In Windows Phone 7.5, you can't. Perhaps in 7.8? or 8? But not in anything we have currently.

I am trying to implement live tiles in my Windows phone 8.1 application. I saw nice feature in default Photos application. When on tile displaying large picture, it starting to "float" inside tile. Can anyone tell me how to achive this effect? I have read all info in the internet, but nowhere can find anything about that.
Here is what i am talking about:
If you're using Silverlight app, you can get this exact behavior using CycleTileTemplate to show upto 9 images.
If you're using XAML app, you can use notification queue (by calling EnableNotificationQueue in your TileUpdater object) to queue up to 5 tile updates, each containing an image, so that they'll be shown one after another. However, the tile updates do not slide as the Photos app. Instead they flip to show different queued updates.
Hey I am looking to make a windows 8 phone app that has a tile look and feel. I am not interested in making it pined to the start screen. I want an app that has it's own functionality in the tiles. Does anyone know how to make that layout - could someone point me in the right direction?
microsoft.phone.controls.toolkit dll supports a control named hubtile.
"The latest version of Silverlight for Windows Phone Toolkit provides Windows Phone HubTile control. This control can make your application stylish by adding animated tiles in it. HubTile can consist of an image, title, message or a notification. In this example we will represent HubTile in two different ways, Static HubTile and Dynamic HubTile".

I am trying to make a Windows Phone App. I could not find any resources about updating the tiles like it is done in people app. Is the people app having special features because the it is in-build?
If not they should be joining all the profile pics and showing as a new tile image every time a an update happens. If this is what happening, how is it been done, from the coding perceptive?
Thanks in advance.
If you mean the People tile, then no, you can't create a animated tile like that.
But generally you can create very custom tiles, and you can utilize the flip-functionality, and display two different tiles. If you run it as a background service, you can also update the image(s) every 30th minute.
I wrote a guide on how to create advanced tiles.
