Thanks for your replies. Nat, i already have that dialogue box come up each time, i would expect it to function as you suggest (i.e.pushing everything along the timeline) but it doesn't, it overwrites, hence my frustration with it. Borate, your solution partly works for me, i don't know if it's because i'm using the free version that functionality is limited, but i cannot highlight multiple frames, so will have to drag and drop each one in turn, time taking but perhaps quicker than re-doing. Thanks again to you both for taking the time to reply.

I've spent quite few hours now playing about with Videopad and get on quite well with it, but one thing i can't seem to work out, or devise a workaround for, is how to insert a video or image within a project without overwriting existing video or images. It seems a very basic task so is particularly frustrating not to be able to find a way to do this. I've spent quite a while animating a series of images and am now looking to place an image at the front of this sequence but now cannot find a way to do this without overwriting part of the animation. What am i doing wrong? How can i insert an image or a chunk of time at the start? Thanks.
