Take a look at this tutorial http://www.2dgamecreators.com/tutorials/gameprogramming/basics/F7_Adding_Explosion.html You may want to start from the beginning http://www.blitzmax.com/Community/posts.php?topic=59509

First off you have to have used LoadAnimImage to load in a strip of frames. Then when drawing all you do is supply a frame argument of 1 or greater and that frame will be drawn ... easy. The harder bit is making the animation play at the speed you want it to.
