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

A video I found regarding LBT

I wasn't sure where to put this. I found a video on YT. The guy who posted it claims that this is how they came up with LBT character designs.

Personally I don't agree as it doesn't make much sense. All the guy did was change the lines to be more LBT-like and concluded that's how they did the character designs. I think he's just jumping to conclusions too easily. I could easily do the same thing if I wanted, like take a picture of Rex from We're Back, recolor him and give him different lineart, and conclude that's how they did Chomper.

What are your thoughts on this?

Interesting.  Not sure if that is where they looked at for ideas for the designs, but it is possible.

We watched Fantasia in music class in 8th grade, and there was this scene in it, where an apatosaur and a t-rex were fighting, it looked just like Littlefoot's mother and Sharptooh. It was during the introduction.

I believe it was a Stegosaur and a Tyrannosaurus fighting.

I agree with you DH. This person also is on Deviantart trying to convince me of this .

It's a Stegosaurus fighting a Tyrannosaurus in Fantasia.

DH: I agree with you, although it could be marginally possible that in fact they could have used Fantasia as a influence I don't really believe that this is so, especially as the person responsible for the video only made changes in the lineart and incorporated it into the LBT style, something which anyone can do for any specific animated film.
