[java] Using animated gifs

From everything I've seen, java can't display animated gifs.
I'm writing a game in my computer science class, and would like to have animated sprites. I'm using the ImageIcon class to display images.
Does anybody know how to do this?

hmmm... back when I was toying around with images, I just made a series of images, and stored them in an array of Image class.

Then I cycled through them... fun, fun, fun.

That is how you have to do it.

damn. I guess I'll do that.
Yet another array to loop through everytime I redraw!
