Hello, I'd like to get the values of index pixels from an 
animated gif.

mygraphiclist = Import["animated.gif"]
gives me a list of graphics objects.

I'm looking for the rgb values.

data[frame_] = mygraphicslist[frame_,1,2,1,1] gives me
the correct dimensions for an individual frame, i.e.,
Dimensions[data[12]] is the image size.

I can't seem to find the rgb values, i.e.,
data[12][[12,25]] is an integer, but is this an index to a 
map, or a 0-255 for R,G, or B?
