Any chance there's gonna be any subawards like best pico voice, most original pico design etc. I reckon that would be pretty cool. Doesnt have to be a money prize (tho im sure he has more in that piggy bank of his) but something like a daily award type thing, that goes next to the submission when its opened.

Give one to me, just because I'm better at animating than you are.

I think you jumped the gun a little bit...pico day is april 30th...unless its just a happy pico day like woo we're going to have a happy pico day in two months...anyway its just a loop, its alright, but its still just a loop.

Omg im doing a pico movie too! and flash keeps erroring and shutting down, so im not too happy, I'm saving every two seconds and then when I forget, it errors. Just wanted to share my grief.

ive had that before i was doing one of those weekly challenges and i had nothing else to do so was spending alot of time on it comp shut down and lost half my work so end result was crap.

mine only did it the once though.

Response to Pico Day 2007 2007-03-03 18:22:16


sorry to double post but im sure that when i put my v-cam diagonally it would still show you what it saw so the background would be tilted if you know what i mean im sure it used to do that but it wont now it distorts it.

anyway in this scene it starts with pico adjusting a camera and you see it from the cameras veiw does anyone have any tips on how to do that i was going to use the cam but that wont work how i thought it would.

if you dont know what im on about then ill try explain better.

I'm pretty sure that entry's are to be submitted either on the day of Pico Day, or about a one day difference.

Pico Day is April 30th, you have 2 months to make that a real animation and not just a loop.

Are there any requirements about recent flashers. Cause I've had an account for a little while, and haven't submitted anything. Is it okay to submit a contest as my first submission?

Also can you submit more than one?

P.S. If I'm asking in the wrong place for pico day sorry.

Of course it is.

For the contest? I'm not too sure, but most likely. But I'm guessing that if you make two, BOTH of them can't win prizes.

I think I know what you mean, and no, it never worked like that for me, so I think you're mistaken. And then I just tested it now and the screen was just distorted.

ok if that doesn't work then how can you animate someone moving the camera about like you do when your centering it on yourself but from the view of the camera so pico and the whole room would be moving about.

i have everything on different layers so i want to know if theres a better way of moving them

One way, and the most practical and obvious I think is to just put everything in one MC/Graph and tween that about, using the canvas as your guide for the 'cameras lense'.

Another is you could get a different V-Cam, one made more recently specifically as a Flash 8 extension. His site crashed not so long ago, and then David Firth began hosting the extension for him at Fat-Pie. Check it out Heeeaarr.

Looks like it'll be good.

I haven't been able to get much work done at all. I was hoping to do a lot over the weekend, but nooo, my teachers have to give me a math sheet, a social project, a social test, and a health test all on monday.

LOL... looks a bit like a Tintin in green. If you want, I have a cool spacey sci-fi building you can use. Here it is:

http://denvish.net/ulf/050307/40714_backgroun ds_pt1_finished.php

And if you do use it, co-authoring won't be necessary, just put my alias in the credits.

I remember Tintin! My dad used to read those comics I think.

Thats a very cool building, but sadly, I have no need for it. My animation, if it magically gets done in 2 months, is a chase/fight scene through outer space, no buildings, mostly rocks and stuff. :(

Whoa. Alot of competition this year. Heh. I haven't been working on mine lately, I may open flash soon. I don't know yet though.

Alright, big changes for my part!
I'm making an animated comic Pico!

This is a little quick test i made for it; ( Requires a good computer and latest flash )

Tell me what you think, i know the backgrounds a bit too shaky, but other than that.

Remember, don't f***ing rip my idea off!

I really like it, I was honestly thinking of a Comic-Based kind of animation for my Pico, but now I can't fix that now can I? Heh. I'll think of something else ^^

Nice work, man.

Can you guys do me a favor and submit my Pico loop to the collection there... That'd be appreciated. :)

It's already in the nominees for it. So you should get it. Hah, I added it to the collection page. So hopefully it will be added. :]]
