Incase this helps for testing gthumb etc, you can trivially create APNGs via Firefox's APNG editor addon (in the Tools menu after installing) - just drag'n'drop some local images to the bottom bit and save the animation.

Much better quality than animated GIFs, support in gthumb would be appreciated.

Marking as obsolete, as the 2.x version are no longer supported.

Please feel free to reopen this bug report if it describes a problem that still occurs with a current version of gThumb (currently 3.4.1).
