not excatly clear on if they'll help or not?

I doubt it. It's unlikely that if you save in .bmp format that you'll retain the animation. Animation is not something that a bmp normally does, so when you save a gif as a bmp it'll probably flatten the image. Once you convert it back, the stack of frames will probably be lost. The only animated bmp files that I've ever seen are the startup and shutdown screens for Windows 98 - 95 and maybe 2000.

If this is something you can do, you could try sending me one of the emails with the image and I'll see if I can extract the image.

pm me if you want.
