Does anyone know of any simple animation games or scripts I can referrer to to see how they switch thru 2 images to make it look like they are moving.

Nor have I, but you could just have a frame counter: If the character is walking, for instance, and there are 10 frames in your walking loop, then:
if frame_number%10 == 0: #frame_number is a multiple of ten
  #draw frame 1
elif frame_number%9 == 0: #frame_number ends in 9
  #draw frame 2
elif frame_number%9 == 0: #frame_number ends in 8

  #draw frame 3
elif frame_number%9 == 0: #frame_number ends in 7

  #draw frame 4
elif frame_number%9 == 0: #frame_number ends in 6

  #draw frame 5
elif frame_number%9 == 0: #frame_number ends in 5

  #draw frame 6
elif frame_number%9 == 0: #frame_number ends in 4

  #draw frame 7
elif frame_number%9 == 0: #frame_number ends in 3

  #draw frame 8
elif frame_number%9 == 0: #frame_number ends in 2

  #draw frame 9
elif frame_number%9 == 0: #frame_number ends in 1

  #draw frame 10
...or something like that.
