I meant creating an animated gif from multiple layers
but Gimp will split video files (and small clips from a larger video file) into multiple images and you can then convert them to an animated gif
Open "new"
Click "video"
click "split video into frames"

Gimp will also do screen captures
so if you only want to grab a few frames from a video
play the video in any player and freeze it on the desired frame
click "file"
click "acquire"
click "screenshot"...etc
step player to next frame and grab again
