In Paint Shop Pro I made a 5 layered image numbered 1 thru 5.

In Animation shop, I duplicated each frame once. to slow it down.

To slow it down even more I made 3 duplicates of each number.

To add all three of these animations to the same image, each one must have the same number of frames.

Here is what each of the images looked like before I added them to the finished animation.

For the first image, I selected all, copy. Select the last frame, Paste > After Current frame.

Repeat 2 more time for a total of 20 frames.

For the second image, I selected all, copy. Select the last frame, Paste > After Current frame.

For a total of 20 frames.

OK lets apply this to a different animation.

Here is the butterfly that we'll start with. Notice that it has NINE frames.

For the first image, Select all, copy, select last image, paste > After current frame.

Repeat 2 more times for a total of 36 frames.

For the second image, duplicate each frame once. Select all, copy, select last frame, paste > After

Current frame for a total of 36.

For the last image, duplicate each frame 3 times for a total of 4 "first" frames for a total of 36 frames.

Now that each image has the same number of frames, they can successfully

be added to the same animation.

For the image below I made 2 duplicates of each frame for a total of 3 "first images.

This could not be added to the image above because this animation has only 27 frames
