Are you talking about the animation of the image? Meaning, are they animated gifs? If so, there are a lot of free software out there for making an animated gif and all you need to do is to use your friends (yahoo, google, ask, answers, bing) to search for it.

Now, if you are talking about making it move, you can load it into an image box and then alter the left and top properties, say inside a timer and once again, use your friends...

Good Luck

Then you might want to switch over to using a webbrowser control as animating gifs in an RTB might be nearly impossible. (Mark those words... nearly impossible if not impossible.)

I'm going to suggest that you go over to either http://www.tek-tips.com and place your question in the VB 5/6 forum (forum # 222) and hope strongm replies or go over to http://www.vbforums.com as it has a lot more traffic and posters who might have a solution.

Good Luck
