This is what I did to test my answer before I sent it: Open the Gimp. Create a new image (File->New), accepting defaults. Right-click in image, select File->SaveAs. Note that GIF is greyed out. Cancel. Right-click in image, select Image->Mode->Indexed, accept defaults, OK. Right-click in image, select File->SaveAs. Click on "Determine File Type" button, select GIF, save file accepting defaults. Worked fine. If it doesn't work for you, I have no idea what the problem is :-( > Im concerned because in my determine file type, the part I can see !

What version of the GIMP are you using? I dimly recall that GIF isn't wasn't in all of them because of the Unisys idiocy a few years back... but I could be completely mistaken on that. If you built it yourself, it may be a missed compile-time option too, I guess.
