    Do you have Adobe Photoshop or Fireworks?

    Basically you want to make sure the Animation window is on and add panes there. For each pane show/hide layers and set timing of frames.

    i donno how much you know about web design but you can do the actual design in macromedia flash and in the same software you can get the html text to past in the header of the web page. i donno if there is any more user friendly softweares but this is the way that most web designer do any kind of animation. btw you will need flash media player application in order to see it after posting it on your website.

    That can be worked out. :) I can't do this all the time though - and I do get asked a lot.
