Would Anyone Know How To Add More Cells To A Head Sign So I Can Make It Animated?

Most any mesh should be able to use an animated texture. (there are a few exceptions.) You just place the texture map with all the cells in it into the texture slot like you would a normal texture. Then you click the "On" box under texture animation, set it for "cycling animation" and set the numbers in the "Frames/cell" (speed) "Cell Width" and "Cell Height" as well as "Start Cell" and "Num Cells".

The last two frames in the first post of THIS Thread show you what it should resemble. Your numbers may be slightly different to set the speed how you like it.
