Store the frame images in an ImageList control. When a Timer fires, copy the next frame's image into a visible PictureBox. This program loops forward and backward through images 1 to 11.
 
Private Sub tmrNextFrame_Timer()
Static next_frame As Integer
Static d_frame As Integer

    If d_frame = 0 Then d_frame = 1
    next_frame = next_frame + d_frame
    If next_frame > imlFrames.ListImages.Count Then
        next_frame = imlFrames.ListImages.Count
        d_frame = -1
    ElseIf next_frame < 1 Then
        next_frame = 1
        d_frame = 1
    End If

    picScreen.Picture = _
        imlFrames.ListImages(next_frame).Picture
    DoEvents
End Sub
