Alrighty, this has been brewing in the artistic minds of a few AGers lately - an animation contest!
Similar to the Art Skills Competition we need a few rules in place (largely copy/pasted, so credits to Carlie for parts of this):
1. Must be hand drawn, either on paper or in a program. It can then be manipulated in an graphics program (GIMP is a nice free one with a build in animation filter - google it). Copyrighted images cannot be used. All pieces containing copyrighted images will be disqualified.
2. Submissions must follow the current theme. If you submit more than one piece, please clarify which one you would like to be judged.
3. If your animation is larger than 630 pixels wide, please provide a link to the animation instead of posting it in the forum. Otherwise, the animation will be cut off.
4. Artists cannot win in subsequent weeks. You can still submit, but if you won the week before, you cannot get first place again the next week. Unless only one person submits......let's hope that doesn't happen!

Alright, let's see if this kicks off.
First theme will be ~ Jumping.
It's a basic thing to learn in animation, and it can be anything from a pixelated blob performing up/down motions, to - anything jumping.
Like:
I don't know who will do the judging yet (will be me, if no one else (like Strop?) decides they'll do it).
Deadline for first round will be October 20th, since animation is a somewhat time consuming process. Go make those pixels jump!
Cen! Thats not my entry! Mine was this:
Mouse Attack
I think...if I can say this...if this hasn't been judged by Friday...then I will judge it myself...
Sorry, I took what seemed to be the most recent one, so...
At least they are all on the same page now.
I will try and kick Zophia to it.
Lol sounds as if you don't want me to do it! jj :P
Funny if we got more entries in the next few days!
This is why Zophia should have judged a little earlier > >...
Epic Fail plz.
OK...I am officially judging this thread...
AND THE WINNER IS: EVERYONE!!!!
EVERYONE"S A WINNER!
Yeah...Zoph has given me permission to take over the judging of this thread...so I will get around to it ASAP...probably either tomorrow night or friday arvo (CST)....If it isn't done by then...then it will be done on Saturday!
*could totally judge this now if I could see the entries*
Looking forward to seeing how you judge, KR. And apologies to everyone for abandoning this thread.

No...she is having problems with things from Photobucket not showing....
I wondered at this too...but then I remembered what she said in another post....
Well, it seems that this contest is finally about to get judged....after only...hmm lets see...
New theme: Stick figure pwnage
Deadline: December 27th
Lol...love the Monobrow Thoad, love the monobrow! I can understand why the little people wanted to attack the big person...they wanted to steal his monobrow so that they could make clothes and material! An awesome idea, and a very good twist on the theme. I think you should add Monobrow man to you LolWhut franchise!
Technically, all of them are members of LoLWhut Inc., and specialize in the "random stick violence" department. They will be starring in several different "Red Vs. Blue" stick figure random violences, I've been working on one but it's a little rough sooo....yeah.
Uh thoad, be careful with the colour discrimination there :P OMG RACIST j/k.
Though to be sure, somebody from the internet dark ages has made an entire franchise off a "blue versus green" stick figures (very one-sided at that), known as Stick-Death, so if you want to rehash the idea I strongly suggest making it a parody!
Esuna's text reads as follows: "OMGWTF" "SHOCK BEAM!" "Oh no you didn't" :P
Cenere's stickman seems to be saying "I almost forgot it!"
Superheroes? I probably won't be entering this round but we'll see! Either way it'll be exhibition only.

Hm, I suppose I could dig up a dialogue-based spoof or something. Would be good lip-synching practice.
Thread is locked!
