Nah.  Animated stuff was never stiplulated, and since the winner will be chosen by you, my adoring public, my opinion doesn't really count, does it?

Since when did the opinion of the King not count?
I'm appalled at such a suggestion, though it was made by the King, so it must be valid and reasonable. 
Now I'm confused.

Opinion?  I meant to say Onion.  My onion doesn't count.  Which is understandable cos it's an onion.

Clear as crystal.  Thanks for the clarification.  I feel so much better now.

Bit of a break from the biscuit theme with this one...

I'm particularly proud of Vic for her entry.  Nice, unfussy design and apart from the spinning Jammie, entirely original.  Not a cut and paste in sight!  Well done, Vic.


So will you be gracing us with an entry, Stead?  I would greatly enjoy the opportunity mock your artistic ability as well!


I'd be disappointed is nothing appeared from our Nate as well!


If your artistic ability ain't up to it, send me some design specifications (a scribble on the back of a fag packet - anything) and I'll put one together for you!

I was actually working on an animation last night in Adobe Illustrator 3 last night. But it ended up all fubar. I'd play with one layer and it would get applied to all layers!

God I hate Adobe (had to convert PDFs yesterday as well)!

Erm, it was actually ImageReady. I'm looking at Illustrator right now. Like most Adobe products, I imagine it'd be better of in the trash with the world's supply of Macs!

Right.

Okay, figured the layering business with ImageReady. Now the bugger is that adobe forces you to save the thing in a .PSD format (.gif's not an option!!)! Useless!

I might have figured this out!



Not a very good banner, but helps with the morale.

while we're (sorta) on the topic - may i point you in the direction of primo pdf which converts documents to pdfs.. in a very handy dandy fashion.. once you install it, it appears as a printer when you go to print .. hit print and it creates a pdf there and then and hassle free and no i'm nothing to do with the company, just impressed by it (and it's freeeeee!)

KT, it's not getting data to a pdf that causes me spastic fits, it's getting a pdf file back to any sort of useful format. I have the writer so it automatically bogs down my office suite every time I launch an application.

Thanks D (I think!). Some specs:

#: DE0000

R:222
G:0
B:0

It gets a little patchy as you zoom way in on it, but looks somewhat like this from a distance.

Not sure if html fully supports those specs, but it's what I used. I flipped to Web Colours only and the pallete now looks like:

Can I just say, while I think all your artwork is fantastic, please can we settle on something fairly thin?  At the mo I can see about 2 posts on the main page before having to scroll down.

I'm disappointed Stead. 
A creative talent like yours.
And you look so capable.    (without the luscious locks! )
