You may have read too much Terry Pratchett¹...

... if you get spam with the subject line "Organize him present" and your first thought is "Yeah, but Mr. Shine?  He diamond."²

[1]  Of course, really we all know there is no such thing as too much Terry Pratchett.³

[2]  When I mentioned it, cymrullewes' response was "Isn't he an Omnian missionary?"

[3]  This footnote is just here for reasons of tradition.

The Gimp is my friend. :)

I'll have to see what I can do with it on Linux, then. My version of Photoshop won't do the blinkie stuff.

I should, I suppose, upgrade. Wish Adobe made it in a Linux config.

It's pretty easy in the Gimp. Create transparent layers over your background, add to them as you need, assemble composite frames, have Gimp optimize them, set frame delays if needed, convert to indexed color, save as GIF.

Thanks. Sounds as if it has similar functionality to Photoshop.
