First, I'm going to assume you're using Gtkmm 2; with Gtkmm 2 it's
very easy. You just use the wrapped pixbuf functionality from the Gdk
namespace (this will give you a Glib::RefPtr<Gdk::Pixbuf>), put a
Gtk::Image inside your window, and use the set method of the image to
set the pixbuf. You can even put the whole animation directly into the
image if that's what you want.

All clear?
