Finally got to try out the gif creator recommended by @Weezilou You need to click and view as this is a series of photos as an animation. with the right photos this could be quite the buzz :) thanks for the many lovely comments, not sure how this will go here, but it was fun to give it a try. I used a free tool you can download called PhotoScape X
Brilliant. I love it. Funny that I should see Louise's name on your post as I was only just thinking that I hadn't seen a post of hers for ages. Must head on over to her page and see what she's up to.
