Okay, I'm feeling really lazy so i'm going to just ask instead of looking it up. (But i'll probably end up doing it later anyway) Why does the animation loose the detail? What setting did I mess up? No stress....
LH: You didn't mess anything up. To have it animated you have to save it as a .gif, rather than a .jpg, .bmp or .png. Gif files can only have so many colors in them, and so in the process of converting it to a .gif, the program has to reduce the number of colors, hence the change in the image.
