2011 Imaged from Singapore on 16 October 2011 at 18:15 UT, note Io flying away.
Rotation over 4 hours on 15 to 16 October 2011, with passage of Io and its shadow.
The animation below was made from several images of Jupiter taken by Jean-Yves Beninger from Singapore on 15, 16 and 17 October 2011. Each image was projected to a cylindrical map using Winjupos. A mosaic of the cylindrical images was assembled with Photoshop PS2. The resulting cylindrical maps were converted back to 360 individual spherical images and assembled in GIF Animated images.
The animations below were made from several images of Jupiter taken by Jean-Yves Beninger from Singapore. Each image was projected to a cylindrical map using Iris, a free software developped by Mr Christian Buil (http://www.astrosurf.com/~buil/ ). A mosaic of the cylindrical images was assembled with Photoshop PS2. The resulting cylindrical maps were converted back to 360 individual spherical images and assembled in GIF Animated images. The original animations are 400 pixels by 400 pixels. The animations presented here are GIF animated images resized down to 300 x 300 pixels.
Note the amazing differences over a thirteen months span! Link to individual images of JupiterEvolution of the red spot on Jupiter over fiveyears:

2010 Imaged from Singapore on 23 November 2010 at 15:00 UT
Detail of the revival zone
Rotation over 4 hours on 23 November 2010
The same side of Jupiter 2 months apart. Notice the South Equatorial Band revival. The band is actually still there but covered by Methane clouds which are now dissipating, showing the band under it... Jupiter is smaller, 80 million kilometers farther away.
Interesting comparison two months apart, features are changing, Jupiter is smaller, farther away. In September, the Sun, Earth and Jupiter were almost aligned, now Jupiter has moved around and the sun shines slightly from the left(the right limb is now darker and the left limb lighter. Jupiter rotation over 3 hours on 22 November 2010

2009 Animation over 4 hours, 15 minutes between frame.
In this animation, you can see: Io on the left appearing and going away quickly, Ganymede on the left going over Jupiter, Europe shadow transiting Jupiter and Europe appearing over Jupiter on the right and moving away See below the same movie flattened to see the track of all satellites.
