I guess you are asking about a gif file with multiple frames (or a similar format). In this case you have to use a graphic editor to extract those frames in separated graphic files and then create a sprite as described in the docs.

And I guess (again ;)) you created a poll by mistake.

I voted for the first "a". Seemed more right to me.

You'll need to cut the animation frames to separate images. While internally the engine could be able to handle this, it's not supported by the editing tools.
