Weekly Challenge #4: 1 Object, 2 Perspectives - ZPM (SGA/SG1) - and a technical ask

[mific]

Title: Rodney's Treasure (on my DW)
Artist: mific 
Rating:  SFW (G)
Fandom:  Stargate Atlantis, SG1
Characters/Pairings:  implied Rodney off-screen making grabby hands
Content Notes: digital artwork. I relied heavily on several photo references, mostly this great 3D modelling by chiletrek on Deviantart, and also on photos of "real" ZPMs from the show, from Stargate Wiki. 

Linked with this, I wanted to make it into a gif but my giffing software is old and crappy so I had to put that idea on hold. I mean a gif as in an animation made from images, not pulling a gif out of video footage). What do you guys use to make animations? Is there a good free programme or on-line thing out there that doesn't force you to advertise the programme? Or if there's not, I'd settle for a cheap paid programme as well. Any suggestions welcome!

Heh, I know! Some of those props were very manky looking.
