This midterm was a bit confusing to understand at first but I finally sorted it out. First I went to file, create, and logos and then chose text circle. A dialog box appeared and I wrote the text that would eventually go round and round comprising the image. I then clicked ok. After seeing the image automatically appear on the screen. The next step was to go to windows and click first on dockable layers and then on layers. I then added the text to the clipboard, highlighted the text circle layer from the layers menu and then selected edit copy to copy the text circle to the clipboard. *Next I selected layer, new layer from the image menu. Within the dialog box that popped out I named the layer "Layer 1", checked the "white" radio button under "layer fill type" and clicked ok. I then went to the edit menu and clicked paste. The next step was to use the rotate tool from the toolbar to click on the text on the image. This after having made sure that the pasted layer was highlighted on the layers menu. Upon seeing the "rotation information" dialog come out, I increased the angle to 45 degrees and clicked rotate. I then used the anchor icon from the bottom of the layers menu to anchor the floating layer. I then repeated the steps from the star * on three times adding 5 degrees each time. Before deciding for adding 5 degrees each time, I tried different options of degrees adding. I found this one to make the animated image very readable compared to other larger degrees additions. Finally I saved the animated gif saving it as an animation under the export file dialog box, checking the "loop forever" box and increasing the delay betweeen frames to 499 milliseconds (500 milliseconds would not appear and this was the closest number).
