I recently came across a blog that had taken a series of before, during and after pictures out of the blahh, and into the WOW by simply putting them together into a rotating gif file.

Rotating gifs (or animated gifs) are ubiquitous across the web and have been around since the dawn of images on the Internet. They are easy to make and don’t take up as much space as a flash file. Best of all, they may before, during and after shots really hit home. If a picture is worth a thousand words, an animated series of them is a book that tells the story of dramatic transformations.

Don’t know how to create a rotating gif file? It really is very simple, especially if you have Adobe Photoshop or Image Ready. Try this explanation, or do your own search for ‘how to create an animated gif’. If you still have trouble, a graphic designer should be able to put the pictures together for you in a series for under $100.
