Navigating frames in anim image?

Whats the correct method to navigate through a set of images in an anim frame.

Currently I use both keyhit() and KeyDown(), keyhit() to change what frame I'm on in an anim image and keydown() to move the player.

What I would like to know is if I move the player left and right or up and down, what is the correct way of changing the frame to correspond with the direction?

Thx for your help.

You just pass an extra paramter, ie `frame number`, to the DrawImage command, for rendering it. As for what sequence of animations you do to `walk` or run, you just want to move your character a little bit and cycle the frame number around.
