I'm so tragically unfunny but oh well:


EDIT: Wait wait, I suddenly had an idea for improvements!

I need it.

Now.

Leave that last frame on for about 2 seconds, and you're gold. Also, some 'tweening' frames would help. A few more states of the E turning and the dwarf getting crushed would be best.

Oh wow, I'm glad you like it! :D Well, I don't think I can animate it myself, my trauma with flash/animation was brief, frustrating and still runs deep.
*twitch twitch... sob... *
Eh, I guess i can try again, who knows it'll be less of a violent tragedy this time =)

I planned on making it continuous, a neverending dwarf-munch rampage, but not sure if that's a significant improvement.
I'll stuff some more frames in it this weekend ^^ maybe add in some bones and chunks (the little 2 thingies). What's tweening?

(Be)-'tweening'.  Adding more frames to make a smoother animation.

Yes, I also was abused by Flash. Don't worry, we're in this together.

Tho it might be time to try that out again...

Wait, is that an Elf mason eating a dwarf... or is it an elephant crushing a dwarf? It's hard to tell.

I've got a few ideas (some more do-able then others)

1. 7 Goblins try to kill a Dwarven Peasant, so the peasant runs off of a cliff and walks to the other side of a canyon, the goblins follow falling to their horrible death *Insert Maniac Laugh Here*.

2. Legendary Leaver-Puller (flashing black) also a lable would be handy.

3. Peasant pulls a leaver, opens a door, then a boulder crushes him.

4. One so long its not even do-able...

btw, how to you do these animations?

The 10000 year world would bother me.
Not because of the memory requirements, though they would be huge, but because technology wouldn't advance.
10000 years of the same swords and shields sort of tech is goofy.

I'd love a picture of a noble surviving some random deathtrap. I don't care what. Just make it good!

It's Dwarves not dwarfs.

If I ask reeeally reaaaally nice-like, can I get a web with nobledwarves suspended in it and a GCS eating one?

I will give you a !!!=Dwarven Wine Roast=!!! in exchange. It has bands of microcline. And is adorned with spikes of pig tail cloth.

For flavor.

Ruination, I hate to resurrect a thread that has been so heavily put to rest ( a full month! Goodness.)  but I have a queestion. I'd like to know how to get my blasted avatar to have a 'null' background, so that it blends in properly with the forum itself. Like all of your avatars, for instance.

To Reasonableman: Screw 'null background, I think your avatar dwarf noble needs a monocle.

Hell yes.

EDIT:

It is hella hard to draw a monocle when the pixels are as big as the lens.
