Convert ANI to GIF

Export of animated cursors (.ani) to a GIF image (.gif) is definitely possible, but only one frame from the animation will be saved as a static GIF. Imagine an .ani file as a series of pictures (frames) that are saved together to create the animated feel. So from a single .ani file, you could in theory export several images and save them as .gif files, or any other similar graphics. Or, you could saved it as animated GIF in programs that allow it.
