Have you tried _anything_ yet? Where have you gotten stuck? – Oded Mar 07 '13 at 14:41

I agree with Thomas. Using video techniques will give you the best performance. Otherwise, displaying images sounds pretty straightforward. What have you tried? – Peopleware Mar 07 '13 at 14:43

winforms. Only way I know is ether reading them into imagelist control from directory or loading manually through the studio. I want it embedded in exe – Kristian Mar 07 '13 at 14:43

@kristian just a suggestion: winforms doesn't support animation. If you need an animation-intensive UI, use WPF. – Federico Berasategui Mar 07 '13 at 14:45

Maybe a simple GIF animation? See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/165735/how-do-you-show-animated-gifs-on-a-windows-form-c Or a video. – ken2k Mar 07 '13 at 14:47

To embed resources and use them in Visual Studio/.NET, all you need to know is written here. There are plenty of other guides, actually.
