<div class="IPBDescription">make stickman animations</div> I'm going to quote Jogn845 from the Jurassic Rage forums.

<!--QuoteBegin--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->this program is SO Coool, make your own stick animations/gifs with ease. SO easy to make trust me, and its fun too man.

<a href='http://www.snapfiles.com/get/stickfigure.html' target='_blank'>Pivot</a>

theres an msn community for it here, u can post ur movies there if u like also

<a href='http://groups.msn.com/Pivotanimation' target='_blank'>http://groups.msn.com/Pivotanimation</a>

i want to see ur guys attempts on this!


*EDIT*
<a href='http://groups.msn.com/Pivotanimation/documents.msnw?fc_p=%2FStick%20Figure%20Files%20%28%2Estk%29&fc_a=0' target='_blank'>Stick Weapons/Characters</a>

    Awesome. I got a new toy to play around with tonight. :D

    And that snapfiles site is good too. They got some handy other stuff on it as well.

    [edit]
    Please upload the stick weapons somewhere where I don't have to sign in to crappy msn which I don't have.
    [/edit]

    [edit2]
    Here's my first attempt. I call it "#naturalselection ops". :D

    As for mine, wasn't looking for funny though....was trying something out. Sadly I used too many frames and it made it slow <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    BTW guys, get a freakin gif optimizer. your gif's shouldn't be so omfghuge. Pivot by default saves them uncompressed, which makes them grow at insane rates. My animation was the longest on here and it was only 20k.

    Here's another one I did. A little bit messy and slow, but deal with it, I ain't used to Pivot since I usually animate in ImageReady, and Pivot doesn't have any fixed FPS value until you save it.

    BTW, I couldn't be arsed to do GIF compression, but next time yeah I will <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    And now presenting...KICKEH!

    theres another program out there for making gifs, called gif construction set professional. you can do pretty much everything you need to in the evaluation version, except it takes forever to load up because this lady always tells you to register. but yea i made a few things in that.

    <img src='http://members.cox.net/reader1/domosurf.gif' border='0' alt='user posted image' />


    with that program you can open up any gif, and edit the pictures of each frame. pretty cool program.


    if your wondering, the gob sight referred to in the top picture is linked in my sig, but the admin is having some problem with vietcong fanboys and hes taken a break. theres still site information, just forums are down.
