Default Is there an animation to expand/contract a picture?

Hi! First post here.
I want to emphasize one picture from a grid of photos by having the picture move from its spot on the grid to the center of the screen, while simultaneously growing larger.
Then I want to return it to its original size/position. I have scoured the animation settings and user forums, to no avail.
I can't think of a name for this effect, but it doesn't seem all that unusual of an idea.
Can anyone help? Or... could you help if I were being more clear ?

Thanks very much.

Motion path. then Grow/Shrink with Autoreverse turned on, then Motion path back. You will have to move/resize the motion path arrows.

In 2007 and previous PC versions, it is Custom animation, motion path.

Choose any straight line. Move and resize the arrow to suit.

Arggg... unfortunately, it seems there's no "Motion Path" available for Mac users. Any other possibilities?

I'm sure sorry to hear it. I read that while v 2008 cannot generate a motion path, they can view them. It made me wonder if v 2008 can edit/copy them. I'm attaching a file with what I think is the effect you want. I know it seems unlikely, but what the heck. You should give it a try.
I saved it as a v 2003 figuring that would be best to try.
