Howdy. I read that I could make animated gifs with flash. So I made a little movie and tried doing as the people on the forum I found said; exporting instead of saving. Only it always comes out as single image non moving. So apparently i’m doing it wrong. I tried both export image and movie and niether work.  
I uploaded a flash mx file that I tried to turn into a gif (somethign simple) of a smiley 😑 blinking. I have been unable to do as they said was possible so far and was wondering if anyone here could help me out.
