Ersatz Stop-motion animation

My Olympus SP510UZ has a 'timelapse' mode, where I could set it up on a tripod, fix the focus and exposure manually, and then have it take a photo every minute... producing amateur crap like this. :) (Click the full-size image for the 5MB animated GIF.)

 

I was inspired after a small webcomic started begging for money so the artist could buy the US$2000 worth of gear supposedly needed to make his own stop-motion animations-- after mentioning having a computer better than mine. Uh, somehow, 'a lack of intellectual vibrancy' was showing through there...

 

(Note: this_used_ to be an animation-- but Flickr killed the feature. :/)
