I love this background, but I really don't like the non-anti-aliased  lines. Window, the desk, and the bush are all fine the way they are, but the door and the walls and shadows should be anti-aliased.

GUI isn't bad, but what would pick be used for? Take?

I am so god damn excited about this movie. But from what I've been hearing it's just ok, not genre changing. I'm going to be so disappointed.

It sort of reminds me of the Aqua Teen Hunger Force backgrounds, just without the whole cut and paste thing.

I thought they were all pretty funny. The absurd comedy that has been gaining popularity in webcomics is always going to be hit and miss. Every great comic has a bad one every so often. The ants one was almost there. I got the idea, but for something that simple, the drawing should be more of the focus. Like if the last frame was a super dramatic anime close up, it would be funnier.

I do think the mushrooms will get old, but you're a great artist Kinoko. You'll have no problem adding characters and comics and keeping them in the same style. I think it's great.

Oh my god, that stock cube idea is hilarious! How well did it work?

My favorite prank is more of an ultimate revenge. It's a horrible thing to do to someone and I wouldn't recommend doing it. But I figured I'd share anyway in case someone finds it helpful. :)

First you find their car, which is typically the hardest step. You'll need 4 or 5 jars of petroleum jelly, a bag of kitty litter and a big roll of saran wrap which you can get at most kitchen stores or bulk sale stores, maybe even Walmart. Cover their car in the jelly, getting the windows and handles as well as the body. I never do the tires because it could cause some driving problems. If you're really mean, put big globs on the windshield wipers. Then spread on the kitty litter getting it deep in the jelly. Then wrap up the whole car with the saran wrap making it one big petroleum car candy.

The one guy we got really bad took 4 hours to get his car clean enough to drive it and 7 drive through car washes to get off all the jelly. But I know that some of my friends got real revenge on some guy and he had to get a tow truck. Keep in mind it's best to do this when they're not at home and at a party or something. This may be cruel, but it doesn't really damage the car like shaving cream does. I've actually had neighbors come out and take pictures of us doing this because it was so damn funny.

The proportions are a bit off which will effect how your walk cycle turns out. Normal adults are about 7 or 8 heads high. Either this guy has a tiny body or a huge head. With tiny feet. The length of a foot is about the same as the height of the head. Textures are pretty good. Interesting and simple. I can connect to this character only because we dress the same. :p

Both aren't bad, but I think he curls too soon. If I were jumping, I probably wouldn't curl up or brace for impact that soon. Not that I wouldn't want to but I wouldn't have time. Sort of like those people that jump from bridges and flail their arms for ever until they nearly hit the water and then they pull them to their side.

Odd title for a portfolio. I'm on a super wide screen and the title repeats on the right. I'd put in a bit more information on each piece like how you made it, hours, maybe a few more pieces.

I'm pretty sure C.Lexsutin is dead...Or in someone's trunk...Or dressed as a gimp, locked in someone's basement...

My dad had his first stroke about a month ago. After I heard about it I was really worried, but it turned out to be not that big of a deal. Well, strokes are a big deal, but he's made almost a full recovery. But for being almost 60, it's great that he isn't worse than he his.

The best thing is to just support him and let him know you're worried about him.

I don't know if it's a Christmas thing, but with four kids it could be all of the sex he's having.

Quick! MrColossal's password has been stolen! Ban his account and BANISH HIM FROM DA INTERNETS FOR SHO!11 it's the only way to stop all of this madness! Don't ask questions, just destroy him before he can travel back in time to stop us.

Wow, this looks great. When I saw the first two conversions I thought, oh these suck, just stick with the painted, then I saw the final and it looks great. The pile of stones next to Indy and the pile of rubble in the bottom left corner aren't detailed enough and look blurry, but other than that the background is awesome.

Well, other than being very hard to navigate, it's pretty cool. I don't think a mass export wouldn't be bad. Export all of the frames at once.

Only major bug I found is when you edit curves and then go back to edit images, the image stuff doesn't load.

Edit: Also, the reason I bring this up is because it's awesome and I'd love to see it in a "non-improvable" form. It'd be SUPER helpful to Noobies, and even people like me who haven't animated crap.

When it comes to movies or games, noir can just mean stylistically dark and shadowy, not just a detective story.

Though most of the Booth Babes weren't that appealing (and by that I mean I found Sonic's dancing more erotic) it seemed like a very cool site. I'd totally buy a shirt with that octopus on it.

In Photoshop, there is a save for web option which optimizes files for the web, making them much smaller than saving them normally.

Audacity is still on beta, I think. Or at least it's newly released. You could always try downloading an older version. I use 1.3 Beta Unicode and it works fine.

I know that I am probably not supposed to crit the criticism but Evil that really just looks like White text with a massive stroke and drop shadow added. I think the original text was a lot more unique and interesting rather than looking like a quick photoshop redo.

The problem is a functionality issue. It's not legible, and it's way to small to read. I made it bigger and added a stroke just to show what the difference would be if it was larger and if the colors were flipped. Even if the text was larger, it's still hard to read and it's not spaced.

By background, do you mean the page background? I think white is fine, but you could do something like this.

Goldfish, a fish shaped cheese cracker snack, had an add they ran contest that if you found a cracker wearing sunglasses you'd win a big prize. Well, my cousin claimed she found, and when she ran to tell us, my sister ate it.
