i use animation shop

first you open all the parts that are being put together, add up the total width and height for all of them combined, make a new image, insert x amount of frames x being 1 less then the total amount of frames in the animation, select all in the lower left part of the animations hold controll and drag them to the first blank frame in youn new animation

make sure you position the lower left part in the exact way that it was in the animation you took it from, let go of the left click, now you have all of the frames in the lower left part in you ne animation sequence and they are all in a spot relative to the one you first placed, do the same for the lower right animation and make sure the top corner matches up with the top corner of the lower left one, repeat for the other two parts, wala u just made a part of the d2 directional motion, repeat 4 more times mirror left-up,left, down-left and combine to form one full d2 action

this prolly isnt too clear but writing toutorials was never my strong point
