The barman is there anything you can do with my little dog ,may be a couple of tear drops comming out of both eyes as to make it as sad as you can get,just about as sad as me thumbsup.gif
[right][snapback]571809[/snapback][/right]

Aww warden, how sad! It's possible of course but I'm not the only animator here, Dot is first but perhaps one of the others will give yours a go....

I was just wondering if you could help make me a button for my forum(Aggie's funzone)

I've been told it needs to be 88x31.

Its for being affiliated with someone...hope that makes sense guys...hope you can help me out.
[right][snapback]572173[/snapback][/right]

I'm sure one of us can do that Alice, but we mainly do animations, someone in the signature thread might be able to help, or even start up a new thread especially for it and have a competition???

Yes, I must agree...but do you know what I do to make it all choppy? I take a very large picture of just flames on the net. I suggest google it on images. Then I take just chunks of the picture, and set that as the avators background. And since the background is like 110 to 110 pixels, and you take a picture like 1000 to 1000 pixels, you can have like...1, 2....over 80 different backgrounds grin2.gif .

Its like a multiplication table. Imagine the entire the picture as a multiplication table, and puting a frame in each square '110-pixels' laugh.gif .

Mr. Fahrenheit
Well, if you wanted to use this, I've had this for a while, it might help a little with Kratos' thing.
Can i get my icon to have flying monkeys swoop in and steal the words 'damn them' after a while?
Triniant
Hey __Kratos__ , tell me what you think about this one:

I like the head moving idea. Would be quite jolting, no?

1. alien pooping out of stomach

i assume you mean "popping"... that would be the easiest of the three, but still quite hard.
QUOTE
2. moves head, eyes towards camera, eyes lite up

We'd have to completely construct the face ourselves for every frame... very difficult to do. It would be nearly impossible to do with MS Paint... even photoshop
QUOTE
3. body burst into flames

Flames are very hard to animate... especially bursting flames.

sorry roswell man
Mr. Fahrenheit
Jesus Freak it's awesome!
Thanks Very much.
It's what I wanted, but I just thought of something. Could you make it look like the letters are gathering up in his arms?

The Roswell Man, I have to agree with Jesus Freak by saying that those options are very difficult to achieve personally, though I will give it a shot and see what I can do. If you happen to find another pic you would like to use or have any other ideas, please share, thanks.

BTW Jesus Freak, nice work with the monkeys. Reminds me of the Wizard of Oz for some reason grin2.gif .

Oh yes the Bigfoot thing, sorry I've been away with work for the past week so I've had no time nor computer access to do it, currently he picks his ear and blinks but it still needs some tidying, shory while and it'll be done.

Same goes for Dot, sorry hun it'll be summertime before springtime Dot is finished laugh.gif

(Kidding, it'll be ready soon as I can get my boss off my back long enough...)

How about something keeping her alive, but I dunno, make it 'spy-ish'... =\
Triniant
This one isn't really spy-ish.
user posted image

Let me know what you think about it and if you want I can continue to try and make one fitting your description. It is a broad term so if you can give me a better idea of how you want it to look, that would be appreciated, thanks.
thebarman
Triniant - If I may be so bold as to offer some advice, you're using a program which can do things myself and UniversalAbsurdity can only dream of while still using Windows Paint but they arn't really keeping with the theme of the avatar.

Flashy effects are all well and good but if it was me a simple blinking, maybe hair waving in the wind and a smile would be more appropriate here. Making her head explode or engulf in blue flame might be a little over the top huh.gif

Just a suggestion thumbsup.gif
Triniant
I respect the honesty and yes I "can" and "do" get carried away sometimes blink.gif , so now that has been pointed out, I will keep it within the requests made thumbsup.gif .

As far as Janiel's avatar is concerned, maybe you can use your expertise and fix something up for him. Eye blinking, hair waving, and/or smiles (or the face in general) are not my strongest fields, but I am learning and experimenting.

BTW, Windows Paint plays the biggest part in my animations grin2.gif .

Thanks for being "bold", it's appreciated.
TheBlueDragon
can you do something with this barman?or someone?
BurnSide
That's some really amazing animations nethertheless right there!
Janiel
Alright, since that didn't go over very well, and I kinda wanted something...different. Try this:


See if you can't color her in.


Colored Pic.

Thanks. =D

I can colour her in, but there are 34 frames in that animation each needing at least four colours, yellow, black, green and flesh. It would take some time to do which I haven't really got right now....but it is possible thumbsup.gif
Amalgamut
Hey thebarman, can you by any chance "water mark" a picture of mine I have? To keep people from copying it?

I think you may, but if you sent it back to me, im not sure how I would be able to copy it (hence its watermarked.)

If its possibly let me know.

Thank you.
