ok

lets say u loaded ur images(sprites)

we then make a variable to control what image is shown on the sprite.



im using 1 and 2, but u can use what ever the image numbers are that u have loaded in.

we then time the routine and update when a certain amount of time has passed



hope thats a little clearer. 3 am here again. so forgive my spelling.


aye!
