Here's my attempt at a Non-MSPaint sketch :P

Whoo! Made another one ^^

Okay so the Wacom that was sent to me from the giveaway (Huge thanks to Tom :D) came in today and I got right into using it. So yeah, I whipped out sum MSPaint and sketched this out. Damn, drawing with a tablet is so much fun :D

Omg, thank you so much Tom! This is the best xmas ever!~

Haha dude, works perfectly! Thanks alot man! :D

I was just wondering if there was a way to make a .swf play the same exact quality that the imported song has. Like you know, if you play the .swf, you'll notice the decline in sound quality.

I have tried almost all the "Properties" in the sound in the library (Bit rate: 160 kbps Quality: best etc.) but the song is still not the same quality. Also, I don't really care on the file size as long as it's all good.

Any ideas?

Oh heh damnit...someone took There she is! -_- ...I'm too late lol

Wow, awesome dude. Thanks a bunch!

Hmmm...actually I have another question to ask you related to my previous one. Okay, say that I have and input textbox with the variable "userMusic" and a button. So what I want to happen is the user puts in a file address (ex. C:\music.mp3) and on that button, it'll play it.

I've tried something like:
Sound1.loadSound(_root.userMusic, true)

but it doesn't work like that. Any idea? And thanx again :D

Dude why are you so smart? Lol thanx alot! Works like a charm :)

Okay so what I want to do is make flash play music on my computer using actionscript and telling it to play a specific address on my computer like "C:\music.mp3". So when I export it as a .swf it will play that file.

Any ideas? Thnx in advance :)

Here's a really small update: http://denvish.net/ulf/250707/41783_Unti tled-1_Anim_2.php

It's only like 5 seconds long but I guess it's better than nothing. I would have gotten more done but I kinda restarted it, my last try didn't flow smoothly. Anyways, I'll probably fix up the first swing too though...it doesn't look right lol

Jin Saotome :: Marvel vs. Capcom/Cyberbots (BLODIAAAA!!)

Hey can someone help me out alittle? I'm doing Jin Saotome, from Cyberbots and Marvel vs. Capcom (I can him ^^) but I'm not sure what the symbol on his back looks like HD (the red). Does anyone know what it looks non-pixelated?

This is the best I can do with coloring (I know it's really bad)

Everytime I look at deviantart, I feel so jealous on how awesome that stuff is. Like the lighting, contrasts, shadows, everything. I've been trying to keep up by practicing alone but I've been going nowhere with it...I know nothing about coloring.

Can anyone point me in the right direction, or even put me under their wing? I have photoshop cs2 but I'll go buy any other program if anyone strongly recommends it.

This pic is what I've been trying to color:

I thought drawing over things is considered tracing either way :\

My update...I've done some drawing for the face off part. Just sketches. I've also started on the actual battle animation but it's only 1.3 seconds long so I won't show it at the moment :P

I think Macromedia was the original owner/developer of Flash until after Flash 8 which is now why it is called Adobe Flash because Adobe bought Macromedia.

Lol yeah I knew I couldn't do Deathnote, I read the first post. I just wished I could :P But I'll think of what I should do.

I'm really interested in joining (I really would have wanted to do Deathnote :P) but I'm still unsure whether or not if I'll have alot of free time for it. I'm posting to see if I qualify for a spot so if I do, I can move some things in my schedule.

Example 1
Example 2

Windows comes with a free recording program: Start > All Programs > Accessories > Entertainment > Sound Recorder. I would go with Audacity though :P

Yeah, even when you think the lines are all connected, there's a possibility that there are still holes. Try changing the setting of the fill tool to "Close Medium Gaps" under the options of the fill tool.

ive heard some people having problems with the flash 8 version of it... im using the flash mx 2004 version and it seems to work fine. It should be available in the pico day 07 page but if its not here ya go:

I'm not sure if this was mentioned or not but when I used the Flash 8 version, it didn't work for me either but I was snooping around the actual movie clip and noticed this on the play button:

on (release) {
_root.play
}

I changed it to "_root.play()" and it works for me now :P

Ugh...why...I know the last raid wasn't anything to worry about but I would seriously be pissed if they ruined Pico Day. I'm sure everyone here has been working hard on their submissions (including myself) and for people to screw that up...that's just not right.

I've been drawing for a while but I recently felt that I should work on my coloring so I'm really newb atm :P I want to know if I'm hitting the right spots for the shades and for any advice/tips/secrets of photoshop that you guys would kindly reveal to me :)

I haven't officially announced it but I'm doing a sequel to Pico Sim Date. Some people asked me to make it/update it so I thought this year would be perfect for it. It continues with another weird storyline and newer features like "random decision events" and being able to buy clothes to make Pico look more cooler :P

I'm about 70% done so hopefully I don't get too lazy and miss Pico Day...Anyways, I'm looking forward to your awesome Pico flashes too!

Small screenshot of the world view

I just got mine in the mail today in awesome condition. I guess the mailman was able to understand the note on it, eh? :P

My version of Nene for my project. Hopefully people can recognize it from the original one :P

A really short animation clip which will be apart of my pico game. Comments are appriciated :) http://denvish.net/ulf/110307/56941_Pico2Anim ation.php
