This is a very simple technique that you might have seen in people's signatures.

In Photoshop I made my signature and then linked and merged all the layers except the name/PePe layers. I named this layer no words. I did this so I had fewer layers to work with in ImageReady. I made four lite name layers and four dark name layers.

The settings I used when working in ImageReady can be found here. For frame 1: showing: lite name 1 and dark name 2, 3 & 4. Hidden: lite name 2, 3 & 4 and dark name 1. Click on the tiny arrow located at the bottom of frame 1 and choose 0.2 sec.

Add another frame. For frame 4: showing: lite name 4 and dark name 1, 2 & 3. Hidden: lite name 1, 2 & 3 and dark name 4. Now click on the tiny arrow that I added a purple outline to and choose Optimize Animation... Make sure both boxes are checked in the pop up window and click ok. Now choose from the menu bar File>Save Optimized As... name your file and you're done.
