    Forgive me if this is in the wrong section, as I am not entirely sure where it belongs.

    Anyway, what I'm trying to do is animate a simple sprite so that it's simply running. This one in particular.

    Now, I know it could technically be done frame by frame and simply changing the image displayed rapidly, but I was wondering if there is a program that would do this for me that is free seeing as I am broke.
    I'm attempting to make an opening cinematic for a RPG i'm working on, and any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Try GIMP, a free open-source Photoshop alternative. Like in Photoshop, you can treat each layer as a frame when exporting to GIF format.
