How to make a seamless loop on GIF

[Connor99z]

I have a GIF I made on after effects, but it doesn't loop well and you can see where it cuts to then replay again, is there any way I can make it so this is seamless so you can barely tell it's cutting? Need the GIF to be below 10Mb aswell.

I'm guessing that you would need to use Pattern Preview and Offset.

Another way would be to mirror thje graphic vertically.  

Testing with this graphic

If I check it with View > Pattern Preview

It actually doesn't look too bad vertically

Flipping it looks better though

I think Jesus Rameriz did a Pattern Preview video recently

Yep. Here you go

Arfe you OK making the frame animation from there?

Thanks for this, I'll have to give it a go later.. not really got any experience with after affects, I had to watch a video in order to get those snowflakes and to make them into an animation on that gif up top, so nothing is of my own skill really

I don't actually have photoshop, just the adobe after effects which I used to make the gif

You posted in the Photoshop forum but have now confirmed you are using After Effects. I've moved your post to the after effects forum.

To make the background seamless either construct it so that all elements start and end at the same point or, consider repeating each element and fading it in and out, so that as one fades out another fades in. It will take the eye away from a sudden jump.

To make your GIF loop seamlessly, ensure the first and last frames match or use a fade transition. You can also adjust the frame rate, optimize the GIF with tools like Photoshop or EZGIF, and reduce resolution or simplify the animation to stay under 10MB.
