Use a program called "Pure Data".
I usually just stream from disk (or load into RAM if I'm gonna be seeking around a lot) and then set up an integer storage going into a modulus (a division that outputs the remainder, sort of like a 'limit')
add the frame offset, change the argument to the modulus, set up a for-loop to output the files in raw TIFF format (with magic number in their headers)
then i use ImageMagick's program mogrify with output "mogrify -format gif *.tif" so then it converts all the raw TIFF to individual GIF files then i use a program called Gifsicle to make it into a single animated file.
Gifsicle can optimize, resize, variable delay between frames etc etc
the advantage to using Pure Data is that you can overlay text on images and such without having to edit EVERY frame like you would have to do in something like ImageReady. The other advantage is that this software is 100% free and legal... hope u didn't pirate imageready.... <_<
