# most animation tools have ways of importing image sequences
if its a crappy gif then animation shop if you can find it, if video Premiere will do it

# Ah, cheers
I don't have any animation tool, except for an older version of flash (of which I don't know if it'll run any more).

# I think the quality would be rubbish and the filesize enormous.

# If you name the jpgs sequentially such as jpg-00, jpg-01 etc.
when you open your jpg you can select "image sequence" by clicking the checkbox and that will import them all into a single file which you can save as a .mov file
