never mind, my animation probably won't be done today. But there's a slim chance it will.

Hey, fellas!

Just a friendly reminder that there's now 17 days left until the deadline needs to be met. I still need to see animations from the following authors:

-Rudy
-mgproductions
-zoy
-dog
-LostVoices
-Red-Toaster
-Honto
-TheWingedHeart
-JunkyCow
-Johnny
-LordOfKetchup
-Lopaxe

I know that some of you are nearing completion and within this week you'll probably be done. There's no need to rush it. 17 days are not a long time but it's all the time you guys have to refine your collab animations, so take that time if you feel like you need to.

I hope to see some great work coming from you guys!

Just to let you know, JunkyCow posted he was done on the last page.

hes right! i sent my .fla to the email address you gave me. you havent gotten it yet...?

No, i didn't get it. You either mispelt it or sent it to the werong address. Otherwise it'd be there.
Send it again.

Massimo--

no, i sent it to the right address, but my email service did not send it. ill send it again.

there. i just sent it again now. this time you should get it.

mate, i'm not getting anything. FIrst, make sure that your file doesn't exceed 10 megabytes as an attachment and second make sure that this email address is spelt correctly when you send:

white_sonic_8@hotmail.com

alternatively, if that one doesn't work a third time, send your work to this email address instead:

slimscemo_oz@optusnet.com.au

finally, if that addy doesn't work either, simply upload your .fla file on a free hosting site like denvish.net and send me the link in a private message here on Newgrounds.

If neither of those ways work, i'm completely out of options. God effin' help me...

Massimo--

not even close to 10 meg...... if it's failed twice already, it's a problem with MY email service. ill send it from a different service, and that should fix the problem.

Okay, people. We're bringing ourselves closer and closer to getting this done. We're also closer to the deadline, which is now only 14 days away. That's two exact weeks.

I'm still expecting work from the following authors:

-Rudy
-mgproductions
-zoy
-dog
-LostVoices
-Red-Toaster
-Honto
-TheWingedHeart
-Johnny
-LordOfKetchup
-Lopaxe

Whilst i know that some of you are almost done with your parts (having seen prevews and screenshots of your work to confirm that) i haven't seen any work from some others. If any of you are going to pull out of this project, now would be a good time to tell me before it really> hurts this collab's chance of making it in time for the release date.

We have over 2 minutes and 40 seconds worth of footage, which is good. More would be even better, but let's not forget that there are still some authors who need to submit their work.

The interface is complete, folks. It looks great and it works without a problem. It's bug free so that's another worry off your minds.

I will be sending a copy of this post to all authors with any outstanding work. I want to know who is still going to make it and who isn't. I'm not willing to wait until the last minute. It's either yes or no. This is too important to me and i'm sure it's just as important to everyone else who worked their butt off to make this into greatness.

Good luck, everyone!

Massimo--

im assuming this means my part finally got through to you? thats good to hear.

I can't wait till this comes out : )

Yeah, JunkyCow's animation came through and after watching it i must say i was quite impressed.

Anyways, looking at the countdown scope there's now 12 days to go before the emoticonisation rocket launches into the flash portal orbit. Let's get to it whoever hasn't submitted and i need to remind you guys that i'm expecting animations from the following authors:

-Rudy
-zoy
-dog
-LostVoices
-Red-Toaster
-Honto
-TheWingedHeart
LordOfKetchup

That's not a lot of people, by the way. We're slowly but surely getting there.

Good luck, everyone!

Massimo--

Ladies and Gentlemen, there's now only 11 days to go! Time is running short and i still need to see work from some of you. The list from my previous post remain unvaried, so i'm not going to post it again.

The collab's almost set to go. I've begun editing the submissions i received into place. So far it's looking pretty good. No bugs found in this version of the .swf file up to current date.

I'll keep you posted as to how work is progressing. In the meantime, i hope the rest of you are almost done (or that you at least tell me what's going on, whether you dropped out or not).

Be back soon!

Massimo--

thanks! i put a lot of work into that little movie....

Guys, we're only 7 days away from the deadline and i've only got 9 animations out of about 15 or 16 authors who said they were going to do something. Not to seem like a pain, but i'm getting rather anxious.

It's not like you guys didn't have a lot of time to do it in... Which makes me think that some of you are either keeping me hanging until the very last minute or you're plain lazy and just can't be bothered telling me that you're going to drop out.

for the last time. If you're no longer going to animate for this collab, say so. I have a list of authors and a lot of ticks to add to it. It'd be great if some of you helped me out by either telling me what's going on or finally submitting your piece. I need time to edit your parts into place too, you know. I don't just chuck your bits in however they happen to fit...

Massimo, I'm not keeping you hanging. My piece(s) should be in really soon. Just had alot of busy days that kept me pretty scheduled away from the computer. But my piece will be done. I promise.

I won't let you down.
I swear.

I'm sorry; But I'm working on my part right now to add some finishing products.
It will be done though.
Sorry for long absence.

I'm am NOT dropping out.

-Rudy

Well, i'm glad that someone stepped forward and let me know what is happening, but what's going on with everyone else? I' getting a bad feeling about this.

W.F.A.A. was a success. I don't want this collab to be of any lower standard.

Massimo--

im almost done, I'll get it in.

FOUR DAYS TO GO!

The final countdown is now on. Four days to get all parts in. There's still authors who havent submitted anyting or even shown me any sort of work, for the matter.

Get a move on folks! I want to finish editing this collab as soon as i can!

Massimo--

sorry..
I got surgery today on my both eyes
I can't see too much
in major pain

so i don't know on what's gonna go on.
I got really..bloody eyes.
I can't really see...

I went from this....:Normal
From Tuesday.

To this....:Painnn
From Today after surgery
look at my eyes..they are in so much pain

i'll struggle to finish my part though
i can't let you down

i'm sorry..
i'll try though
really..sick
high fevers - cold sweats - bloody eyes - pain - everything...it's horrible
I'm gonna try though

Rudy, send me what you've done so far. I want to see it.

If that's enough to get you through i'll use it for the collab as your part. There's no need for you to work at the computer with eyes like "that".

send your work in progress to my msn addy. If all comes to worse i'll help you fix it up.

Alright I got up to 10 seconds.
There's a guy walking to his computer; and it says "YOU GOT MAIL"
Than he checks it; It easily zooms in and he starts to check it.

My plan is for all these emotions take over and attack the PC screen and stuff.
But that's so far away.

I'm gonna finish this.
I can.
I can't disappoint you.

My eyes are even worse today;
More Swollen; And even more bloody. This really sucks.
So many appointments I had to do; I shouldn't even signed up for this collab.
But I'm not dropping out now.
I've been it for so long now; I gotta finish.

I'm gonna try to work on it right now.

Today is the day I will be done! Yay. Yeah. I'll be quiet now.

Get better Rudy :)

Yay, I'm done! Time to send it to you.

Thanks, but i don't think you realised that you sent me the .swf file twice and didn't actually send me an .fla.

Send me your .fla file. I don't have the first clue about decompiling swf's so i'll need your .fla. I can't add your animation without that.

It looks good, by the way. All this pre-anticipation wasn't wasted.

Rudy, i guess it's up to you. If you think you can finish this animation within the next three days, go for it. I'll just let you know that just about everything is ready to go. We're waiting on three animators who i know are going to submit their cartoon (because i've seen it). I'm waiting on:

-TheWingedHeart (seen his swf but not his fla)
-Rudy (your eyes are redder than the flash 8 app icon. get better soon, man!)
-zoy (massive improvement over 3 months. remarkable i must say...)

As for the other authors... I don't know anymore, but here's another list of authors with outstanding work:

-LordOfKetchup (are you still alive?)
-dog (...what about you?)
-Honto (...he's dead.)

Six authors. Three that're very close to finishing and three who... well... probably won't even be around to wish us good luck. Hopefully i'm being prejudiced.

Well, i'll be waiting on the last few parts. Hopefully i get to see them soon. Good luck, everyone!

THREE DAYS TO GO!

Massimo--

P.S.: I've been getting a lot of Private Messages about the Collab's release date. I specified it clearly and i'll do so again: The Collab's Release date is set to November 5th. Now you see why i asked you guys bto be finished by October 31st. I need some time too after all... I have twelve (or more) parts to edit, test and publish.

I'll try sending it again, and for anyone else who wants to see it, yeah, click here

Massimo--

I'll get it finished.
But my frame by frame animation won't be as good I'm sorry.
but the eyes are so messed up.

I'll finish it though.
as soon as i wake up in the morning I'm working on it.
I need rest tonight...

Alright; Well here's the deal.
My video won't be 3 parts like I said. It may just be a 10-30 second part. By the rate I'm going the finished product would be about 30-40 seconds oddly enough..hopefully thats not too much but it's gonna happen.

Here's one problem that you may not like Stoner.
My walking cycle for my main character is tweened since it was easier for me to do that at the moment. I don't know how I'm gonna redo a walking cycle right now.. but if you wanna keep the tweened one or I'll take a shot at a FBF one right now...hopefully the tweened cheesy one with do if I shine up everything else. Or maybe I could just maybe..cut off the bottom as he walks so it looks better and hide the actually horrible animation effect with maybe...a zoomed in walking cycle so it looks better. So it's like an optical illusion.

Well I'll have some examples tomorrow and ask what you like best so let's see.
I'm sorry but FBF is gonna be sorta hard. I got some already made; but everything in my lfie is catching up to me right now it's crazy. My eyes are so bad right now it's not even funny. I'm gonna try though. I won't disappoint you I promise.
I'm just sorry this had to happen.

It will be finished though.
I swear it. =]

Oddly enough my eyes are worse than yesterday.
See in the picture:
Eye - Day 2
My eyes are more bloody; and more swollen.
This is interesting...let's see what tomorrow brings...
So It's day 2 from the surgery.
And I'm in SO MUCH pain right now.
The swollen is worse; the blood is terrible. And I hardly can keep my eyes open due to all the pain.

I strain my eyes to type this as we speak. Pain medicine doesn't even help it makes it worse.

Here's my plan.

Every day I'm gonna make a short video describing how I feel and I'm gonna make a documentary about my surgery. So here's the deal; Over the 3 weeks of recovering [21 days] I'll be making screenshots and videos on my progress of my recovery. So this should be interesting.

So when I'm finished there will be a finished product about everything. On which I went through and what I'm going through. So this should be really good.

See you guys soon.
Wish me best of luck?

I may sound crazy with this project of mine...But I make everything into a project. Just as some memorable thing. It will be released soon. Around...November 10th, maybe?

Hopefully.
This sounds interesting
-Rudy
<3

I'll be better soon. 3 weeks of recovery.
i love you all :]

man, rudy.... what the hell did they do to your eyes? isn't surgery supposed to HELP you? im impressed, man... you're still working on your movie with your eyes like that. i salute you!

Argh. Only a couple more days and this thing will finally be released. So exciting.
