==Having a character continuously animated in the background==
''When I animate my character or object, it jerks around from left to right all the time. I've checked everything, and all of my frames were imported correctly. What could be the problem?''
Well, the most common cause for this problem is that each frame of this animation has a different width (bear in mind that the character sprites are all pivoted at the centre of the base). Resize all the images to the same width (I would recommending finding out the largest width out of all the images and resize them all accordingly). You might have to play around with moving each frame from left to right to get them aligned. Jasc's Animation Shop is perfect for resizing (cropping) and alterations like the above.
