Not sure about GIMP, but you don't do that in PS unless you are saving it as anything other than an animation.

If you merge the layers it's a photo.

Correct - it also depends on the dithering amount. A lot of people, to optimize for web, tend to shrink the resolution to keep the size to a minimum.

Unoptimize the gif, edit, merge your layers, then reoptimize.

When I merged the layers it is just a still picture.

Awesome

HTOWNHORN yeah you were right. I thought it might make a difference after un-optimization. I gotta do a little more reading. I havent been able to seperate, edit and add to single layers. For example the cat in the cereal box, i cant add "IN" to the needed frames.

That's how's I added text to a gif in gimp when I used it 
merging down the text layer to the image layer
I use cs5 now though so its been a while may I don't remember correctly

Cat instead of merging i have to anchor the selection.
