    are all of your png images the same dimensions? if not then that could be a reason for out of sync.

    if your referring to the background "white" then you need to export it to a transparent background.

    You need to learn "How" to animate. Take some time to learn this.

    @ipad666 Easiest place to go is youtube. If you are going to animate, keep frames to a minimum!! You'll want to keep animations small and you won't need to animate everything or the whole thing. So for your rocket just animate a piece that needs animated like the flame. Keep it to just a couple frames. Then add the animation as an object to your scene. Copy it. Delete it in the scene. Then paste inside your character graphic.
