is there a basic easy way of putting animations on a website

I've got a student who needs to be able to create a very very basic animation (as a small part of a lot of other stuff for a project) - we are using Corel Paintshop and Publisher - suitable to put online.


Now, the college won't payout for further programmes. We have Publisher, Word, Powerpoint and Corel Photopaint

The animation is very basic and it's easy to create graphic for the slides needed in Corel. We then have to add timings - which is easy in Powerpoint BUT this is a problem to use on a website.

So .... is there a way round it using the programmes we have?

or is there a free downloadable programme that would do the job?

We don't actually have to upload it - just show screenprints with timings etc



I'd be very grateful for any help with this

Thank you
