Of course! And thank you!!

Hi! I went nature themed, I hope you like it!

Hi! So I thought I would make a tutorial on how I personally make my animated stamps in GIMP! With images to help!

Firstly, have your stamp base, I use old stamp templates I found or from my own stamps. Then you want to add your gif as a layer.

Once you've opened it as a layer, all the gif layers will appear! You want to first resize the background layer by scaling the layer.

This stamp has an interior width and height of 95x50 pixels, so I make sure to scale the layer to fit. Make sure width and height aren't linked because not all gifs will fit that size naturally.

Then it is very important to merge the background layer with the stamp template layer, this way when you make the gif it looks like a stamp!

Once that's done scale all your other layers to the same width and height so that they too will fit in the stamp! Then what you want to do once that is finished is to open filter > animation > optimise (for gif).

Then once you've done that you can click playback to see if the gif is all right!

Once that's done it is time to export it by going export as, now I always have to change my file to a .gif type in order for it to work. Once you've done that hit export.

Then it will show a pop up window, it is very important you hit check on animation! Otherwise it won't work!

Once that is done, you can now hit the final export and your gif stamp will be made! See my final product below!
