If it's a linear sequence you're after, you might be better off using a
[single] PictureBox and load a series of images into it (held in, say,
an ImageList) to give the illusion of movement.
If you're after something more complicated like, say, a binary counter,
you'll need to stick with the individual controls and have the Timer do
some bit-twiddling to work out which ones should be on or off with
each iteration.
