Comment on Tutorial : Animation sample program in Android By Ashley
In case your having trouble

1 the ani.xml file must be located in the res/layout directory not the drawable directory.

2 as mentioned earlier Change the line from
imgView.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.ani);

to

imgView.setBackgroundResource(R.layout.ani);

3. in the ani.xml file you must have the drawable references in your drawable folder or the correct resolution display folder.

eg:

<item
android:drawable="@drawable/ic_launcher1"
android:duration="50" />
<item
android:drawable="@drawable/ic_launcher2"
android:duration="50" />
<item
android:drawable="@drawable/ic_launcher3"
android:duration="50" />

in this example i simply used the ic_launcher icon that by default is included in drawable-hdpi, drawable-mdpi, drawable-ldpi, folders and renamed them as ic_launcher_1,2,3 respectivley. And then copied them into the drawable folder...

you can use any png you want just make sure they are in the drawable folder and referenced in ani.xml

hope this makes sence...
