So I created a GIF Comic and my excruciating long "blurring" process while coloring, to make the colors blend better, pretty much came out undone (not by too much though!). However, I have two files of now of the same GIF comic. One is with quite a lot of pixels, and blur intact. And another is with no pixels, yet the blur isn't as intact. Which do you think would be better in this situation?

What exactly do you mean by having a lot of / no pixels? Are you referring to noise (graininess) that happens when you save in GIF format? Did the resolution change?
If you have one that doesn't have noise, you could always try re-doing the blur and seeing if that makes a difference. Also, which program are you using? From my experience, in programs like Paint, if you save the blank file as a GIF before you start coloring, it won't be as lossy. Others (like Photoshop) let you determine what kind of settings you go out with--whether to have noise at all, for example.
But I like to avoid the hassle of noise and blurring and just save as PNG when it's available (or JPG because it's better than nothing).

It was an animated comic so I couldn't really save it in JPG. ^^;; I ended up going with what my partner liked better. x); Thank you so much for answering, and again, I apologize for making so many threads with all these questions.
