The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Hey

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.
