Response to: Egoraptor in the tester season 3! Posted February 8th, 2012 in General

I don't like to wax conspiratorial, but the producers must realize what a sizable chunk of new viewers Egoraptor brings. So they'll portray him as the douchebag, they'll make him sleep on the couch, they'll give him a disproportionate amount of shit, but they'll keep him at least until midgame, after they've had a shot at hooking the new viewers he brought. It's just good marketing.

And a tester? Really? The prize is the very bottom rung of an abusive, underpaid career ladder? Google "ea widow" and ask yourself if you'd like to be even lower on the food chain than that guy.

Oh well. At least they supplement the office chimp position with a small family car.

Response to: Your opinion about the new design! Posted February 8th, 2012 in General

I love the new look. I don't like how you have to mouse over the images on the front page to see what they are.

I also wish the community stats (level, B/P rank, etc.) was still shown on your profile, not buried under a "stats" link. On that note, I'm undecided about the new level icons. I wish there was a page that showed them all.

I love how medals are displayed now.

I'm not sure if I'm getting experience by voting. It just keeps telling me to keep voting and I'll keep getting experience. I'm sure that will be worked out soon, though.

Overall I think it's too early to tell. The current site has some teething problems, and some things will just take getting used to. I think I'll wind up totally loving it.

Skies of Arcadia, baby.

Response to: Who is your favourite animator? Posted December 22nd, 2011 in General

Not a huge fan of Krinkels per se, but I have to give him props for creating a genre that others like Mottis(Bunnykill) and Xionico (Xionic Madness) have done amazing work with.

Yeah, Egoraptor, yeah HappyHarry, chluaid, JohnnyUtah, etc. (I'm not a damn Flash hipster), but I really miss O-Ovinnie. SamBakZa, as well.

I like Appsro for reasons that have never made sense to me. His art is ugly, his voices are all the same, his humor is rarely anything above flat, and yet I watch the shit out of everything he has ever done.

Early 2010 Explosm was the shit. C&H humor with Chase's animation skills? Deserved every award it ever got.

And I look forward to seeing how ThunderHumor develops. I've seen some of his stuff on his YouTube, and he has a fresh style that I hope he continues.

I found I started appreciating Christmas a lot less when we stopped making macaroni shit in school and I had to start buying gifts.

Response to: Top entries from 09/15/2011! Posted September 16th, 2011 in P-bot's Postings

Man, some seriously solid stuff up there. I loved the entire K. O. L. M. series, TNA Part 3 is the best entry yet, and Anime Fight taught me that if I think I'm drawing the boobs too big, I'm not drawing them big enough.

Good show today, guys. But you'd better believe I'm cracking the top 5 next time. :D

Motion Tweens Posted September 15th, 2011 in Game Development

I must be doing this wrong. There must be an easier way. There is no reason for motion tweens to really be this retarded.

I want to add a few frames. Just a few in the middle, you know, to slow the motion. Just a bit.

If this were, say, a classic tween, I'd just F5 a few times in the middle, and hey. Problem solved.

But this is a motion tween, so it selects the whole goddamn section and F5 doubles the duration of my entire tween. Not what I'm after, Flash. I want 1/24th of a second. Not another 150 frames.

And let's say I have several points in my tween. Is there an easy way to delete keyframes? If I have point A, B, and C, and B is a problem, can I delete just that point?

And god forbid I need to edit the image I'm tweening. Do I seriously have to remove the tween, break apart the symbol, make my change, convert again, and rebuild the tween?! Why the hell will motion tween only work with symbols?!

Sorry for the rant/vent/legitimate technical question I have. I learned Adobe Premiere before Flash, and holy shit, is that program user friendly. Want to delete a keyframe? Click on it. Then press 'delete.' Want to move a keyframe? Click and drag. None of this "select the entire section instead of the one little part you need" business.

tl;dr: Is there an easier way of dealing with motion tweens?

'Cause guys? I just want to make some penis jokes.

Response to: Why is Flash Being a Slut? Posted August 5th, 2011 in Game Development

Ah. Problem solved. Still have no idea why it was doing it in the first place, but... problem solved.

Also, Fyctional, when posting in this forum in the future, please be more descriptive in the title as to the nature of your problem.

Thank you, hindsight.

Stay classy, Newgrounds.

Why is Flash Being a Slut? Posted August 5th, 2011 in Game Development

What I Want: Convert to Symbol. Movie Clip would be nice, but shucks... I'm not picky.

What Flash Does: Makes one little part of my drawing black THEN Converts to Symbol.

What I am Confused By: Why Flash makes part of my drawing black. It's all on the same layer, and I can't find anything peculiar to this area of my drawing that should make it freak out like that.

What I am About to Do: Say bad words then make Flash sleep on the couch.

How You can Help: Explain to me what would cause one little part of a drawing to black out. Google has been no help at all, and I've already sent him to bed without any supper.

Thank you.

Harder now to blam submissions? Posted March 2nd, 2011 in General

Are Newgrounders more tolerant these days of bad submissions? Some of the things that pass Judgment... well, I'll call them "promising efforts by young talent *"

My Protection points outweigh my Blam points by more than 8:1, and it's not because I'm stingy with the zeros. Then I see people with 1000, 5000, 30000 Blam points and I wonder if the Blam Hammer has seen mightier days.

Thoughts?
