High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.
Tried that, didn't quite compress it enough.[DOUBLEPOST=1502038220][/DOUBLEPOST]
That should be okay, as long as the speed of the gif is not effected and just the frames.
If you had a graphic designer make it for you, they normally give you a 250kb 500kb, 750kb and max version of the gif banner.
Otherwise, use a compression website like ezgif or try photoshop.

You can mess about with gif palettes to significantly compress gifs while still maintaining visual quality.
One of the tools that you can use for this is called palettemagic that uses FFmpeg to generate frame palettes.
There's an excellent article about maintaining quality when converting to the gif format.
The script I've used in the past (IIRC I got about a 7:1 ratio when comparing AE gif export to the one put through palettemagic) is available down below.
A lot of this is trial and error though, so feel free to experiment with FFmpeg options.
