Nice idea, maybe somone could post a background pic (eg mountain's) and we could just add to it over a few pages, and the submit it to deviantArt.

Or we could make something similar to Fuzzes last few threads, so you start with a base, and build up gradually :).

One thing that some people fail to realize is that flash is not truly meant as a professional quality animation tool. Regardless it has been branded it is still a tool thats intended purpose was to make websites with interaction. This could be either through flash menus or through an entirely flash based site that has animation within it(such as transitions). It was never meant as something to be used to make full length episodes of TV shows.

you are wrong flash was an animation program which evolved into a web design
thingy like buttons and stuff were added only on flash 3. pico was one of the first
internet games that i saw as a kid on the second grade....flash his not a web design
tool it his an aninting tool...

and i don't think 3d will take over i know at least not on the internet beacose it can't have
the nice cartoonish style and 3d takes ages to do so 2d will always rule the web...

Re; 2d animation

i don't think 2d animation will ever disappear. look at cartoons on T.V today we have the means to create 3d animation 4 cartoons but 2d is still predominant. I think 2D is here 2 stay.

In other news

I broke my collar bone in 2 places snowboarding. Funny it was such a fluke. suprisingly it doesn't hurt to bad just might have to have surgery, which sucks i had reconstructive surgery on my elbow and I remember how much that sucked. my only real complaint is that i can't animate 4 8 weeks, all i had was lip synching left to =\.

oh well wanted to get that out of my system. And its hard typing jst with my left hand.

Don't worry about him. Everyone should be well aware that Sothink wouldn't contact you by AIM to give you a free copy. And seriously, from someone with the word "alt" in it is really not fooling many people.

Test my riddles
After seeing some riddle site, i decided it looked like fun and wanted to make my own. I'm going to do like 100 levels and then officially "release" it. They're not riddles in the traditional sense and you need some common sense to be able to do them.

It's not designed to be a 5 minute sort of thing. Sometimes the levels require thinking to complete. Anyway, I've done 11 levels so far and i'm constantly adding to them. You guys can be my guinea pigs and make sure there's none which you think are too impossibly hard. If you need hints/the answer because you give up on one, PM me or ask in the thread.

Start here.

It's designed to be hard. Just read all the clues carefully and think about what they might mean.

Lol, once you work that one out you'll be kicking yourself for not getting it sooner :P

If I'm allowed to give hints: Google might help once you figure out the first step.

i know its binary. Since the image is called binary and he has 1's and 0's on his head. I just cant find a combination on numbers that will convert into text.

If you can't see any binary, perhaps there's something which represents binary?

It's 3 that I'm stuck on. The only thing I can notice is that in the text version it says "simple" and in the image it says "simpler" :(

No. Its not. Don't argue. You are wrong. To quote Wikipedia:

"Since its introduction in 1996, Flash technology has become a popular method for adding animation and interactivity to web pages; several software products, systems, and devices are able to create or display Flash. Flash is commonly used to create animation, advertisements, various web-page components, to integrate video into web pages, and more recently, to develop rich Internet applications."

It is not meant to be used to produce large scale animations. Its for web development. Thats why it is able to compress and reduce file sizes so much. That is why newgrounds adopted it, because it is much easier to upload flash files because of their lower quality and smaller file sizes.

Yeah, that was a mistake. I spent ages making that image and then found out i had a spelling mistake but couldn't be bothered to remove it from the picture. I'll do that before i officially 'release' the game.

Clues for level 3:
If thats all you've seen, think about where else on the screen clues could be hidden. Also, think about why there's a reflection of the paragraph and what it might represent.

I might add an extra clue's page on the site.

I've got one of those already on level 8 (Thats a toughy!). I've only written 11 levels, but there will be a few more levels like that. Also, if anyone wants to help write riddles i'd appreciate it greatly and give you credit on a credits page. I'm aiming for at least 100 levels when it's finished.

No it's not. "Sometimes things are more simple than they seem." Read the title of the document. What do you think it means?

One has a capital i, one has an l. Took me a while to work that out too. Hey, that could have a riddle made out of it somehow.

Anyway, here's hints for levels 1-5. Don't read unless you need to:

Level 1:
If you can't get this level, perhaps this game is not for you. The main clue is to "highlight the problem". Think literally.

Level 2:
The obvious clues you have are the picture of a guy with one's and zero's on his head and .html written on the end of the suspicious looking LOLOl sequence. For more clues, look around the page more at all options (i.e. what the picture is saved as and the title of the page).

Can't see a sequence of 1's and 0's to translate? Think about the suspicious arrangement of 1's and 0's.

Level 3:
Look at the title: "SAVE yourself from the IMAGE". Notice the key words, save and image. It's not actually saving the image that's important, just seeing what it's saved as.

Now note that the image is backwards. Is there anything else backwards?

Level 4:
Look at the file name of the picture and use it with the picture itself, the text and the title to work out the answer. If you don't know much about the sport, you might want to do a bit of research. What does the ball rest on?

Level 5:
The clues are the title, and the text which seems to be going on about the background colour. 16 fingers instead of 10 is a clue to use hexidecimal. If you don't know what this is, research it and you should figure out what to do.

Thats all the clues you'll get from me at the moment.

This post was going to have a point to it, which I have temporarily forgotten.

RE: Cybex's Amazing Riddlesness

I was stuck on that because I kept using the first string of "binary" in the translators.

Now I'm stuck on the yellow page, I have no idea what to do (by changing the code, I know, but what is 16 and 10 referring to?)

apologies if I gave anything away

I finally worked it out, it was much simpler than I thought it was. lol :)

I don't exactly get the one after the yellow taxi. It's really confusing me, because I'm not sure if I'm on the right page, or if it's about your website. Haha, this is weird.

The "Something's Not Right"? Because I can't figure it out either, I've tried sequencing the image file names to no avail :(

I swear I'm retarded... I'm still stuck on the Binary one -_-

LOLOL = Normal

Examine only the odd sequence of lol's.

Trunks showed me what I had done wrong, but now we're both totally stuck on the next one. Can you give a better hint than the one on there (which is non-existent).
