It sounds like you're getting some of the same problems I've had. With Gimp-gifs, each layer is a frame. The white frames are probably white full-screen layers. What I do is just take a picture of the frame that I want (front, middle, and back in the correct positions) by pressing Ctrl+Shift+V.

You could make your path a selection and then fill that selection. There's a button at the bottom of the Paths tab that looks like a dotted-line square--that's Path to Selection. Click that, then fill. Should be fine. Good luck! On Mon, Jul 29, 2013 at 4:56 AM, Uniklaps uni.kl...@t-online.de
