About This Script

Loads a sequence of numbered images from a folder and places each one as a separate layer in the correct order. The script auto-detects numbering patterns (001, 002... or frame_1, frame_2... or any consistent naming). Each layer is named with the original filename. Includes options to resize images to match the document size, create a timeline animation from the layers, and set frame duration. Output layers can be organized in a group. Perfect for combining animation frames, creating sprite sheets from image sequences, assembling panoramas, and building time-lapse compositions.
