[1.7.2] Animated block texture?

[HappleAcks]

So, if I have a block, how can I make the texture on it animate (if I have a bunch of images for each frame). I know Minecraft added support for it, but I don't know how to make it cycle through the textures.

Is it just a simple block texture or is it an "entity texture" for a custom tile entity renderer?

Simple block.

You stack the images vertically in a *.png, then add a *.png.mcmeta with the same name.

{
  "animation": {}
}

This link might help, it worked for 1.6.4 and might still be valid  (not sure)

Which link?

I was under the impression this was phased out when they separated the images a few updates ago, but if it still works that's great! Where do I put the "animation" though? (Also is that the actual code or is it a form of suedocode?)
