To do what you want you have to add the text (on the very same spot) to all the layers/frames of the animation. There are scripts and plugins to do this, For instance my own interleave-layers script used in "title" mode: http://gimp-tools.sourceforge.net/animationtools.shtml My thanks to everyone who sent possible answers to my question. I tried to implement them as I was reading the Gimp User Manual. I am not a skilled user. I am learning as I go. I had no idea that Python is a way of writing scripts for Gimp. I do not know where to find my Gimp profile. I am not kidding. The user manual does not mention it.

I am looking for a way to add a layer to a gif image upon which I can add text, a layer that is transparent and will not move or flash, like writing on a window behind which there is action. My thanks to everyone who sent possible answers to my question. I tried to implement them as I was reading the Gimp User Manual. I am not a skilled user. I am learning as I go. I had no idea that Python is a way of writing scripts for Gimp. I do not know where to find my Gimp profile. I am not kidding. The user manual does not mention it. I am most appreciative of any help that you can offer. I am a personal user, helping my roomie to improve her blog.
