I've always had good luck with Adobe Elements with resizing animated pictures. If you'd like, you can PM (or link) the image to me and I'll resize it for you.

I'm more for individual songs than artists/albums. I'm a BIG Morrissey fan, I love Green Day, and The Killers.

My favorite albums are, I guess:
Strangeways, Here I Come by The Smiths and American Idiot by Green Day. Good stuff.

In order: Horror, Sci-Fi, and Mystery. I do like Fantasy, but it's too wide a genre for me to vote for (there's a lot of fantasy I don't care for). I'm more into horror and sci-fi myself, I love spooky things. I love speculative fiction, too, I love how sci-fi speculates on where we'll be going and what the future will be like. I especially love the nature of fear, I love the analyze why something scares us and what it means. That's why I love horror.
Also, there's this whole big theory of thanatos in horror that I won't bore you with but it's a big factor in why I love the genre XD

Stephen King has a nice foreward in one of his short story books that is a good one-sentence go on the subject:

And the great appeal of horror fiction through the ages is that it serves as a rehearsal for our own deaths.

As for mystery, well I picked that because I like True Crime. Granted, that would be non-fiction, but I don't like most non-fiction. Mystery tends to be a bit of both so I let it count for the True Crime genre.

Well one of my favorite quotes, from "The Catcher in the Rye", uses a curse word and I'm not sure if I can put it up here XD

I like Hamlet. Not so much the story as a whole (it's good but I'm not much one for Shakespeare). I like it because it has some of the greatest lines I've ever heard (er, read):

There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.

I could be bounded in a nutshell, and count myself a king of infinite space, were it not that I have bad dreams.

The whole "To Be or Not to Be" speech is awesome, but long XD I'll pick out my favorite part

Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep; ó
To sleep, perchance to dream: ó ay, there's the rub;
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come,

Hamlet: Denmark's a prison.
Rosencrantz: Then is the world one.

Unless Kimba, the White Lion is also based on "Hamlet" then no, The Lion King is not a rip-off. In anycase, lions have always been seen as kings (King of the Jungle) so if Kimba is also seen as a prince/king (I don't recall if he was) that doesn't mean the Lion King was ripping it off. The name is pretty pointless to debate, as Simba means lion in Swahili. It's not just Kimba with an S.

I'll admit that maybe there's inspiration there, but rip-off? No.

I believe it was "Canyon of the Shiny Stones" or something like it. I was kind of put-off by the random CG they used, as it was gaudy. However, over the next few episodes they seemed to catch on that it didn't look good and now use it less (at least for the characters) so I'm happy XD I just thought it was cute and have been watching ever since.

Well, I was born in '88 so obviously I didn't see it then XD I don't exactly recall WHEN I saw the first movie, but I definitely saw it before the sequels. I had the VHS and I remember always liking it. Like many of you, I was big into dinosaurs when I was little (loved Jurassic Park and We're Back: A Dinosaur Story) so that was a major factor in my enjoyment. The death of Littlefoot's mother always made me cry. Nowadays, though, I usually only cry at the part where he thinks his shadow is his mom =( I can't stand people in mourning/denial. It breaks my heart.
I believe I only kept renting/buying the sequels up until 4. The only VHS I still own is tLBT III. I don't think we ever owned II, which is odd because I always adored Chomper.

Anyway, I kind of lost interest after that. Not in animation, but in the sequels. Although I went through a phase where I hated kid's movies, then a phase where I hated movies where they sing. Now...I love both of them XD I also like a lot of musicals so there you go. I wish more animated films would have character songs, I'm tired of the pop music injected into movies these days =\
In anycase, I thought it was ridiculous that there was so many sequels but..now I'm not so sure XD I think the first four are cute, but I've yet to really see any ones after that (yeah, yeah, I know, I'm working on it XD). I love getting obsessed with things, though, so I plan to start collecting the DVDs when I get some money.

I got back into the series through the TV show. I like to keep tabs on animation things so when I heard they were making the series I was a little outraged XD I decided to check it out though and it really quelled my fears. It's so cute and harmless, I just can't help but watch it! XD I assume I'll like it better than the sequels, because the short time frame really works for it. It'd be nice if all the songs didn't use the same tune, but I understand why they do that. I rather like the "I Feel So Happy" song, it's really cute =D Sometimes I sing the songs I can remember to my baby sister.

Incidentally, I think it's really sad that some of you are made to feel you're odd, childish, or "too old" to watch this series. I've always felt one of the problems with this world is that everyone is too afraid to 'play' anymore =\ Sure, not everyone likes the series, or other cartoon shows, but I think a lot of people would watch and enjoy them if they weren't so afraid of being seen as immature. It doesn't make you immature to watch cartoons. What DOES make you immature is thinking less of someone simply because they like cartoons! It's not a barometer of intelligence or maturity, it's just something you enjoy. I thank my lucky stars my mother never made me feel immature for liking kid's movies and I'm sorry you folks don't have the same freedom =\

'ello mates! I've been scoring the 'net for DAYS looking for a good "The Land Before Time" group/forum and had all but given up when I stumbled upon this place. What luck! =D

I'm known as Artemis Panthar, but you can call me Artie, Arte, AP, or whatever you wish really (Although I'm not partial to 'Art'). I'm a 19-year old animation student (on hiatus) from sunny ol' Southern California. I graduated early from high school (at age 15), and bounced around a bit before going to college. I've been on the internet for ages and have been known by my alias for a long time so if you see another ArtemisPanthar out there, it's probably me!

I'm big into cartoons and grew up watching "The Land Before Time" series. Part way into it I kind of lost interest in the sequels but I really love the new TV series. Good stuff. My other favorite cartoons include: Rocko's Modern Life, Loonatics: Unleashed, Peep and the Big Wide World (it's just too cute XD), Tiny Toon Adventures, and on and on and on.
To note, I don't particularly care for anime as a whole. I don't dislike it, I'm just hard to please with that particular animation style.

Aside from animation, I'm a huge horror fan of all mediums. I'm OBSESSED with the Silent Hill series! I love horror movies, but I view them with a discerning eye: I hate the lackluster ones made just to make a buck because it perpetuates the idea that the horror genre is remedial and it really isn't. But I shall not rant about these things to you =D

My favorite movies are: Stay (you MUST see this movie), Jacob's Ladder, Silent Hill, Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, Se7en, 12 Monkeys, Brazil (and a lot of others...)
My favorite musicians are: Morrissey/The Smiths, Green Day, Colin Hay, and a whole bunch of songs by individual artists.
My favorite video games are: All the Silent Hills (although 2 is my favorite), Psychonauts, Skullmonkeys, the Sly Cooper series, the Ratchet and Clank series, and on...
My favorite book is: The Wainscott Weasel by Tor Seidler. A rare find but an absolutely fantastic book that deserves much more attention than it's gotten. I also like the Redwall Series and various horror books. Oh, also, Haruko Murakami.

This is really running long (although quite short for me XD), so I should wind down now. I do hope I didn't leave out anything but if you have any questions, feel free to ask. I look forward to talking to ya'll in the forums!
