Text in animated gif

I've made a simple animated gif and what I wanted to do was have a word appear as the last frame. But the text box remains blank, though the text is black and the gif is red. Is there a way I can add text? What am I doing wrong? Or what do I need to do?

A wild guess:

The image is in indexed mode, and the text color is not in the palette.

If that's the case: switch to RGB mode, add your text, then switch back to indexed mode.
