How do you import a GIF into Scratch?

I know that you can import the movie in frame by frame but is there a way to import the entire GIF into the program as is. If there isn't is there a way to change the source code to allow it.

You can do it without any problem. You take the animated gif, then in scratch in cosyume section you click import and you import the gif you want. It splits into many sprites.

It doesn't work with every gif, if the gif has been merged then you have to break it down to seperate frames and import them from there, i use Animation Shop by Jasc.

Drag the GIF into the costumes area. It will split up.  smile

Yeah. It has to be imported as costume not sprite.
