I've used both ways but your a picking the lesser of two evils because they are both time consuming. There may be an easier way to do it, if so I hope someone post is here.

This is why i was asking about the parentheses after the image name and frame length of time. I was hoping there were a few tricks in there. I've always just had to duplicate and merge visible layers. I know the guy I share my office w/ hates it when I have to uncheck 80 layers so I can start merging them one at a time.


Thanks for the tips . Gimp does do some bad stuff w/ gif files (like not letting me smudge), but I assumed it was something that gif files did to minimize the file size. It could be either one. Right now, with gimp, if I want it to look good in the end, I have to make my own background from a few other frames duplicated and merged together. Just extra steps I wish I could skip.
