ok, listen carefully and pay attentionPaint Shop Pro to bust up the initial image, seperating it in to usable layers of head and jaw.
Then go in to 3DS MAX (a snip at £3000, cheaper free 3d packages like blender are available and just as capable of doing this)
Create a couple of planes, apply the images to both, then start chopping up the planes so that there are enough subdivisions to handle the deformation.
The next step is down to personal preference, you can either skin the geometry to a few bones or dummy objects and animate them or simply apply an FFD cage that you can animate the control points on. Either way animate the geometry to create the motion you want.
Put that in a pre-heated oven at Regulo 4 and then render it. Take that render, load it up in Animation Shop, strip out unnecessary frames, alter the frame rate, add your logo, crush it down to a decent number of colours and file size and save it out as a gif.
that answer your question?
apologies if you thought I didn't put any work in to these ;)

CTRL-COpen new document.
CTRL-V.
Weep because couldn't work 3DSMAX even after spending £500 quid on books. I did do a really good asteroid floating through space with added stock starfield effect.
Your animations are great.
