Photoshop Gif Overlap?

I used to have no problems making moving gifs. However now when I am making a moving gif using Photoshop CS5 my images come out as overlapping when I am using a transparent background. Here is an example: Grundo.gifHere is an image I made before with this same program on the same computer: 24bsqy1.gifSorry about my beginner skills but there it is. The one I made first doesn't have this problem but I have not done anything differently. Any Suggestions or solutions? Oh yeah here are the specs on the first image I made: Format: GIFDimensions: 100w x 100hSize: 14.88KSettings: Selective, 256 Colors, No Dither, 5 frames, Transparency on, No Transparency Dither, Non-Interlaced, 0% Web Snap

each frame has added a layer on top of it looking at the frames frame 1 you have just 1 version of your image frame 2 you have the next sequence in the animation and the frame 1 frame 3 you have a new layer and frame 2 and 1 etc

have you got the psd with each frame on its own layer.
 
The green thing, you left the first frame open on all other frames and saved it.
 
Thanks, I am not a professional at this but not extremely new either. I made sure that each animation frame only has 1 layer visible at a time. I know that much. When I play it through in photoshop its fine. Its when I save it that it has this issue.
 
ALL the image were saved with the first layer open so they all need editing out
unless you have the psd
 
Here let me clarify. [video]http://tinypic.com/usermedia.php?uo=TChd6DpwTVXaR2b2prx4L4h4l5k2TGxc[/video]

MMM not sure what the problem is but I have a work around if you turn of transparancy in the save for web decices dialogue box it works fine with a white background

try creating a blank layer underneath each layer with an image on and merge them together so you apply the blending options I think it could be your layer styles that are causing the problem so you need to pernamently have the layer style applied to the layer if that makes sense
 
Erm, I wasn't spamming? I didn't know you had to be a member to see the video thats why I used a different site try the second link you don't have to register anything!

I know it works with a white background but I am using it on a webpage and it looks tacky and sticks out like a sore thumb with a white background but thanks for the tip.

I know what your saying Hoogle I will try that real quick and let you know thanks!
 
the original as a blocky background NOT on white layer, the images in that original are of differing sizes?
 
So I made a blank layer for each layer with an image and merged the photo layer with a blank layer and tried to save again and it has the same issue. =( I don't understand why it used to save fine before and now it does this and the images look ridiculous.

I get that it appears when I am saving that it is showing all layers at once but that is not how I have it set up and its really aggravating.

Well yeah see it works for you fine, but I create these images a lot and it won't save like that for me. I used to be able to save them with a transparent background and they turned out like the one you posted but my system will not let it happen. I have done it a thousand times before and it never did this.
