Each Effect.fx
file is simply a ZIP file containing a number of PNG images that make up the animation sequence. Each file is numbered from 0 to X depending on how many frames are in the animation.
SteamAPNG takes these images and stitches them together to make the animation.

folder next to SteamAPNG.exe
