Strange request, but it would be hard.. maybe if it doesn't look bad expanded.

Raab - strange request - see THIS thread for an explanation.

Indeed, I don't understand that.

Don't worry about it for now Raab - we'll talk later ...

I gave animating a try.

edit: This is a 'rough draft'; meaning this is one of my first tries, my 2nd to be exact, but its easy to use, if wanted, I'll make a guide to using it.

wow he looks really mad...good Job

He looks aggro-constipated. His body moves around a lot, and the fire looks stiff. But don't get me wrong, I like it. Looking forward to some more of your animations (nice avatar ).

Quality is garbage because it doesn't let me animate. png, as far as i know anyhow.

But the original image is quality

Thanks for feedback/criticism.

edit: To make it better, I should center the whole animation lol; Figure out how to make the quality so less.

*Waits on constructive criticism from Unislash.*

i really like that animation :] very good 2nd try! the way i animate is through photoshop and its a big hastle i would really like to learn some new methods

my first animated thing is actually my siggy, its alot simpler then animating mobs... hehehe i tried to animate mobs before and ... i think its better not to show
those! :] what program are you using to animate?

Hehe, I randomly searched 'animator' and downloaded Animator 9. xD

But my bigger problem is, I deleted all my work :/ so I gotta find a way to get them all back with top quality, Unislash should have most of them.

thats the problem i seem to have as well, i lost all of my work :[.. i just got photoshop cs3 put on my labtop literally at 11pm last night

maybe i should google animation tools and see if i find a neat one :] if it works very well ill share it with you to see if you like it as well

alright thanks; i never did update the elf section of my sticky, so im missing around 20 frames

I need to go check my actual elf thread.

I keep all of the things you send me. So, if you've sent it to me, i have it . As to the animations, they look good... sorta . Align them and they will look better. Anyhoo, that is purely conceptual for our viewing pleasure . If you like, i could definitely make a nice one so you can show people .

And raab, we really need to get some of your stuff in the game. Your work is A++ quality and certainly deserves inclusion. Perhaps myst, sherock, or subaru have some time to teach you about the animation helper and/or help finish the mobs. I would absolutely hate to have you loose your creativity by tying you down to finish your mobs, so i am hesitant to require this of you, but if we are going to see any of your amazing mobs ingame, it seems they must be substantially rotated :/. In the most ideal of situations, i think you would be the one creating the original images (as you are extraordinarily good at doing one or two frames before getting too bored), and then have it rotated to a satisfactory degree by a third party.

PS: Sorry for the big words... reading a book that uses quite advanced diction throughout, and it's growing on me... a lot...

Well, I been working with it alot lately, I learned the whole concept of frames.

FRAMES HELP ALOT (frames being like lines and stuff)

And your idea sounds wonderful, about the third party rotating

awsome job raab..i like what uve done the monsters and items look pretty cool.. the dragon moving wouldnt exactly fit in with the whatever.. and maybe after i get me new comp so i can do stuff again i may use some of ur idea's in a Daimonin beta i will be trying to creat
