# I don't understand why you can't
use photoshop like everybody else. You just need an old copy of Ulead gif animator if you really can't figure out how to get gifs as layers into tattyshop.
Don't buy anything yet. I'll gaz you with info when I've found some software and seriously don't buy fireworks without using the 30 day trial because you may not like it at all, not one bit. It's nothing like an adobe product.

# I'm really glad Adobe didn't fuck with it.
I've been using it for quite a long time now and don't really want to have to learn tattyshop's versions of everything.

# I see your point on that (i use both extensively)
I just wish they'd have a stab at making it fatser. My mac is a beast and it struggles with fireworks. Click and resize ends up in spinny rainbow pizza so often, but photoshop and indesign etc are smooth as butter :S

# Importing gifs is my problem mate
I simply can't do it, in the old days I used to open a gif in Image ready and save as a .psd file and then move over to Photoshop; it's simply not possible any more. But cheers

# CS3 and 4 windows versions
allow you to import gif and video as layers. It's easy. Somehow it's not a supported feature for mac.

# but there are plenty
of gif programs will allow you to export a gif as layers. You just then open the layers on tattyshop.

Anyway. I'm on it.
