Ok, but it's still not clear what the new skin would have to do. You'd like an animation using the GMSIR0 - GMSIR10 images? But in this case, what the simple-black-frame-md.png and no-signal-noise-19543886.jpg images will be used for?
So, please give us some details.

That's very open-ended, and has a flavor of a "skin request", which we don't allow or do here. Do you have specific questions, or do you have some code that you have written that you need help with?

In general, I gather you will want to download all the images that make up the animation using WebParser, display the images one after the other in a loop of some kind, using the Loop Measure or the ActionTimer Plugin, while constraining the image(s) inside the boundaries defined by an image, using MaskImage.

If you get stuck on one of those bits, please do let us know, posting any code you have written that isn't working as you expect.

What we won't do is respond to "I want a skin that does XXXX, can someone write it for me?". We understand that nobody is born knowing how to do stuff in Rainmeter, and we don't mind helping even with the most basic things, as long as your goal is to learn from the exercise, so next time you have a good idea of how to do things yourself, and eventually YOU will be the one providing help on the forums.

So we are going out one at a time and getting those GMSIR(XX) images in order. Once we have the last one (10) we start a Loop measure that counts from 0 to 10. We will use that number in our Image meter.

In our Image meter, we just display the images we downloaded, using the Loop measure to drive the number of the image we are displaying.

Note that they do not have any file extensions on the site, so we need for force a "." at the end so Rainmeter doesn't assume it is a .png file.

[!SetOption MeterLoopImage ImageName "GMSIR[*MeasureLoop*]."]

Note also that it will take about 1 second per image to go download them when the skin is first loaded or refreshed, so you might want to consider having some image or string meter that is initially displayed. Something to indicate "Working on it....".

As far as the border image, I personally wouldn't use that. I would just use a Shape meter to create a nice vector frame around the image(s).
