Just move your toplevel windows in a timer, 1 pixel at a time,  
until they are in position.

To do what they do on TV, usually requires very fast computers,
huge video memories, and some frame manipulation techniques,
like green screening.

But for some simple effects....just move the windows.

If you do everything on a Canvas type widget, it can be easier,
but you want something that does transparencies....like the Goo canvas. 

my 2 cents,
