"improving for 2008? so so so..."

what could I say.
you yold me people says that you speak so slowly and I think they are write.
even if foreign people want to see it I think the rythm of your voice must be more fast because, even if we don't understand everything, it will maintain the attention.
BUT!!! (there is a but) it's we don't understand everything so, I think, the best thing to do is to put a box somewhere in the screen for the subtitles and a button to pass to the next paragraph (where I look an english flash cartoon it's my favorite way to understand).
for the draw, personaly, I think there's a lot of differents kind of draw and the way of doing shades that you show is not my favorite so I think you must show 2 or 3 different way to do it.
I think to put the menu in the beginning could be a better Idea and different section for the tuto but not like the others (symbols, action-script etc...)
something like: background (where you talk about sky, symbols...) shades, spécials effects ...

To finish, I think it's really necessary to show all the screen to explain all that you explain.

that's it

I hope I helped you

see ya

"Good tutorial, room for improvement"

So, overall I liked this tutorial, if everyone read it almost no submissions would get blamed. However, since you are planning on resubmitting it I'm going to focus on how I think it could be improved.

1) I felt like it moved a bit slow overall, maybe it was just the fact that most of the information wasn't new to me, but I felt like the text and the narrator went very slowly. I would re-narrate it, a little bit faster and a little bit more passionately. Also, as someone already suggested you should have arrows to allow people to skip ahead if they've already finsihed reading the text.

2) Although the information provided was good I felt like their somehow just wasn't quite enough. I know this is supposed to be a very basic tutorial, but I think if you included a few more advanced ideas, like shading or 3-D drawing perhaps that would also help get it a better score.

3) I think you should spend a bit more time on the car scene, it would have been nice to see you go further in making it better, maybe making the car shrink as it goes closer to the horizon, add reflections to the cars wind shield, or add spinning wheels. I donno I'm just throwing ideas out there take it or leave it.

4) Perhaps you should create a main menu and then break the tutorial into several different sections it would allow authors who were only looking for a particular part of the tutorial to access it.

These are just a few of my ideas, I hope that some of them where helpful :)

"I make good art i3wedficj"

Not that bad of a tutorial at all. It has good information in it for people trying to make artwork with such things in them. The graphics were nice, , and I liked the color scheme.
The flashed images were cool, and the music added to the abstract
Well, overall you did a pretty smooth job on animating this dude both in his walking and the talking. The clip was kind of funny too.
It's just a test, so what can I really say? It's very very short and is basically just a show of your graphics, which I'm not a fan of people doing. If you are going to make a full movie with this, it will probably turn out good, but this is just boring.
This was absolutely a very fun simulation game. I found it amazing the amount of reality there was in the game. You not only had to plan what to plant and how to spend your money, but also had to watch the health of the family members. A very addicting game to play and very hard to master, but still rather fun.
The icons and such were really small in the upper left corner. I had a hard time reading some of the text there. It would be nice if you could make that a little better.
