This completed Blinkie is 33kb. Which is rather heavy for what it is. The reason it is so large is because of the animated bar I used. Although the bar is 6kb approx. it has 10 frames. To produce a completed Blinkie that is smaller in kb size select a animated bar that is 2 to 3 frames.
How do you find out how many frames a animation has?
Take it to GifWorks and click on the View Tab. At the bottom of the drop down list click on Image Info The following Link is a example of the information returned on this red animated bar. At the bottom of the page the number of frames is listed : Image Info

The reason that this blinkies annotated Text doesn't jump is the way I built the parts. I made a 2 pixel clear stablizing frame around the center area on the base to composite on.
This is also the reason why my blank blinkies when annotated on don't jump either. At least I hope that my recovered copies of my blank blinkies are the ones I re-did. LOL DOH!
