That's okay, you gave it the rating it apparently deserves since it's been flirting on both sides of the "green line" of 3.00 all afternoon. I was hoping for better, but hey, I can always try again.

I think it might have something to do with it being well drawn, but not really having a story line/action. Like we get to see all of the characters and equipment, but they don't do a heck of a lot.

As a stand-alone piece it lacks anything to really draw the audience into it except for the small group, like yourself, who actually remember those toys. It's great as an intro to a series or something. Make up a story line like something along the lines of GI Joe or maybe something more relevant these days like tracking down small terrorist cells. If you go the latter route, I'd like to see both foreign and domestic cells catching the short end of the stick ;)

I know, I know, you said these toys didn't have a marketing story line like that. Well, now you can give them what they deserve ... bad guys who deserve and ass-kicking and who better to give it to them than ...

duh duh DUH

It was nothing more than an intro, an "OP", an opening sequence meant to look like the openings to cartoon shows.
In other words a trailer without me actually having to say "trailer", and if I died or otherwise were not able to make anymore, there is not the "coming soon" promise of a trailer. ~_^

For no plot other than the bits and pieces revealed in the intro (and the fact that I am not an art-school grad and draw with a glitchy, dying ball mouse) I accept 3.00 as fair. My next luxury purchase is a tablet, allowing me to do "onion skinning" FBF without it being too tedious, and with the voices and a story I hope my first real episode will be wearing Blue.

Heh, now that I have my shiny new sig in place I figured out what my next one will be.

7,890 Blams
3,456 Protects

I may have to pull basically the same thing I just did and stall Protects to get the Blams enough ahead lol From now I need 81 Protects and 1,097 Blams. I figure I'll cap Protects by Monday, then a week of just Blams will get me there .... hmmm after that, maybe a screenie of me stalled at 12,345 on the top 50 list ... geez I wish I had thought of all this stuff earlier lol

I never had that convo with anyone. That is so obviously fake it is pathetic.

How's everyone this fine summer evening? Hooking up with a friend after work for some Chinese food. Mmmmmm. I'll be ordering an entire plate of chicken fried rice and a large bowl of won ton soup.

Well duh. The person spancker was talking to said she was your niece. Spancker never said it was you, and he never believed it either.

LOL I'm such a moron! I completely forgot I had Photoshop and have been jumping through hoops editing files with a bunch of other programs. Heh, now i have all these ready pics to use on people.

Let me just say this about Photoshop

Nah, just a bud of 25 years (lol). We're gonna chow down then waste a few hours on some video games. We normally go head to head on 'Syphon Filter 3'. We're both good at it so we have some pretty intense fights. It's funny when my buddy gets pissed. He'll run after me shooting every available weapon he has at his disposal, and if he runs out of ammo he'll pull out the knife (he's deadly with it). We have to watch our laughter doesn't get too loud as I live in the basement suite and we both have deep voices. Can't wait to start now that I've been talking about it.

It's unlikely I'll get to use this one anytime soon in context so ... here's another ...

Haha! Hey X, do you like the teletubbies? I found a cool site that literally hates them. Check out this gif (I saved three of 'em). I guess this is how you make a teleburger.

Oh thats good Recon enjoy and be sure to keep the noise level down to a lower than normal volume. Dont want you to be carried away due to volume trouble lol....

Have you seen Telebubby Fun Land? It's an anti-Teletubby wbe page made by Tom Fulp himself. If you like anti-Teletubby webpages you should like this, even though the Flashes there are very basic compared to the stuff we see here today.

It doesn't look like there is much at all between his genital area and that guys ass...

And anyway, is that guy even really a soccer player (assuming that's the sport he's pictured in)? He seems to be more of a camera person - he sure has done enough poses...

that's not a bad score for a first movie =)

I'm nearing a monumental moment in blams. So far I'm at 1334 blams. 3 more and it's time for a screenie.

Actually it's real football. REAL football uses a ball that's the right shape and doesn't involve armor =P If you look at the picture, he's standing next to the guy and has him by the scruff of his neck. What you can't see in that pic is that he's actually manhandling the guy over to the ref to make sure he gets yellow carded for running into the goalkeeper (namely himself). So, not only did the guy get the snot kicked out of him by running flat out into the a wall named Oliver Kahn, the wall picked him up and started dragging his ass down the field.

THAT is the GK and team Captain for Bayern M&#252nchen (about time I checked to see if ascii works here lol) and the Deutschland Mannschaft (German National Team). He, well ... let's just say he tends to get expressive during matches, which makes for a lot of good photo ops for the press corp.

Got any shots of that wonderful night in Munich in September 2001, maybe captioned "even bloody Heskey's got one now" with the famous 5-1 scoreboard shot in the background?

Bloody hell, I'm rumaging through FC Bayern's site ... that just won't do lol

When you said 2001, I presumed you meant the Champions League, which Bayern won tyvm =P Once we got on the same page on what I was supposed to be looking for, I managed to find nothing but text on the match. Of all places I figured FA would have a copy of the picture achived someplace, but I've come up empty. Bundesliga, FA, UEFA, Google, CNN/SI, fan-sites, betting sites, you name it, I hit it. Nothing but text. Oh well, not that big a loss to me ;)

I managed to find this pic of the 5-1 win, but it's not the best.

Hey How would I get my BLAM/SAVE rank displayed when I post on here??? I see lots of people showing off their ranks and want to learn how.
