How to Make a Camera Animation on the DSi

With the Nintendo's Flipnote software, DSi users can create their own animations, add sound and even share them with others. Users can create individual panels, then sequence them together to create an animated image, much in the same vein as a flip-book. Users can even do this using pictures taken with the DSi camera.
