Seems easy enough to do.

Unfortunately, I'm not in a helpful mood.

Make sure you examine the computer once you get it, to locate any unusual biological virus's that cause a being to become insane and unrational. Your friend is one WEIRD dude :p

It'd be easy so long as he didn't want the animation, just a still frame.
And anyway, it's walking like a bloody pidgeon - can't he just use that as its alternative animal?
(this wouldn't have anything to do with that "Incredible Creatures" game, or whatever it is, would it?)

So, you're to add these various animal attributes to a model of the Giraffe, or to the single image?

Either could be hillarious with the right sense of humour.

Irfan has a (****ty) compressor, you can just save as GIF. Paint will do if you're good, Photoshop if you're slightly less good.

Paint Shop pro has a gif builder in it somewhere... I think it's actually the other proggy that comes with it that does it though.

There's a nice freeware program called Unfreez that makes animated gifs, and it has a really basic drag 'n drop interface. I have it hosted here .

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill
