I've read tutorials, I've tried many times to make them, I'm still having a hard time making walking animations. I understand them pretty well until I actually need to do them, then I suddenly forget everything I learned. The result is always a terrible animation. Heres the sprite I'm trying to animate:  Here's the first frame, which turned out terrible. I can't possibly continue it the way it is:  Walk animations just confuse me so much, so if someone could help me somehow it would be great. |

| I've read through that, and many other tutorials. They just don't help for some reason. |

Have you also read http://www.manningkrull.com/pixel_art/tutorials/walking.asp - ManningKrull's tutorial ? At this point, I don't think there's anything we can do other than pointing out tutorials. Perhaps you could show us one of your earlier attempts? ------------- |

 Here's an attempt I made a while ago at a walk animation. I read that other tutorial before, but that was a while ago, so I think I'll read through it again and see what I can make.

*now the link works :)
yeah, i think the problem is that youve got to few frames. one thing i noted in manningkrull's is that the foot forms an oval motion :O
how stupid am i for not noticing that before :(

That ManningKrull tut is great. I think your attempt there isn't bad. Arms movements and head bobbing always help in the illusion of a walk it seems to me.
