Hiya I'm submitting a Flash I made to a film festival but I have to burn it to a DVD to submit it. I don't have Quicktime pro so I cannot export it as .mov
Which leaves me with AVI, right?
So... here are the compression options my Flash gives me for AVI files:
Cinepak Codec by Radius
Intel 4:2:0 Video V2.50
Intel Indeo (r) Video R3.2
Intel IYUV codec
Microsoft RLE
Microsoft Video 1
Microsoft H.263 Video Codec
Microsoft H.261 Video Codec
MS MPEG-4 3688 V2
MS MPEG-4 3688 V1
Xvid MPEG-4 Codec
Full Frames (Uncompressed)

I don't know too much about this stuff.. so can you download other compressors or something? It has to be real good quality because it will be shown on a big screen, I believe
Any help would be awesome!

Oh and here's the link to the animation:

Hwhy thank you
Here is another picture of Jim
And higher quality version
http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e154/e rnest_aka_gooey/EarthwormJimShaded.png

Well this is a drawing in two slightly different styles, I guess. Skullkid is very sketchy, and Jim is cleaner. For Jim I was concentrating more on proper like... muscle anatomy, I guess. Also his head was pretty tough to get accurate.
Skullkid... I just wanted to look cool. Haha. Skullkid I'm more concerned about the shading, I suppose. Need to practice shading more..
So
Tips?
Constructive criticisms?
Comments?

Also for both characters I was trying to get as accurate as possible (though now I realise I forgot to put in Jim's crossed blue straps on his front)
Also here's a bigger, higher resolution picture

Heh, thanks (and thanks to others). I have some other stuff (two other really recent drawings) but they aren't as good as that one so :P
If I make anymore ones that I find acceptably good I'll post 'em though

Comments? Suggestions?

Ok. I got the "coat hanger" removed today. It wasn't really a coat hanger though, it was something like a two inch long nail. At least a nail is what it looks like, it's decently mangled. I have it wrapped up in some tinfoily stuff and it's in my pocket right now. Anywho, an interesting thing is there's still a bit of the t-shirt I was wearing that day attached to it.
It was a very simple thing to remove. They just froze the skin around the area and made a small cut where the scar from the entry was. I was watching it in the reflection of the doctor's glasses. Couldn't see too much though, it was a pretty small view, and they put this brownish pasty stuff all over the area, so that obscured more. Since the thing was near my arm pit area it tickled me quite a bit.

Please give me an opinion. I want to improve. They're just rough doodles at the moment.

As I said, I can't really get pictures, but if my friend gets a cable to put the video on the computer, I'll be able to get that on.

The thing was that the cut it made looked very superficial. There wasn't even any blood dripping out from it. It just seemed as though it bounced off a rib or something like that, and wasn't a serious problem at all.

Me and my friend made that small video I was talking about, but he doesn't have the cables needed to put it on the computer.

I'm going to get X-Rays on Monday after school.

So, how big a shard you have in there?

Thanks... I was never very good at estimating. It isn't too big. maybe 6 or 7 cm? Not very good at estimating.

Broken_souls, I already said that all I saw on my was a little dot, about the same (a bit bigger) circumference as a coat-hanger. It went in me at such an angle as it made a very small hole. I guess I was in a bit of shock so I didn't feel too much pain. Can't remember the incident TOO well anyways.

By the way. After school I'm going to a friends house. The friend owns a digital camera, and wants to film me attaching a magnet to myself. So I might be able to get a small video of me doing that online.

Fh, you don't need a doctor, if the hangar's magnetic, get a magnet and see if you can slide it to your side or up to your shoulder and shove it out. If that fails, get a knife and make a small incision, then pull it out with the magnet. Seriously, it might sound sick, but it's what i would do.

Strangely enough I actually thought about doing that for a split second... but seriously, why take any amount of risks when you can go see a doctor? And I don't like the idea of moving a piece of metal around that's inside of me.
I just tried putting a magnet over where the coat-hanger is and it stuck there. Wow. It can even stick to me through my t-shirt. This is getting very interesting..

I'll be back... just you wait.
I might be able to get "after" pictures

Tried taking a picture, it didn't turn out too well. You can't see it very well. It just comes out as this small white blobbish thingy on my skin. And the picture was kind of blurry.
Plus my sister was really "weirded" out by the whole thing in general. SOoo... no pics right now. Maybe once it's removed.

I don't feel too bad. There was this girl in my class that had to get surgery on the back of her knee and in her mouth within the space of a few months.
I wonder if they'll let me keep the piece of metal...

Before & After please

Ah see... I suppose I could try to get some pictures. My sister has a digital camera... and it WOULD be interesting to get before and after.
I'll try to, but my sister isn't here right now, so... I'm not sure when I'll have them. If I would be able to get them.

Talk about nerves of steel. lol

That's another weird thing. I thought it just sort of bounced off because all there was, was a little hole there. It went in at a very.. good angle for it to enter me. I can't remember the the incident TOO well, but ya. It looked like it just bounced off or something.

I know... I know.. I'm smart. I didn't mess around with it TOO much... heh... mm..

Huh... I never thought about that.... why WAS there a coat hanger on my lawn?!

Seriously, two or three years ago, I was mowing the lawn. I didn't check it thoroughly for... solid objects. Anywho, I ran over a coat-hanger. A piece of it flew off and hit me right at my heart. I just thought it bounced off. I got a bit freaked out. Turned off the mower, and went inside.
About a year ago, I noticed a strange sort of lumpish type thing where my heart is. It's above the rib cage. I thought it was just a really big artery or something... I'm not the most educated person in the world when it comes to anatomy, so anywho. I just dismissed it.
Then last night, I was going to sleep, and I felt that lump. I always sort of half suspected that it was the coat-hanger ever since I found that lump, but I never really believed it until now.
How I realised it was I was sort of pushing it around, and I got it to sort of "bounce" along my rib cage. Then I realised it was really quite solid, and had a defined length.
When I got home from school today, I looked in the mirror and noticed there were two small lumps in my heart region; two points where the coat-hanger sort of curbs, and presses against my skin. I found out that I could also find a tip of the piece of coat-hanger, and when I push it I can make the opposite end press against my skin.
I'm now going to go see a doctor about it.

I pride myself with my weirdness, to some degree. Although I don't think this topic is really all that weird. I suppose if you haven't felt the feeling or just didn't get the sense of what I was saying then you could call this weird

But have you felt the sad version?

It's when you shake a lil bit and you think you shiver but its not cold.

I've felt the good version of the sad. I suppose the best way to describe the good version of the sad is giddy. But ya, it's shivering with... excitement I suppose, it's quite nice. I felt that on Friday the 13th. That was the one good thing that happened to me. Other than that I was just on newgrounds from 3:45 to 12:00. No friends etc.

That one that you get in the back of your neck, that you might get when, idunno, you're around someone you HATE. It feels like all the negative feeling coming from your brain and going to the rest of your body is being channeled through the back of your neck? And you just want to rip the back of your neck out?
Then there's that feeling that's quite the opposite, that you might get when, idunno, you're around someone you like, or love (in my case like, I'm just 14...). It feels like all the positive feeling coming from your brain and going to the rest of your body is being channeled through the back of your neck? And it sometimes transfers to, idunno, your shoulders?
I got the good version just then... s'awesome.

Why I'm telling you this is not for the story of why I got it, it's just to see if people other than me and the one other person I discussed this with get it. I'm assuming they do, since it's logical to assume you're part of the majority. I loves that good version... I loves it goooood. (oh GIR... you and your shenanigans.)

I used to be sort of shy, but now I'm just not cynical. Not sure if that's how you spell it. And paranoid.
Whenever I talk to someone on MSN or something I feel like they're laughing at me...
But, I guess what you should do is get proffesional help, if it is really as bad as you say it is.

Appareantly I'm worth:

$2,116,116

But I think I entered some of th information incorrectly so....

I just ate a nice bowl of soup. I think I overcooked it though, tasted kinda "dusty" if you know what I mean.
But yeah, we're all plotting against you. And sending secret messages in our... our stuff.

without Invader Zim.
Damn, I wish I had room to put Invader Zim in the topic title...
Seriously though, I know that MY life would be COMPLETELY different without Invader Zim. So many unhappened events would be filled with the regular stuff I'm up to. Heheh
Example: If Invader Zim you wouldn't be wasting your time in this topic. Unless you like Invader Zim, then you wouldn't really be wasting your time I guess.
Anywho. The world would be a much different place without this well loved short tv series. Sadly enough it was stopped right before Dib's exploration into space.
Oh GIR... you and your shenanigans...

How old is your brother?

Mine was pretty damn crappy.
I got home from school at like, 3:45 pm, and was on the computer till 12:00 am
Ya, I'm cool...
Infact, I made a topic yesterday about how all my friends were doing something but me...

One good thing happened, but I'm not sure if it's going to follow through, and it was a bit delayed to be really good anyways.

Depends what kind of soup.
In my opinion, if there's nothing but liquid, like tomatoe soup for example, then you drink it.
If it's like vegetable soup, and there's a whole lot of stuff in it, then you eat it.
