hi
I would go for a system like this
1) store the delay you want to apply (I would put in the detail of you custom frame)
2)do a for(MyCustomView *inst in TheCollectionThatGroupsMyListOfElement)
in which you can happely launch a timer that will animate you View and set the delay of the timer to the value stored in you custom view
Timer Programming Topics for Cocoa: Using Timers
I don't know what you mean by sprite ut if you mean a composed view (icon + text + another iamge etc
then just create a custom UIView in wich you build your custom display
i did like that to create a image with some text underneath
hope it helped
