Help me out. Why are some frames more transparent than others in .gif files. How do I get around this the easiest way? I usually copy the background that I want to cover it up to avoid anythign coming threw. I also copy my sig for every frame. I tried something different this time and it didn't work out.

Also is there anything i need to know about the "()" after the timing in each frame title. what does (combine) mean exatcly and is there any other words that go in there that can be useful?


Heres the one that I tried to do differntly than past gifs.

I'm not sure why this is happening. May have something to do with the quality of the source video

I noticed a long time ago that my .gif's made with GIMP were not as crisp as those who use photoshop. They colors tended to bleed together sometimes giving the gifts a cartoonish look. I don't know if it will solve this problem but it does make for a much better looking .gif. go to IMAGE>MODE>INDEX>floyd-steinberg( reduce color bleeding) listed under "color dithering". This keeps me from loosing picture quality of my .gif. If you like this "dithering" move thank Rattlehead, he turned me on to it!
