So I use PS and I created a Gif and it looks fine in preview ect...

But when I upload it to something like Giphy.com it looks like... well... ass.

The resolution of the image is all jacked, where the preview is crisp and looks like it should the outcome looks like someone blew the res. up...

Am I setting something wrong, or what?

Using Export > Save for Web (Legacy)

File size is a whopping 18KB so it should not be scaled via JSP

Without more informations i cannot tell whats wrong.

Gif can only 256 colors

could you post some of the frames and the result?

Either send your psd via https://uploadfiles.io/

or upload it elsewhere ( imgur, postimage, ... )

https://ufile.io/8z0p6

If I take the same images and put them on a black background the gif comes out perfectly.

IE:



Vs

looks like problems with define what shall be transparent

this remembers me to bad cut out a part of a picture

look in ps for changing the color of the canvas
turn it into #FF00FF
then do it transparent again
maybe it helps

It's the common issue while working with a borderless picture & gif format

An easy workaround no day is to go for apng format if Kb is not involved - https://ezgif.com/apng-maker
Export your all your frames as png, then re-built your animation

/E: didn't have the same font as you ...
