Adding Frame to Image

I've been messing around like crazy and still can't get .net to add a
new frame to an image.

Here's what I do:

Create an image from a Bitmap that is (1X1) in size.

pb.Image = new Bitmap(1, 1);

Encoder myEncoder = Encoder.SaveFlag;

EncoderParameters myEncoderParameters = new EncoderParameters(1);

EncoderParameter myEncoderParameter = new EncoderParameter(myEncoder,
(long)EncoderValue.MultiFrame);

myEncoderParameters.Param[0] = myEncoderParameter;

pb.Image.Save(FileName, GetEncoderInfo("image/tiff"), myEncoderParameters);

So far, so good.

Then to add a page I do the following:

Bitmap page = new Bitmap(tmpFileName);

Encoder myEncoder = Encoder.SaveFlag;

EncoderParameters myEncoderParameters = new EncoderParameters(1);

// Save the second page (frame).

EncoderParameter myEncoderParameter = new EncoderParameter(myEncoder,
(long)EncoderValue.FrameDimensionPage);

myEncoderParameters.Param[0] = myEncoderParameter;

//Save

pb.Image.SaveAdd(page, myEncoderParameters);

//Flush

myEncoderParameter = new EncoderParameter(myEncoder,
(long)EncoderValue.Flush);

myEncoderParameters.Param[0] = myEncoderParameter;

pb.Image.SaveAdd(myEncoderParameters);

But when I try and get a page count like this:

System.Drawing.Imaging.FrameDimension oFDimension = new
System.Drawing.Imaging.FrameDimension(this.Image.FrameDimensionsList[0]);

return this.Image.GetFrameCount(oFDimension);

it always comes back with 1 instead of what it should now be which is two.
What am I doing wrong
