Hi, I made a Gif that is moving text, I opened the file in PhotoShop and planned on putting it in a banner I made for a signature, but It won't let me copy and paste the Gif into the picture. I've tried holding alt, shift etc. So how am I supposed to get the .Gif onto the picture?
Thanks,
-JTM

You will need to open the Gif in Image Ready.
Photoshop won't allow you to view the gif each frame as in Image Ready.
Try using IR then switch to Photoshop if need be.

Hi,
Thanks for the response, it seemed to work, I got it in IR put it on the .psd image and what should I save it as? .GIF? etc. Should I also do a normal save or a optimized as save>?
Thanks,
JTM

I would save it twice.
Once as an optimized gif
and the other as a psd document.
(PSD- incase you need to change anything.)

Yeah, that is the smart thing to do, and for any more of your projects do something like that.
