c# - How to use a HubTile for the Application Tile

Question

I would like to add some animation to my main application tile when it is pinned to the start screen, and was wondering how this is possible. I've thought about creating a HubTile in my CreateApplicationTile() method, but I do not know if this is possible or how this would be accomplished? Any suggestions?

MainPage.xaml.cs

public void CreateApplicationTile()
    {
        BitmapImage bitmap = new BitmapImage();
        bitmap.UriSource = new Uri("/Background.png", UriKind.Relative);

        HubTile tile = new HubTile
        {
            Title = "ShareSky",
            Source = bitmap

        };

        var appTile = ShellTile.ActiveTiles.First();

        if (appTile != null)
        {
            var standardTile = new StandardTileData
            {
                //Title = "ShareSky",
                ////BackgroundImage = new Uri("Images/SecondaryTileFrontIcon.jpg", UriKind.Relative),
                ////Count = 13, // any number can go here, leaving this null shows NO number
                //BackTitle = "ShareSky",
                ////BackBackgroundImage = new Uri("Images/ApplicationTileIcon.jpg", UriKind.Relative),
                //BackContent = "Click Me!"                    
            };

            appTile.Update(standardTile);
        }
    }

This is not possible to do for Windows Phone 7.5. This is something planned for Windows Phone 8
