Here is another animated gif related problem. When this gif is imported it gets messed up.

I take it your taking from from http://mcleodgaming.com/ssf2sprites/
I had the same problem with the Link final smash. The scratch team said the file was too big, which is understanadble with the final smash coz it's probably 100 costumes or something, however those seem quite small so it may be something else.

Whoa! The "sonic sideair" one gets really messed up if you import it. It looks like those TVs when the static comes! Right, archmage?

Whoa, you're right.
I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.

Yes, this is because, if you notice, each sequential costume has the new one, AND all the previous ones behind it. This isn't a problem if they are the same shape, but if they aren't, it gets messed up. there is no "fix" to this, it is just a bug in scratch.

Ummm no. They fixed that bug in the new version of scratch. This is a different problem.

I can import it into flash and fix it but I shouldn't have to. Its just some gifs that seem to have problems.
