Animated icon question

[cheesycats]

Help! Okay, I figured out how to make an animation all nice and smooth and small like the one in the icon I'm using here, but how do you get it onto the framed background? I'm using Animation Shop (Paint Shop Pro).

Well, I used to paste each frame on the backround and save them individually, but that took forever. Then I wizened up and figured out a new way, let's see if I can explain it though >.<

When you have all of your animation frames ready, open up a new file with your backround. Duplicate that frame for however many you need. Than select all of the animation frames and drag it down to the backround frames. Make sure you drag from the first frame to the first frame.

Is that in the least bit clear? I'm not so good at explaining things. Plus, I'm exhausted, and therefor I can't even think clearly.
