What's the best way to create a gif? Drawing or paint module.

Are you certain it's possible to do it directly with either?

I see two problems:
Neither module offers GIF as a Save as... option.
When saving graphics files, AppleWorks works on a Full Page model.

You can create your image in either Draw or Paint, then Copy the object/image, launch Preview, then go File > New From Clipboard.

Do a Save as on the result, and chose GIF as the format for the image.

Whether starting with AW's Draw or Paint depends on the image itself. Try it both ways and see which works best.
