ok this is a long one. so pay attention :)
-First go to Ani Shop and open up your animation/gif
-Note the size the frames. Say it's 100x100.
-Open a New animation and make it the same size as your .gif
-Click on the Shape tool. The settings should be:
Shape: Rectange Style: Outlined Outline Width:5 Antialias: checked
-Now Draw a box around your new animation (the blank one that u opened) It should now look like ther is an outline around it.
-Click copy and "paste after current" (Make as many copies as your other gif has frames. So if your other animation has 5 frames make 5 copies of the border).
-Now you have the border and u want to put it around the animation. Soooooo....hold down the Ctrl key and click on ALL the frames in your border animation.
-Click copy and go to your gif Animation (that u want the border around)
-Press and hold the Ctrl key and the 'A' key (all your frames should be selected).
-Now click "Paste into selected Frame".
-U can click where ever you want you border to go. And all the frames should now have a border around them.
Phew! Half way there!!
-Now open the big background image that you want.
-Make as many copies of it as there are frames in your animated gif.
-Now go to your bordered animated gif and select ALL the frames (like above) and click Copy.
-Go to your bkground image and selected them ALL as well.
-Click "Paste into Selected Frame" and position the animation where you want it on your bkground image.
-Click Save and save the image as a .GIF file.
There you are now done! Hopefully you're not too confused! If you have any questions pm me.
