If you want to make an animated sprite, is there an easier way of having a list of all of the images in the animation in a table and cycling through them (i.e. being able to set coordinates on an image to show only a certain part of that image). If there's a way to do that, it'd be awesome, thanks

Awesome, thanks!

I don't think spritebatch is what you want.
You want a quad:
love.graphics.newQuad Quad
and to draw a quad:
love.graphics.drawq

Yeh my bad. I was clearly not awake when I read your question.
