once you have all frames in imageready create a new layer at the top of the others,
so it's at the top of the layers panel
then create a new imageready file; 1 px wide 2 px deep, transparent background,
fill in the top px black then click
edit: define pattern
then, back on the main animation on the new blank layer (which should be transparent)
click edit - fill - pattern, and don't click preserve transparency.
It 'should' then put the scanlines over all the frames for you
and there you are.
--------------------------------------------
create a new layer it tatty shop
select a dark colour from your image
draw a 1 pixel horizontal line on your new layer
duplicate that layer
move it down 2 pixels
merge layers
duplicate layer
move new one down 4 pixels
merge layers
duplicate, move, merge, duplicatemovemerge
until you have a single layer where every other line is a scan line
--------------------------------------------
Because they tend to make everything seem pretty dark, I often put an adjustment layer underneath the scanline layer to up the brightness/contrast of all the layers beneath (in the layer menu of tattyslop)
forward-scrolly images:
Ctrl T to transform mode
Hold Ctrl to move vanishing point
Scale image holding Shift and Alt
Press enter to apply transform
Keep pressing CtrlShiftAlt +T to create lots of duplicated frames with scaled in the same way as previous frame
Edit: Yes, i've just realised none of us use image ready any more, this was from a long time ago

and I guess it effectively optimizes the GIF a bit too. Also looks like imageready is a lot more intelligent when it comes to doing things like that.
Anyway, I'm off to bed. It's been a surreal day on b3ta, but I think we've weathered it fairly well! Goodnight everyone.
