Did you make sure that this box was checked,
while exporting your image as animated gif?

I don't get this option when i try to export it

Are you sure that you're exporting your image,
with the file extension of .gif and not any other file extension?

[LazyNinjas]

That doesn't seem right.
What version of Gimp are you using?

Can you post your image as an .xcf file?

You should have the Export as option.
Is this a portable version and where did you get it from?

[LazyNinjas]

I just updated to the newest version. see if i have any luck

[LazyNinjas]
