You need to find software that can create an animated GIF image - I use Adobe stuff (Flash, Fireworks, PhotoShop) but recall that there much simpler tools available, some for free on t'Interweb - Google is your friend, young Padwan...

Well then, if it's DIY you fancy (big sense of achievement too when it's done), try the following tutorial:
http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/feature/1664.html

If you fancy a tutorial from the horse's mouth, so to speak, see http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/Simple_Animations/

These use a free graphics editor called The GiMP (stop sniggering - its full name is 'The GNU Image Manipulation Program') and is 'open source' software that won't cost you a penny. Get it at www.gimp.org

And no, GiMP.org still isn't a place for those who prefer their leather upholstery to be more snug fitting and, well, body hugging with oddly placed zips.

Mind you, geeks did bring to the world other totally genuine computing terminology such as port sniffing, finger, poke, nybble, byte, floppy, backdoor, promiscuous mode, man-in-the-middle, daisy chain, snort, software-firmware-hardware, mount, and - for something completely random - elfdump. There are loads more, but at least you now know where these guys minds are at.

Look them up - you'll need the Google filters off though, and a good excuse if you get caught...
