See, just another thing in a long list of things to tick me off! They knew I was on vacation and had referred you as my replacement!

Guy told me a funny story one time...seems there was this village idiot that everyone used to kind of tease, he was pretty old from what I gathered from the story. At any rate, he had mowed some womans yard and the *lady* stiffed him, in other words said he did a crappy job and refused to pay him. So this guy goes to the local coffee shop and is muttering about that dang woman this and that dang woman that...one of the other townsfolk thought he'd try and be funny and said, "what's all this talk about a woman? You gettin' married?" to which this fella shouted loud enough for everyone to hear, "YEAH, I'm marrying my ass, you want to kiss the bride!"

Well, I thought it was pretty funny......

I wouldn't touch that one with a ten foot . . . on second thought, I'd better not finish that one. It would open this thread up to reaching even newer highs in low.

Henry, would it be possible to animate my cletis? (My avatar Randy, don't *even* start!) What kind of program do you use to do something like that? Maybe instead of playing unwinnable games at gamesville I could try and fix it up. Kuoh found a pretty funny wav file for cletis too...it'd be cool if there was a way to click on the avatar and hear it, while he's waving or something. Not that it'd be easy mind you, (for me), I didn't even have the program to shrink the thing properly.

Words fail me eddycat!!

If I wasn't fairly sure you are at least 110% male, I would be notifying this post to The Moderator. At the very least you could have used a capital C.

He will no doubt be along soon in his new animated Pearly white.

Wish me luck tomorrow. I am due in @ 8 AM to get my SVX through the NCT {our National Car Test}

If they ask, I am going to tell them that the Japanese have inscrutably limited the car to one gear so they can keep the speed down to their national limit of 112.

Think they'll buy it??

Joe

animation

Anything's possible, just depends on how much time you want to spend on it


For my animated gif, I used adobe photoshop 6.0 + adobe imageready 3.0

I made about 20-30+ frames (pretty large amount) in an attempt to make the wheels looking smooth when they move.


All you need to do is to find any sort of paint prgram that can save to gif format.

create serveral images(frames if you will) at 50x50 of cletis in a moving position, (move a little pixels here and there, such as waving or moving his mouth) in stop frame animation and find something that can create animated gifs.

then its all a matter of putting them in order, and specifiying how long each frame is shown

you can download free trial versions of
ulead gif animator and photoimpact

http://www.ulead.com/


theres many other free tools on the web methinks

Well, you could tint my windows, and instead of someone waving out the window, have someone mooning passers by as they pull down their zebra striped undies.

I found a nice website for various GIF files. That's where I found my avater. They have hundreds of them and I found it easy to copy into my profile.

Take a look,

JP

Talking Hot Competition

It looks like there's some heavy competition to see who can make the most distracting/annoying avatar.

I'm working on a flashing red one that will cause seizures in some people and it will also go "HONK! HONK! HONK!" every 2 seconds.

I am making one which does the following:
1. It will honk and flash
2. It will drive out of the screen into your living room
3. A hot blond will walk out and hand you the keys for your new SVX.

Anyone interested?
hehe

lwin

I did mine because I like the animated GIF idea and I thought it might look nice since I have a red SVX. If it gets too annoying, I will change mine back to the old one.

I just wanted to say I liked your gif.. it inspired me to mess around and make my little '93 SVX Avatar.. I had to stare at yours and a picture of my SVX while I made mine because figuring out how I was going to draw it was a pain! LOL But I think overall she came out rather well.. a bit smaller than yours but I was going for a longer look.
I even made one with a background (road, grass, clouds.. LOL) but then I thought I was doing too much so just put '93 instead

OH! I forgot to ask, why does the passenger have a white head in your gif? or.. Is the arm supposed to be like really tanned from riding shotgun in the car so much? LOL
