*Same size as the first image frame (checked) - Next...*Transparent (Checked) - Next...*Centered in the frame, with the canvas color (Checked) - Next...Yes, repeat the animation indefinetely - 30 (Checked) - Next.

Add image - browse to the folder you've saved the images. Put the image 3 first, then 2, then 1. Click next - Finish.

Click on View Animation . If you like the way it looks, Go to File - "Save As". Save your work as .gif. Just click next - next - next - hit finish and you're done.

This is the final result: Isn't that simple :)
