any compositing software will do:\nAdobe After Effects, Discreet Combustion, Apple Shake and etc. \n\nif you want a cheaper and more simple software to do that, you can use these ones, though you have less control:\n\nAdobe ImageReady (is installed with photoshop automatically), Windows MovieMaker (is installed with windows xp) or Macromedia Flash.\n\nif need more information contact me.

The short answer is that you use a program that supports it (I recommend the GIMP - http://www.gimp.org ).\n\nThe slightly longer answer is that it depends on how the software you are using wants you to. Different programs are set up differently and how you make an animated GIF in one may be different from a different one. Ultimately, you have to read the manual.

Only gif files can be animated, not jpeg. I use PhotoPlus, which is a free program you can use to easily make animated jpegs. For each screen in the animation just import the gif you want to put in that moment, and you can also edit them in a variety of ways.

Try the freeware JAnimation Shop in the source link. It is very similar to Jasc Animation Shop, which is commercial software.

Try tweening. For a basic user, the easiest way is to create two keyframes (select the timeline>right-click>insert keyframe) with a movie clip of the boat on each (make sure you leave enough frames between the two keyframes). Set the boat on the 2nd keyframe to where you want it to move, then select the two keyframes (use SHIFT and click) and then right-click (while the frames are selected) and set to Motion Tween.

GIMP is a good photoshop replacement.\n\nIf by "moving pictures" you mean .gif images, get a .gif editor (see link below)

ImageReady from Adobe.\n\nGIF Animator is also a nice animation creation software.

Using a graphics program such as Jasc Paint Shop Pro (http://jasc.com - 30 day free trial available), create a blank/transparent image, then add your photos as LAYERS.  You can then adjust which layer is on top, which is in the middle, etc. \n\nPSPro has a great tutorial with the trial version.  It's cheaper than Photoshop and Macromedia's Fireworks (which is DA BOMB!) but, it will use ALL of the photoshop plug-in's which allow you to manipulate images.  It's a GREAT program for beginner's.  Heck its a great program period, I have both of the others and STILL ocassionally use it!\n\nSearch the net for tutorials on LAYERING IMAGES in whatever graphics or photo editing program you are currently using.

GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) will let you do that quite nicely. You can find it at http://www.gimp.org
