Need Help Making An Animation
Hi everyone. I have three GIF files that I want to make into an animation. I want them to alternate the images so that each image shows once and then the other and then the other and it keeps rotating/alternating the images. If anyone knows how I can do this with some free software, I'd greatly appreciate your help. Or, if anyone wants to just take the three attatched images and make an animation out of them for me, I'd also appreciate that. I must mention though that the size of the images needs to remain the same. They can be no larger than 120 by 120. This is because I am going to use them as an avatar for a website that I visit and the size has to be smaller than 120 by 120. So any help that anyone can give me will be greatly appreciated.

Yes, that is precisely what I want but could you make it pause between pictures a little longer?

Okay I hate to be picky but the flag needs to wave a little longer than that and also, the bottom part of the Dove and flames picture is cut off. Can you fix those two things?

Okay can you make the flag wave one more time? Also, the bottom of the fireballs in the dove picture is gone.

It means missing. The bottom part of the dove picture is missing. Anyway, just go ahead and remove the dove picture. The quality of that picture isn't all that great and the avatar will look great with only the Jerusalem Cross and Vatican Flag pictures.
