Click on the Layer palette's submenu arrow and select Duplicate Layer.
Step5
Click on the eyeball icon to the left of the bottom layer on the Layer palette. Use the pencil tool to add to the image on the top layer. Select the erase tool to remove part of the image.

Under the file menu, select Jump to, and then Adobe ImageReady 2.0. Save when prompted.
Animating in ImageReady

Preview your animation by pressing play on the Animation palette.
Add more unique frames for a richer animation.
