This is not "Lestat's Lurkers Lane" So yes you are expected to spam.

Wow. That sounds boring. It would be one post and then a bunch of lurkers just staring at each other.

If they are Lurking then they cant see each other.

Lestat's lurker's lane..sounds ok...it would be fun to open up a thread on that like tap the tea but no one would post because their lurking

[Lestat]

Well its Friday, POETSday, and I'm going to have another shot at that elusive beast called "social life". See ya!

[slade]

Bye Lestat..*looks at him suspiciously* knows it was an excuse to get out of spaming

[Gunofgod]

Let's take our spam to the tap and tea

[Ravager]

Now why would you want to do something like that? Tsk.

Is that supposed to be deliberately hard to respond to?

I was just shocked to hear that kind of talk......[innocently]:who would want to spam the Tap the Tea?:mischief:

[Ravager]

*raises hand* That'd be me then.
Though I wouldn't abandon the SF at the same time...

Me too....shhhhh

Im currently working on getting a new avatar...I love the one I have now but I feel like changing it for a while I'll probably switch back to my old one if I get bored....I still wish I could get one like yours that moves....Did you find out how to make one Rav, by any chance?

[Ravager]

Yeah, I did. You take an existing picture (or make one) and then it can be animated. There's quite a few functions.
Did you have any pictures in mind for animating (and what you'd want the anim. to do)?

[slade]

the picture has to look like what?, in order for it to work

[Ravager]

Well, it'd have to be 75x75 pixels or less to work as an avatar (like your current one is- though I could probably resize for you).
I suppose any picture would work, just as long as you don't have anything too complicated in mind, I'm not not good yet.
So, just find a picture and say what you would like it to do. That's what I need to work with.

Thats what I dont understand ...lets say I gave you my avatar this one I have now what could you do to make it move? Im guessing it has to look something like yours right..

[Ravager]

I suppose for your current one it would be possible to make the helm turn around, say, look in the current direction, then turn around, maybe pause and then turn back.
The only problem is I wouldn't know what the other side would look like, though it might be possible to 'flip' the picture horizontally so it looks correct (don't worry about that though).

Say, you find a picture of some character holding a sword, it'd be possible to animate the sword so it moves left to right, maybe even swings around in a circle.

[slade]

Oh I see gotcha.....now you said something about makeing one too, how would I go about doing this?

[Ravager]

If you're any good at drawing stuff, you could use some kind of drawing program or scan something onto a computer that could be animated.
Flash (that's the animation program) also allows you to draw stuff on it, but there are better programs for the actual drawing part.
If you get hold of Flash I can get you some tutorials for it, but it would be easier if I tried to animate something for you.
