Resizing animated GIF with GIFDecoder.class.php will cause transparency problems

I need to resize animated GIF in PHP without ImageMagick. I am using the latest GIFDecoder and GIFEncoder classes from PHPclasses. When I extract each frame from the GIF, I get blotches of transparent areas on all the frames but the first one, even though the GIF is not transparent at all. Even putting them back together does not work. I have tried other files but still have the same problem.

I would recomment using ImageMagick. It's way faster and more powerfull than any custom coded PHP class.

Please take a look at this thread. The top answer even offers an alternative solution, if you have no access to ImageMagick on your server.
