GIMP supports .gif files jut fine. When you create a new file chose
"transparent" for the background type. Create the grahpic as usual. If you
need a background to work againt make it your fist layer and delete it when
done. To save first 'index" the file to under 256 colors then save as a .gif.
The saved graphic will be transparent.
