Animated gif frames per second query

Question

I've been making very simple animated gifs in photoshop and it's been fine until I've just been told, from the last lot I created, that google won't accept them because the frames per second are higher than 5FPS. I have no idea what this means or how to fix it... this is the screen shot of the message from google:

I'm no photoshop expert, my gifs are very simple usually just 7 or 8 changing frames. I've done many and have never had this happen before, I'm not doing anything different. I can't see in the timeline how to set or change frames per second. Can someone please help me?? At wit's end!

Many thanks

What is the duration for each frame (look underneath the frame in the timeline?

For a frame rate of 5FPS the duration needs to be 0.2s. A higher duration will reduce the frame-rate, a lower duration will increase it.

So how do you make the transitions (like fading opacity) smooth with such small fps? I've recently had the same issue with Google, and using the method above just makes it jumpy. Any suggestions?
