Hello lorrey,

You could start by looking for the slideshow gadget or even the slideshow clock gadget.
If you were a talented programmer, then you could start making animation with pixel graphics by using the Java AWT or swing graphics libraries, and create your own App, for this purpose.

I think creating a rainmeter skin will be a lot easier.

Well, how do you justify that?

(A moon phase clock would be easier; a 28 day calendar could be made up out of only 6 photos.)
