Work with your graphic as RGB, then index it when you're done so it can be saved as a GIF. You need to tell Gimp it's an animation by naming each layer as: frame 1(500ms), frame 2(1000ms), etc. This is where you set the length of time that each frame is displayed during the animation. Experiment a bit to get the effect you want. Hope this helps, Teri Ward Technical Writer/Web Designer Seattle

Re: Animations
It says in the gimp manual. In the layers dialogue, save the layer name as foo(200ms) and layer foo will display for 200 miliseconds. Rather simple really.
