We prefer the term slightly over-weight intellectual users whom are low on funds.

Pfft, I'm skinnier then you are.

Guides
So how do you guy about for planning out animation?
I used to use fully animated sketches but it was too time consuming so now I use something similar to story boarding in order to plan movements and other crap. Then after that I do the normal animation stuff on those frames and fill in the gaps. The gaps might have guides to get the proper shapes though.

Re: Guides

As of now, all I have to guide me is the sound I record in the beginning. It's a bad habit (animating from scratch), but it make it a heck of a lot more surprising when I'm done. Anyway, I haven't really had to do anything huge yet, so it's worked out.

15

I have one, I just rarely see him, plus my mother is always going through my room looking for drugs, alcohol, condoms, porn ect.

but yeah all you people come to Australia is good here

Yeah, we rule.

15 man i never drank till i was 16 but dont worry ive more than made up for lost time since

Underage drink
That sucks that your mom actually goes looking for stuff to take. If she found condoms would she take them? That's not very responsible parenting right there.
When I was your age, if I went to a party without some alcohol, my mum would actually give me some of hers to take with me.
I dont smoke weed, but my mum does sometimes.
Do you have like a private stash for all your hidden shit?

Harsh, but I guess it's just the way your mom deals with parenting. My mom didn't search my rooms, but if I ever fucked up, she would ground me from 3-6 months. That's right, 3-6 months.

I don't go home much.

It's Warm

Today its supposed to get up to about 70 degrees for basically the first time this year. I'm wearing some shorts and everything. Sadly, a bunch of guys are all going to the beach, but I have class. Its so tragic.

Wow, thats a quite a long grounding. Did you ever fuck up :P? My parents would ground me for a few weeks, take my PC away for a while and have some long talk thing :(. I've never let them find anything like that though >:D.

>OMG Hotness :O

Yeah, it's pretty hot over here. Not "shorts" hot but "drink ever few mins" hot :D.

Term Papers
Okay, so I've been up since 8 am yesterday writing papers, and its now 10 am here. About 4 rockstars later, I have about 18 pages done. I am fucking tired. This is the only thing keeping me going.

I've never been grounded. I dont think people here do it really. Probably some people do. Anyone in the UK been grounded?

Penicorn

They ever gonna make that plushy like they considered? I really think I might get one, at least as a gift for someone.

You have to admit, you're gonna get some funny looks if you buy a unicorn with a penis for a horn, that also has a smaller penis between its legs. We don't live in a society where nudity is generally accepted anyway. Even if the people of newgrounds are more willing to do things that aren't the social norm, when its online its not quite the same as if you're doing it in real life.

Weather

Wow, when the weatherman said it would be nice I thought he was just blowing chunks all over the screen and calling it good weather, but he was right! It's really nice out today. So-long computer, I'm playing street hockey!

FBF smooth or jump

Little thing i've noticed, some people liek to have theri character jump into different positions and some have them fbf perfeclty inbetween.

obviously the latter is best for those great with fbf and the former for those who are not that good ( or have high detail characters that make fbf hard)

so, which is better.
Jumping or smooth?

there's only one way to find out; FIGHT!

Nope, but all of my previous girlfriends have been. What's with that? Speaking of which, if we have the reg meetup in Bristol i'll let you all sleep with my girlfriend...

Simultaneously.

Awesome. That is possibly the most awesome chocolate I have ever heard of.

Jumping or FbF!
I reckon both are good but they have there different purposes with different people. Jumping is simpler to do but you can get a nice effect with it same with the FbF but it takes longer.
Jumping is good for those random moments of excitement IMO.

Punched! :D
I called a girl that person and then she asked what I called her so I replied saying "that person!".
She glared at me angrily so I raised both my arms in a typical manner and yelled hwa. So she punched me! :0 But I laughed because I felt no pain and had never come across that response to my talking before. Most people call me weird-o while my friends say their standard hello's but I didn't think someone would punch me over it :P

Battlefield 2 Easter Egg!
In BF2, dead people give you the finger! Try it out, next time you go kill someone look at their hands, it looks like they're pointing from a distance but when you actually focus on it you can see that it's the middle finger. That gave me a good chuckle, I found this when I was on a carrier and then a dead guy landed next to me. I had taken a screeny but I didn't save it properly.

i never watch the dynamite thing, onthe nmoon is ok but this new xombie chp... erm..

i was truly underwhelmed by it. yes, tyhe fbf was pretty nice but it juts felt like he was just advertising his stuff whilst giving you a very small amount of story to watch.

kinda like those games where you get one level then you have to buy the full thing to play it all.

it seems like chp 8 and 9 and probs even 10 could of been put into one flash, but instead were cut up to earn another NG award, posibility of movie of the week and a chance of movie of the month, thus winning moneys.

what was even cheaper was that most the sfx came from Duke Nukem 3D.

sadly, due to fanboyism, it's got a really high score and probs will end up with movie of the week and maybe even month. shame really, the earlier xombie chp's were so good.

Xombie
Needs less action, and more plot. Or less universes with all the plot combined into one effort. A book, a comic series and an animation and (am I right in saying?) a movie all on the same topic are all going to take tolls on the creative effort and dilute it.

Still. Nice episode. Real shame it's so short and the minigun effect looks so cheap... but I didn't mind the wait between episodes nontheless.

Hmm... Zombie Survival Guide... lack of Zombie animations in the portal bar this one...
Hmm...

I've watched the series since its humble beginnings and I love it. It was a bit more enjoyable way back when but its still good. It was such a Newgrounds-esque series, especially with the murder and torture of the Backstreet Boys.

Re: Nudity

I'm aware that nudity is more acceptable in other societies, I even talked about it today in Drawing II class. Still, we are a prude country do to our puritan heritage. And even if you can find novelty items with penises on them(such as this kids birthday cake I knew in high school) or does not make them any more socially acceptable.
