Hi all,
This isn't mine, it came in one of those forward/joke emails sent to my fiancee the other day. I figured I would post it here as you artist-types might appreciate its complexity. :)

and you know what the funny thing is, problably you can repeat this animation at all four sides ;)
-
It's from the SomethingAwful forums, they've started a new one like this just recently, the old one was also made into an YTMND (http://blueballfixed.ytmnd.com/)
Users got to make a square part where balls entered from the top and right, and leaving to the left and bottom, then they stuck it together :P
-
Yeah, these are cool. The YTMND mesmerized me the first time I saw it :p

I'd love to see one of these that didn't have shitty art...

That's a topic for "Challenges and activities" then:)

Zoggles used to make this kind of never-ending rubberband with balls animations in isometric (impossible) perspective. That was pretty sexy.
-
I'd say making a beautiful one of these would be a great challenge.
Let's do it!

wow that page was eating up all my cpu power lol
we cud have one similar one on pixelation too :D
-
I'd fully be up for something like this, but instead one something like those videos where lots of little things act sort of like dominos (I cant remember the name of the dude famous for these videos) but where like something will hit a ball and the ball will turn a fan on and the fan will blow a dart and the dart will hit a switch etc, and at the end it just does something like raise a pixelation flag :)
-
you mean something like that game - The Incredible Machine
u actually get to do cartoonish stuff like that in it :P
-
It would be hard.
-
wouldnt be that hard, say we all have to make a 200x200 animated gif, first person does someone rolling a ping-pong ball across to the right, next person makes the pingpong ball do something in his square, next person continues.
we wouldnt even have to stick them together as one gif (although we probably should so the timing works out :P)
-
A fixed number of frames and some coordination between the artists regarding where the ball (or whatever) enters and leaves the image and there should be no troubles at all stitching it together.

It'd be an interesting activity to say the least...

Yes, sounds neat. I suggest a member designs a default ball and splits the image into an easy grid with about the same amount going on in each. Sounds like it would be fun. :0'
