at some point in the menus for saving it as a .gif you have to select "replace" instead of whatever it currently is
also what is this
what are you doing
I'm going to change my avatar pretty soon probably so if that's important you may want to put this off

yeah I'm sorta lost
I don't really know how to describe the entire process, nor do I really know where you are in it
maybe place the burden on someone else or something? unless somebody comes in and explains it

I'm not gonna change it very soon though. I was thinking a day or two from now

all i know is i started on the first frame, pasted the image onto the first frame, went to the next frame, and that stuff was there.

maybe pm me the images and I'll edit it into a .gif?
I would say not to because I don't want to spoil it for me, but since you're probably making fun of me and I wouldn't find it funny anyway, I guess it doesn't matter

through a long and grueling process i made all the frames into seperate images and edited them all
is there a way to turn all of these frames back into a gif

Night Fox · October 13, 2013, 12:24:21 AM

open each image as a layer in another image, and once you're done, you have to use "export" in the file drop-down menu to save it as a .gif
most default settings should be fine, but remember to make sure the "save as animation" or whatever box is checked, and the "replace" option is selected as I mentioned earlier
