Flickering Background Color

I have noticed that, in exported gifs, the background color seems to change and flicker throughout the animation. Does anyone know what causes this, or how to fix it?

it's caused by sprites. not sure what the solution is, if there is one.

It happens in animations without sprites, or it used to at least. I remember the gif of our last joint had that problem.

Use the good old gimp method that we used to use for unraping pivot2 .gifs

It's either sprites or transparent sticks for as far as I've found. But yeah, GIMP does an excellent job of unraping gifs.
