I am guessing the first frame is completely black, so it just comes out transparent.

If you want the animation, you need to rip all the frames from the .gif and use something like zignotzags shiptiler to recompose all the frames into one image (preferably .png, or maybe 1bpp bitmap).

All you need to do is take your animated gif; and layer them into animation "cells"; not that complicated...

after you split your gif into frame000.gif frame001.gif ect. you can use that program to recombine them into a format subspace can understand.

jar is a java executable...
You need the java runtime environment (JRE) to run it.

Maybe this app will help you to find the right settings.
Actually, I released it here because this thread reminded me of it.

don't get confused with all the mumbo jumbo.... if you want "animation of 60 frames to animate once within 15 secs" then in the ini file for the lvz when it asks for the animation period put in 1500 instead of 350
