Like an animated GIF? Yeah, but you'll need a program. There were some free trial GIF animator proggies I tried out, but you have to purchase them if you want to use them permanently.

Hi Vulcan,
I'm sure there are freeware options out there for this task. Try searching on www.Tucows.com for "Gif Animator" or manually browsing their Graphic Utilities section.
Cheers,
Christian

As long as everyone is plugging their favorite graphics app I might as well plug somebody else's smile.
Maybe GIMPWin can do it too?
It's worth reading their specs to find out.

Or, if this is a one-time project, you can download the trial/evaluation version of Adobe Photoshop 7.0.1, which is fully-functional (including saving of files) for 30 days.

Hi Adam,
Thanks for the letting me know. I have to admit I've never even tried a copy of PhotoShop outside of Kinkos and you know I'm not going to just sit there and learn it at their prices.
Cheers,
Christian
