Animations are .gif files, which are compatible for importing into Windows Movie Maker. However, many people seem to have problems getting the animations to work in the program.

I'm not exactly sure why they can't get the animations to work (there could be a number of reasons). It seems some .gifs work while others don't. This is likely due to programming formats that were used to create the animation originally.

In any case, if you are experiencing difficulty in getting your .gif animations to work, you might consider purchasing video editing software that provides for easier tasking of imported media. Or, if deciding to stick with Windows Movie Maker, substitute .gifs with creative transitions, effects of your own.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by 'moving photobucket pics'. If you mean GIF animations, then all you need to do is import them into Windows Movie Maker. Drag the animation down into the Time-line and extend it (drag it to the right). The animation only works after you drag it out on the time-line.
