I use a program called Adobe ImageReady. I'm sure there is a simpler program out there. If you're interested, I'd suggest googling it and checking out some tutorials.

ok you you can probally do it in windows movie maker this is how

take a screen shot cut out the parts you don't want save them in a file (you might have to take multiple screen shots)

put it in windows movie maker like as your making a vid then press play in windows movie maker and it will show it like a movie and it will be like its animated

You would have to take several screenshots of what you want to move, in different positions, and then save them. Open Windows Movie Maker and add the saved screenshots and place them in the timeline in order and click play. It should play as an animation, then export it as a animated gif or something.

NOTE: Using this method you have to use alot of screenshots for even small movements.
