Linda,

Actually you load the image into the frame buffer and then create a
GsSPRITE that points to it. Then all you need to do is move and redraw
the sprite for each frame. There are several good examples of this in
the download area. I'd suggest that you start with 2D.ZIP in the SCEE
area and go from there.
