To do that: go to Edit --> Duplicate Selected.
Duplicate it until you have enough.
If you have more than 8 just click on the extra frames - one by one
and delete them.

Drag your image out to reveal all the frames.
Go back to frame 1 of the image.

Edit --> Paste into Selected Frames.
The etoile animation will cling to the mouse pointer now.
Position it where you want it and then just click on the spot in the frame.
Click on the animation icon to view the animation.
