Where to find Animated GIFs for Lotus Notes that meet the file size requirements

Something fun my co-workers do is send fun animated gifs in chat (sametime) /email (lotus notes). But not only can I not find where they are finding all these funny gifs, but I also seem to only find huge ones that are too large to post.
Where can I find all these awesome gifs? How do I change the file size? Is there some sort of freeware I can download to be able to resize or change the file size?

I have attached the error I receive when I try to send a gif I found.

just go to images.google.com and search for gif (or animated gif)
on the left hand navigation you can specify the size of the images

you can also just do a normal google for animated gif or animation

ASKER

thats all ive been doing. the gifs are too large in addition there is a VERY limited selection of gifs. the question is where can i find them and how can i resize them. Google images although is a place to find them, is not at all effective. Search terms need to be very specific to pull anything valuable up.
