In animations frame can be of two types:
- replace: the frame replace everything that has been displayed until then
- combine: the frame is added over the existing image
Usually you want mostly replace (but optimizations for file size (like Filters>Optimize>For GIF) can replace some of that by combine).
You tell Gimp if you want combine or replace by adding them in parentheses in the layer name in the layers list: My layer (replace). You can also specify this hen you export the animation.
