Open each created image in a single Photoshop file by placing them all into their own layers.

Step 3: Convert layers into frames
Click on the drop down menu called "Window". Select "Timeline". From the timeline menu, select "make frames from layers"

Step 4: Save your GIF
Select the drop down menu called "File". Click on "Save for Web". Choose "GIF". Click "Save".
