Whenever I animate image using GIMP animator (or save it as .gif) the image quality distorts. Blended parts of images in animation mostly gets distort or cut. How should I make settings which gives the same quality in animation as that in the original frame/layer?

Are you using Simple Animations or Advanced Animations (GAP)?
Have a quick look at Card Opening Animation tutorial by ccbarr, it includes useful scripts (at step #33) and excellent information on animation. If you like animation check all ccbarr tutorials.

Thank You very much for wonderful tutorials.
May be I use simple animator which comes with the software. I've added the animation output files. Could you please tell where I could find Advanced animators with optimizer. I've GIF optimizer GIMP script. I found it somewhere. I've not applied it on output files.

GIF is color-indexed, and color-indexed means binary (instead of progressive) opacity for all layers and the final image, so depending on where the color-indexation happens in your workflow, results can go from slightly disappointing to rather unsightly.

Thank you very much Ofnuts for replying I wish, as an script coder, you would be making a script that runs GIF Animator (progressive).
There could be high quality in animation output of GIMP.
(Recently, "Easy GIF Animator - animated GIF image editor for Windows" has higher output quality than GIMP. I want GIMP to be on top. )
As we see blended .png/.jpg, we would be able to see in animation. After inclusion of 7 sec video on Facebook profile (or animated GIF avatars in future), I wish to use this New script, GIF - progressive.
It will be a huge boost in animation
