http://www.gifworks.com It's free, easy and "meh" But it works for what you want to do. Also, you can add text and stuffs (and effects)

Those are pretty good for what you are using, good job man.
If you want photo editing on the cheap I again suggest the GIMP. They actually have their own website seperate from their sourceforge download page at http://www.gimp.org/ it's worth a look. If you don't like it you don't have to get it(it's free by the way), I don't mean to force you into anything but you have some talent that you could probably expand just playing around in GIMP.

I simply use Adobe Photshop Elements. I'm an avatar / signature whore ( although I'm quite the newb still ) - I make all my own by the way. I love making avatars so much! ^_^- I'm currently whoring a lot of VG cat avatars as we speak. Yay! As far as resizing, I simply use Photoshop to make my gifs/pics smaller. o.o
