here's an animatedGIF to show what it is I'm trying to create here. It's an effect that's commonly seen in many cartoons (especially anime). The problem is, I haven't the slightest clue how to create a series of images that would create a background such as this. I tried playing around with the various gradients, but photoshops got so many options, that it kind of feels like I'm searching for a needle in a haystack. Can someone tell how I can create a motion background such as the one in the GIF I posted above, using photoshop or some other program? Or better yet, can someone tell me if it's even possible without having some kind of extensive knowledge of animation?
