Seeing JOO do all those sigs gave me an idea for practicing my Flash skills. I need some practice for my upcoming sprite movie, so I'm thinking of making animated sigs for everyone. I can't make gunbound ones since I have yet to find a way to get Gunbound sprites, but for anything else, I can animate. Just tell me what you want the animation to be, and do. It can not exceed over 25 frames, since anything beyond 25 takes a long time. There is no post requirement, and I'll be taking 3 requests at a time. Here are 2 of my animations I did in the past-

I can do just about anything, as long as I can find a sprite sheet for it.

Thanks, that took me around 3 hours, since it had over 250 frames. Well worth it though. I just gotta find a way to convert it into a GIF, anyone know how? When I publish it in flash, there are some errors, so I need a good, FREE converter.

The fight you created moves pretty sketchy, but your other one is pretty fluent. They're nice.

A stick figure battle would be a lot of frames, I can make them dance, but a fight would take 200+ frames. Also, which dance? I can do Hula, Disco, and Funk.

Have them break dance. THEN EXPLODE:xd: (if the explosion is too much work then forget it.)

It's kinda hard, I'm used to working with sprites, not stick figures, do you want anything using sprites? Because the stick figures are ugly as heck, and their dancing sucks.

Interesting, try using fraps or something else, recording gunbound, then using image ready, and make a little thing about a mobile shooting someone. For example, a boomer shoots someone with a backshot, and then the other person shoots back with a backshot,(achieved by using change wind), and then it loops. Hope it was entertaining to read. It was interesting to write.

Do you mean me? I spent less than 10 minutes on this one thank you very much. It is only temporary anyways until I actually choose an avatar that I like. I haven't really viewed all the avatars yet since I just recently started to even play Gunbound. I would appreciate if you wouldn;t insult me or my limits. Sorry I am not as good as JOOgold but then again why would I be when I am only 13. Sorry if i don't meet your signature standards. If you read on my signature you will also notice that it states, "I make very few signatures." Ring a bell as to why?

I wouldn't necessarily say you have animation skills when you're just taking sprites that other people have made for animation and then pasting them into different frames over and over.

When you start drawing your own stuff, then you can be considered an animator.

I'm still a sprite user, I practice occasionally with custom drawings, but I prefer to rip sprites and use them, since I'm not an artist. Good idea with the imageready, except I don't have the money to buy it, I can try using the trial version if there is one.

I can now animate GB. Anyone who wants a animation while shooting, or in the room, contact me, and I'll go film you.

Well, sorry I went off on you, you just happened to post right after me, about signatures when I had just uploaded a temporary one. I thought the topic was angled more towards animations not signatures. Sorry for any inconvience I may have caused.
