Normal service will be resumed ASAP
EDIT 3:
Me is just back from teh pub:
Sorry, I should have put here why the board seems borked, and why things are confusted..
(although I also thought maybe a mod would have, but whatever)
After the board was fixed there was a problem with the times/clocks/hampsters that run things, and this (due to transatlantic time differences and the little people that live in the internet) means that my post is stuck here until 3AM UK time.
hence the testcard...
This means (at time of posting) you have just over 2 and a half hours before everything gets back to normal.
In the meantime, amuse yourselves in whatever way you see fit, and dont make a mess...

*curtsies*
there probably are some tuts out there.
I just took advantage of the mirrored quality of your picture to mock up an animation. To make four frames out of the still image, I made copies at the original size and slightly reduced, and flipped each of those. I also dropped the brightness of each by different amounts to make a looping sequence of four.
If you were using decent software like photoshop and imageready, this'd be easier, but I'm using cacky MS knockoffs, so I have to do each bit by hand - that is, creating an 8-grey solid palette for the gif, saving each frame, and assembling them in the nasty little gif animator tool in image composer.
So, a pleasing effect without any serious manipulation of the original image.

wow.
i'm using photoshop (and have imageready, but have played with it rarely), but not your knowledge of what to do with it. i've been offered a crash course by a friend who teaches image manipulation at one of the local universities -- looks like i'll have to take him up on it.
again, well done, and thanks for the explanation. i'll explore.

s'alright
I don't know imageready either, but from what I've seen, it makes resizing and optimising animations much, much easier.
Probably even easier to make, since each frame is treated as a layer - like traditional pencil-traced animation.
