[sewerz1000]

im not requesting ne thing so just calm down. I was trying do that blinkie tutorial, but things dont work out. When i do stuff with text, picture itself highlights, and when i save as compuservre.gif, it lik does it, but a box doesnt pop up. when i get out of it, the letter that i typed in, its all lik wavy and stuff and i cant continue the string like ure supposed to be able to do... ask me for screenshots if u need me to be more specific,

edit~ wat nvm, that happens when u open an image lik that thats already gif.. ehe
