# I take one wideish
background image, duplicate it and then merge the two layers together so they're joined side by side. Then try and hide the join with the clone tool and smudge tool. Then you apply a motion blur to the whole thing and move the layer to three different positions, ie. move it left, then left a bit more, then more still. Once you play it back it will loop forever

Edit: I'm a bit crap at explaining but I'm sure there will be a tutorial about somewhere

# My Dear Dogtanian,
What an eloquent explanation. I'd normally do the same grab-another-background thing only I inherited the pic from someone else who did an ace job already: I had to animate it as a sort of homage. It's like hummus only quieter.

# It's more impressive
that you had to work with the existing backgound, it makes for a great pic, classic stuff

# First,
get a job as a creative director. Next, spend alllllll Friday morning hungover and lazy and pretending to work. Then, um, dunno. I thought I'd remember but I kinda forgot. I think it took me AAAGES to remove a chip caravan, some signs and a hangar, and make it all into a kinda generic background that I shifted thrice then looped.

I also spent an hour making him jiggle. And got paid for it. Heh.

(Your wheels and stuff are good though. And there's nothing ever wrong with an animal, a form of transport, and a blurry background. Woo!)

# He's fantastic
I've got a feeling that McTed could outrun him in a straight line but get slaughtered at the corners. Lurvely stuff
