FTP Upload Animated GIF

I am using Enterprise with the Monitor to watch a folder for animated GIFs then FTP them to a folder as well as save a copy of them locally. The local copy of the Animated GIF is fine but when the file is uploaded to my FTP server, the result is a new GIF file (sequentially numbered) for each frame of the Animated GIF.

Is there a way to preserve the multi frame format when uploading?

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback.

In BatchPhoto (Edit > Settings > Image Formats) you have the option to save a multi-layered image like an animated GIF as:
1. One image for each layer
2. Flatten all layers
3. Save the first layer only

Unfortunately you cannot edit an animated GIF and re-save it as an animated GIF as well.
