also, is there any software out there that let's you resize animated .gifs without having to manipulate the individual frames?

Stone Design's download page is quite irritating. This is the direct link, but it is not there.

Stone Design's iDisk appears to be the only place with valid download links, these days.

You also might want to try good old GifBuilder — a Mac stalwart since 1996!

GifBuilder doesn't seem to like my JPEGs, so I can't build the GIF. Pixen allows me to make it, but I can't get Pixen to save my GIF animation unless I use their Pixen format.

GIFfun works though.
