# I have a horrifically boring Genetics lecturer

# if you have p/shop 5.5 or above
it comes with Imageready - which is an animation package. If not there are a few free packages out there - try a google search maybe?

# Paintshop Pro
is your best bet, as you can down load a trial version, that's good for a month.
It has animation studio bundled with it.

# don't recommend that
we'll get huge gifs not the nicely optimised ones we like to see.

amateurish, clunky, poorly optimised gifs are the way forward!
