Basically,you have to treat every new frame as a new picture (sort of).
You need to sort out the psd file first, for instance, if you had a penguin moving through a snowy landscape you make the landscape a separate layer and the penguin a separate layer. Have your penguin at the starting point, duplicate the layer then move the duplicated penguin layer to the next position you want it in, and so on and so on till you've completed the animation.
Then take the psd file into Imageready.
For the first frame, make sure the background layer and the first penguin is layer turned. Then go to the next frame, keep the background layer turned on, but turn off the first penguin layer and turn on the second layer, and go through the whole thing like that.
