Another idea would be to use enable/disable.  Load all the structures
and then only have one enabled at a time

load frame1.pdb, morph_frame1
. . .
load frame20.pdb, morph_frame20

disable *frame*
enable *frame1
   take a picture
disable *frame1
enable *frame2
   take a picture

repeat

A bit tedious, but very scriptable - write a script to make such a
file if you have a lot of frames.
