title: Multiple Frame Animations with threads Android
body: <p>I have an activity where I need to display 5 animations in order (when one ends, another starts on the right) First, I tried to use a simple XML file and go from there, but I was getting OutOfMemory errors (I use around 40 png images for each animation).
   I did some research, and I think the only way that I can do it is to use a thread to put the images one by one then release them when they are not needed anymore. The thing is I'm new to Android and I have no idea how to do it.
    I tried to use a class that another guy made available, but it didn't work for me cause I don't know how to control the thread very well (Could make it run for only one animation, or run all five, but on the same spot.. I need to run each animation on a different imageView).</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestion is welcome.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
