Anyone REALLY good with screen captures and animated GIFs?

I want an animated avatar that has a Terran Dropship (this is all from starcraft) dropping off a Siege Tank somewhere. The tank then sieges, the turret rotates, and fires. The screen then pans to an image of a group of Zerglings getting blown to bits. The words "OWNED!" appear on the next frame and stay that way until the image resets.

I'd do it myself, but I'm not very good at screen captures, and I want it to be perfect.

125x125, please. Thanks.

Starcraft can't save replays?

Good point. The main problem would be getting everything to happen the way i want, though.

well once you get everything to happen the way you want it and saved into a replay, download a little freeware program called Animget. What this little guy will do is take tons of screen shots practically every 10 milliseconds of your active window. But what's really cool about it is it only saves the screenshot if it's changed from the last one.

Then once you have all the screens you can dump them into a GIF file using something like Photoshop Elements (what I use), Flash, Fireworks, of course all these cost money, but I know there's got to be something on the internet that does it for free.

I will warn you though, it's VERY time consuming. Hope I was a help

EDIT: Woah... didn't see this was THAT old. My appologies for bumping this.
