How do I do it. Does anyone know of any good tutorials + software for it?

Isn't it evident?? Boeing are my favourite aircraft.

P.S. that's is my real birthday but I wish to keep my real age secret to keep you all pondering.

They're realitively easy to do. I used to animate 'stickdeath' a few years ago just using MS Paint and a GIF complier.
All you need to do is find the GIF complier software (I use Jasc Animation shop, you should be able to get it with the Painshop Pro trial), import your images into there, then play around with the timing and placement and you're set.
Not much of a tutorial, but it's relavtively easy to use software. Just be sure to keep your sizes low, because big animated GIFs can get quite big quickly.
