Here's my attempt (made in about 5 minutes)

Boxes start off at somewhere between 1x1 to 55x55, reducing over time to somewhere between 1x1 to 5x5

Thats well good. You should make it so it starts off so less squares are made every frame though because otherwise it starts looking like the picture too early in my opinion.

It does :P as the squares become smaller, it does more per frame since the smaller ones are less intensive to work on, but i keep it as high as possible so that you don't need to wait ages.

Oh as if they'll keep that. I can only imagine Hollywood's idea of ruining that scene. A formal letter of apology, I imagine.

What do you mean?

Inbetweening means adding more frames between the keyframes. It's like tweening but manual, it will make the movement smoother and more natural.

@ Deltaluca - That's really cool, way to show people up :P.

Life is good

Spurs are top of the table, and England reclaimed The Ashes. Everything is alright with the world.

yeah it is, but the movements are too big, like with the jaw and eyebrows.

vacation

I'm havin fun at Wildwood, NJ for the weekend. Anyway, i got bored and decided to make a character. Now i have a new platformer idea. Here's the sketch of him.

Eye Sigs
I feel vulnerable, you can see my soul.

I feel tempted to make a eye sig, but...

Mine is still the greatest.

Yours does have quite the pizazz.

I'm not really a 10 year old latino boy, but I thought these eyes best fit the original.

You just so happened to have a stash of pictures of 10-year old latino boys laying around?

Something isn't right there. I call Voodoo.

Leeds are also top, though Charlton have same goal diff and C>L so they're #1 at the mo. Silly, we've conceded an entire 1 less goal than they have - how is that fair? An entire 1, not one of those silly half goals even.

I remember playing with that a few years back, but they've added like 10 or 15 objects to it.
Nice find.

charcter
cool
eyes
cool i might do one two..but my eyes change colors quite a lot and one eye changed a bit more then the other. So now one of my eyes is a bit greaner and the other is more bluish..weird i know =]

Via google I guess I have a "stash" of trillions of pictures. And this latino boy is standing.

Im back and also a thought i had..

I had a thought that crossed my mind just now and i was interested in reading everyones opinions.
Would you marry someone who is in the same line of work as you?

I was just thinking about how I might find it annoying if my wife was a designer or flash animator like me. Like I might find it annoying having my wife peer over my shoulder and give me criticism. On the other hand, i could see how someone might find that really valuable.

For the sake of an example, Tom's wife, April is a programmer for a firm, and Tom is a programmer... ive never bothered to ask him about it but i wonder if she shoots down his pico 2 ideas or somethinnn or is like Tom your code is so sloppy hon.

Anyway whats your take on it? Yea yea i know the whole love is blind bullshit but im just curious if you'd find it be distracting.

At 8/24/09 02:15 PM, Luis wrote: April is a programmer

Tom really is the luckiest man alive.

Personally I think I'd like having a partner who's in the same line of work as me, that way you can toss ideas around with them and stuff. My friends gf is staying with us atm since her housemates haven't moved in yet; we all talk about programming, games, science, religion.. nerdy shit, and she just sits there and doesn't really engage in the conversations half the time which is really annoying :/

In general, yes I would. But as I'm doing a maths degree, i would hope not.

I think the question of marriage and profession is a tough one, but what I have been very wary of is ever getting into a situation where I lived and worked with a girlfriend or wife. I don't think that would last being with someone at work then at home and never really having that space.

But I absolutely think that whatever you're doing your spouse should be interested in. Fiance is a marine biologist and since I am a diver we get along fairly well, and she's also very supportive of my games so everyone gets along.

jack black has crazier expressions than that

No the amount youve moved is fine but its too much of a jump between point A and point B.

At 8/24/09 02:15 PM, Luis wrote: I don't have a wife

Even if my girlfriend was a musician/animator/shitty programmer it'd piss me off because she'd be constantly criticising me, and I can see why people would find that useful but I prefer to find my own way around things and improving things.

Also, what do you guys want to see in a platformer. I've got acceleration and deceleration, wall jumping. By the way, this is just player based - nothing about enemies.

I work with my wife. She does more coding sorts of stuff, and I do flash, 3d, and music things, but we both do design. We can both be legendary assholes, but it's always short-lived. I'd rather be doing it this way, than for some soulless firm full of "experts", who wear nerdy glasses, collect ugly trainers, smoke smelly fags, and bending over for an AD who thinks he spray farts roses.

I like working with my dad.

I think i'd like to be with someone who's in a similar line of work, however not the same thing. If i was a 2D animator for a living, It might get annoying with someone always going "hey, you should do it like this!" after a while, even if it was me saying that, i could just tell the other person could become quite annoyed.

However, if for example the lady friend was a 3D artist and i was a 2D artist, that would make things much different, and even fun. Cuz then you could teach each other the opposite thing without being underminded at your own.

Even if she was a painter or something, she could help the animator with his 2d art and he could give her tips on . . . bringing action and movement to a still picture! XD maybe..

Well, thats my 2 and a half cents, was it decent?
