Do you mean like "I've got a gif that I want to use in my
scene"? In that case, take a look at the docs under 'image
map'.

Try the documentation!
POV 3.0: press the yellow DOCS button
POV 3,1: press the 'scene' button

Thank you!

Text (written in any TrueType font) can be rendered using
the text object. Again, the documentation explains about all
this. It is a very useful source of information to have
around.
