If I read this right you are trying to preserve an image with a animated effect, linking three such images together in Image Ready. Hard ask. Image ready is not the best program for animated gifs, ulead or easy gif animator are more flexable when it comes to effects and large file sizes.
If you only have imageready to use try to flatten layers and keep your colors to web colors. (This reduces the amount of color but keeps the image uniform). Try to use as many images as possible with small movements, each image should become a seperate frame.

This should help to preserve quality and keep the file size reasonable. If you want to do some kick ass animated stuff start askin splodge about flash, he's got that program sorted. If you want to stay in the animated gif stuff get Ulead gif animator, its not the easiset to use but for keeping image quality and reasonable files size for contest enteries its not to bad. Quite cheap if you buy on line.

Hope that helped.
Very Happy

hi sorry every1 let me try and explain better Embarassed
if im in image ready and i have three jpeg images on there own seperate layer and i was to add them to
the time line and add a tween to them so they fade into one another giving a slide show effect so i can then use it on my web site as part of an intro then the only way this will work is if i convert the images to gifs in order for them to annimate ( fade into one another) which then makes the images look of poor quality btw these images are photographs so i would like to keep them looking nice as possible but at the mo i can only manage to get them to look semi decent. Is image ready better used for small images rather than larger ones that have to look nice?
thanx every1 Wink

You can use 'Tweening' in Fireworks since its a Macromedia invention. You also might want to try Jasc's Animation Shop which is pretty good for animating stuff with special effects.
