I'm sorry, on Paint you can't make moving pictures. You would really have to use a animation (ish) program, such as Serif Photo Shop (I think), which is (if I remember corectly) where I made my Blinking Beau avatar.

Sorry, bout that.

Theres many programs now that allow simple animation editing. Even the latest version of photoshop has support for animation. Macromedia Fireworks is a web graphics program that I find great for gif animation. Theres also Ulead animation shop and paint shop pro. just do a search and find youself some software, theres probably even some free software out there too. All you need is a minimum of 2 frames 1 normal and 1 where the picture is changed, when the frames are played back it appears like the picture is moving.
Have fun.
