Blending an animation

Can anyone help me achieve this blending effect? I've been wanting to know how to do it forever. I use Photoshop 7.

i'm doing this from the top of my head, but if you have 2 different animations you can copy and paste the frames from one ani and put it after the 2nd ani. click the last frame of the first ani and click the "tween" button on Image Ready. A window will pop up and it'll ask how many blending frames you want. you want to check the box that says something like add frames after selection. when you press OK, you'll get the desired number of frames that blend out to the 2nd ani.

hopefully this makes sense. if you have questions, i can probably explain more :]

wait. i did that wrong. i just went back and tried it out. what you can do is...
i'm going to cheat and use 2 different gifs i found on tumblr.
gif 1 & gif 2
credit goes to glee gif tumblr site

image tutorial has 4 steps
1.copy frames of gif 2
2.paste frames of gif 2
3...after gif 1
4.depending where you want the blending to begin click a frame in gif 1 and then click the EYE button on the layers palate of gif 2
change the opacity of the gif 2 layer.
the concept is to go through the remaining frames of gif 1 and clicking the "matching" layer of gif 2 and increasing the opacity amount.
5.so now you delete the first frames of gif 2 because it will be a duplicate of the blended frames.

end product:
