Okay, okay... I can wait.  Drink some chamomile
tea, and get plenty of rest!  Those mid-summer
colds can be the WORST!

As to animating sequences, I highly recommend a
shareware program called Animagic.  Before I used
it for my own gallery stuff, I was using it to
create banner ads and animated web content for a
major company... very easy to use, and the output
is extremely clean.

Take care, and GET BETTER!!  ^_^
