Those really just involve drawing a couple of frames and then programming simple behaviors to let the rest happen.

hey that reminds me, i was working on this http://fvs.blaststream.com/testapp/shar ... mario.html
late last year.
i did this drawing enging for a textbox, and was planning on recreating a playable version of the first level for mario 1, in a HTML textbox.
for now you can click start game, and move left, right and jump using the arrows. would need to animate the enviorment, and do collision detection, but its doable.

THIS is pixilation.

...And some darned fine pixilation at that.

Wow, that was cool! Poor babies at the end.

Here's mine. The quality sucks because I had to convert it to wmv. This is Salad Weener
What kind of animation is this called?

I'm not sure that's exactly why the quality sucks... LUDE?

That is pretty wacky and well-soundtracked!

I did a short 'animation' last year, called Occupational Health and Safety: Radios at work. It was for the Triple J PixelFreaks competition. Pick the music!

I guess I'll subject you to one of my animations. I made this ... in 2005 or 2006. I'm really not sure.

Please Sir

Here.

First day back at school after winter recess. Students were restless, so was I. Lots of reaction to my new face - beard slowly growing back after shaving it over break so that my 7-year-old could see what my face looks like without a beard. My wife had never seen my face either.

QOTD: No.

Does the waybackmachine on archive.org preserve flash files?

Not unless you release it to Creative Commons and then submit it to them before it disappears from the net, sadly. I lost a few songs that way.

Anyways... Here. My folks' new coffeeshop opened today to moderate crowds. A lot of people came after closing time, so they're talking about extending their hours.

The dog is looking much better now; thanks everyone who inquired privately. She's still old, but her tail's wagging again, and she's not panting anymore.

QotD: No.

QOTD: I used to do stop-motion animation with clay figures. It is all on super-8 film.

I've also got a few pixilated animations of Ross when he was little kid.

It's one of the old movies I made. Kind of a spoof of Gumby.

Oh, you have to get Blumpy uploaded somewhere. This sounds like a "must see".

Where did you get your animated avatar?

...and just to post this before Sausage Boy does - the greatest claymation of all time - Il Est Myron!

haha, Ray. Love how you pick the dick one.

My favorite is still the original

Caravan Ray · Post by **Caravan Ray** » Tue Jan 08, 2008 6:29 am

Are you old enough to remember The Red and The Blue? I suspect that was the main inspiration for Micallef's Myron.

The ABC used to show it all the time. Especially back when the ABC had the cricket. Whenever rain stopped play - The Red and the Blue would be trotted out.

If we're still talking pixilation, I saw this thing on youtube about a month ago. The part where the guy skateboards using the other guy is cool.

Tony vs. Paul
