Check the BlitzBasic.com Toolbox; there's an excellent program there called GraphicsGale, specifically geared towards creating "sprites." When you install GG, follow this procedure for each image, to put them into one.
1. Start a new image in GG, and set the width & height values to the dimensions you need.
2. Open the first image that you want to insert, but open it in Microsoft Paint (my recommendation.)
3. Press CTRL + A to select the entire image, then press CTRL + X to "cut" it out.
4. Return to GG, and press CTRL + V to paste the image.
For every additional frame, click "Add Frame" (second toolbar, far left) and repeat steps 2-4. Note that all frames must be the same size, if they're in a single image. Good luck!
