	Got my second entry WIP here: http://i605.photobucket.com/albums/tt139/bearfish17/DancE_B31833.gif It's only half done. It will face left after those first four frames so it looks sorta charlie brown-ish, but do you think the legs look too fast?

	*Originally posted by Quake* It's really Fu"%ing me off that people accuse me of doing it, either though they have no evidence. You posted the evidence youreself, and weren't you caught ripping stuff before? Also, caramelldansen includes clapping your hands. Originally posted by Metaru* quake, what a piece of sht that you didn't even finished, not to mention you took the most over edited dancing animation in the net and just copied it. it doesn't even matter if that was an edit or not, its just crap, and gets worse with that lame excuse of not being able to finish it when you still have like 5 days to at least complete it. it would be the same sht if you took the peanut butter jelly icon and amde another edit of it. i don't even know why was allowed in the gallery. its a male character with the anatomy of a female, wich its so poorly shaded that seems that his ass is in the front, not to mention you totally failed to see where the torso should be. Agreed.

	lol, i just read it again and yh, i can see what you thought.. I meant the last part to be on a different sentence.. if you recall, probably not, but oh well.. Around 5 months ago there was a competition about something big being represented as something small.. He and i did the same idea, and he accused me of stealing his idea. The idea was to do a whale in a fish bowl.. I think he just has a grudge.. THe part "and they don't even match enough to be rip >.>" wasn't meant to be connected with the previous statement.

	Just with my experience with animation 1/10 of a second seems a bit too fast. I'm sure if it's done right, it will work just fine. My experience with video game animation is a bit slower and still created the desired effect. I usually go with 1/20 of a second. I could be wrong but a lot of the entries seem a bit spastic. No matter how hard I try; unless skipping frames; my entries look very fast. Then I'd loose animation detail (the piece would do less). Don't get me wrong, I'm going with this. Just looking for some input. Maybe I'm just out of my mind.

	i belive 1/10 is slow actually, where 1/20 is basically bullet time.. in other words, its a matter of taste, and in most cases every animation represents itws own unique context.

	@ Plyvinyl: I think it's really great. I love the swoosh and the motion. The skin color on the head could use some work. On the standard gray background it will look really washed out. Also, the pants have a darker outline than the jacket (dunno if it was purposeful). Maybe you could work to shade in between the outline and the main color? AND... separate note, I submitted something meant for the Weekly Challenge, but forgot to press "submit to weekly challenge." What do I do? Edited by adriprints - 20 February 2009 at 5:14am

	Adiprints, click on the edit button, and click it. Or hope that a mod notices it and puts it in anyway.

	I tried the Edit button, but the function to enter into the challenge isn't there. I guess I'll just hope that an admin notices it. Thanks for trying to help, though. And, I loved this challenge btw. Great idea.

	You could always try to delete it from your gallery and then resubmit. There should be a 'radio button' to check.

	redo it, make her actually move and do a real dance, instead of just switching sections of the image. its a 4848 image, you have unlimited colors tu use, its just 8 frames, and you still have a whole, full weekend to do it. don't limit yourself to such crappy level, force yourself and push your ability beyond the basic and necesary standards. and trust skamo, they do even add you to the challenge when you don't even want to, and then take you out leaving everyone confused sending me pms from alt accounts acusing me of cheating. not true.
