imageready tips and warnings
# You can draw directly in ImageReady, which has nearly identical tools.

# Preview your animation by pressing play on the Animation palette.

# Add more unique frames for a richer animation
.
# Click on the time values at the bottom of each frame to adjust how long it will remain visible.

if u think that u are more advanced in doing all those
add special effects like shadow
blur
apply filters etc..
remember
each frame has its own importance

make sure the req time is constant

once a gif image is generated or created
save the image location

for embedding it inside
use





< img src = your image .png >
I hope u understood by that

now save it the whole pic link inside a gm script
for greasemonkey search google
for the userscript
ask praful bhai... aka heart hunter
