Hey forum, I'm Alex. Little bit about myself then...I'm 17, not turning 18 for like 6 months or some number like that. Like to play tennis, listen to the Rock n' Roll, see all the new movies, and of course watch LBT. Ahhhhh...Well I like Ducky, she's freakin' awesome..That's about all I can come up with. Oh I like these guys,  :p  :lol  :angel  :rolleyes  :! , they're cool.

Yeah like 10 minutes after I joined I realized I needed an avatar. As bad as it is, I'm a little rusty so it took like an hour and a half. :cry

An interesting one you made.  The animation lasts quite a few seconds.

Oh it was just a forum for a game I used to play, I won't say any names. No one there actually played the game, and everyone was a jerk to everyone (just to try to be funny). I didn't put up with that of course, I got banned from it for telling the moderators just how bad of a job they were doing (and the moderators liked to abuse people just because they had "power" over people on the internet).  :anger

Hi. Welcome to the GoF! That's quite a good animation you have there... I think you will fit right in to the GoF... I'm Noname... if you ever need help getting around or just want to chat, you can send me a PM at any time. Oh, and don't worry about being banned... it is quite rare and you would have to be doing something very, very bad.

:wave Howdy there Alex! :wave

Welcome to the Gang of Five forum. Glad to have you on board with us! First of all, as a moderator of the forum, you seriously don't have to worry about being banned for something like a suggestion. We're very open to constructive criticism as long as it has purpose and it's not just an angry rant :D Everyone's entitled to their own opinion. Everyone gets along here just fine and we're very approachable should you need/wish to discuss anything. We're not a group of power-mongering figureheads like some moderators like to impose on themselves on other forums :p Somehow, I doubt you will have anything to fear. ;) BTW, lovin' the avatar! Ducky pwning that sharptooth! :lol

Anyway, look forward to seeing ya on the forum matey! Good to have you with us! ;)

Holy crump, you made that animation yourself?! :blink: In an hour and a half, no less? It probably took me longer than that just to draw the outline for my avatar!

Seriously; that animation is so good that I thought it must have been altered from some sort of LBT game for a handheld console, and I was wondering, "Now where can I get that game..."

Anyway, welcome to the GoF! (I'm a huge Ducky fan, too, by the way. :smile)

It is from a game. Lol, when I said I 'made' it, I was speaking in sprite animation terms. I've never drawn my own sprites, not my area of expertise. Whole different ball games when you're talkin' about drawing the sprites and animating them. And you can probably buy the game on eBay. I think it was on the Gameboy Advance.

EDIT: Lol, I thought someone here might have played the game. I've never played the game, but on the sprite sheets, there was only half of a T-Rex, so I assume on the game he only comes half-in the screen as in the animation.

Oh. :oops Sorry. There I go again demonstrating my proficiency at misinterpreting something said about a subject I know very little about, and subsequently making a stooge of myself when I say something in response. :p
For what it's worth, it's still a very impressive animation (way beyond anything I could probably ever do; let alone in an hour and a half. ;)). And now that I know that it's a real game after all, maybe I'll go about trying to obtain a copy. Thanks. :)

The sprites were taken from one of those, yes.
