in the meantime:

1. simple screen capture programs are a dime a dozen these days, and have 
served me well enough for low-res images. OSX has nice built-in capture 
functionality (look in System Preferences:Keyboard:Shortcuts).

2. there is also software to capture an actual animation from a Web page, with 
varying degrees of success.  SnapZ Pro comes to mind 
(<http://www.ambrosiasw.com/utilities/snapzprox/>) but it might be OSX-only.  
and of course, any software like this requires user involvement for 
installation, etc.  you can Google for "screen capture animations".

3. Re PowerPoint in particular, check out this Jmol users list thread:  
<http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=11843977>  it might give 
you ideas...
