You will be sadly disappointed by the results.

A GIF image can have no more than 256 colors maximum. If you have many 
different photographs in a GIF, even an animated GIF, they must share 
that same palette of 256 total colors. You'll go through a lot of work, 
then likely be horrified by the results.
