in the description you said you borrowed your sister's tablet and it mentioned vanharik so I wondered if she might be the one.

your friend must have been happy to see her character in motion

this is perhaps why animations are so adored in DA

OH!! ...;; I might wrote the description wrong;;;
er..........well
maybe they like animations......cuz they move
rather than..pictures where they are still
Or maybe some are amazed of how pictures are moving, I dunno +_+
HMM...perhaps becuase animation has music?? voices?
and because it's actually showing the plot Hmmm.............;;
I don't know which one tells a better story
but I think pictures make ppl curious +_+
unlike animation that actaully shows the whole thing;;

something that moves is a bit more each to catch attention.

having a motionless drawing moving with life is always thrilling to the eyes.

that is only if the person is able to enjoy the animations simply.

someone who want to enjoy the animation more deeper will ask for plot and such. but DA is an art site. it is each to find many who are willing to enjoy the animation visually

lol, that's a good explaination ;;
it's hard for me to word such things, but I guess it's just that I don't know much abuot art yet :0
so I gotta learn more +_+

well, I dno't find many ppl who enjoys the animation other than visual
because there are WAY TOO MANY complainers
that says "why is this on today's page?? look at the quality"
and sure, I'm not the master of animation yet, but I just dislike it when ppl judge it by the quality ;;
and those kind of ppl would like the animation with awesome quality but poor concept and plot ._.

some ppl compare me with some other flash animators cuz their quality is better;;;;;;;
does quality count as much as the idea of the movie?

art without idea is pointless. art without quality is shit.

both are needed with good balance

the reason people complain is because it is on front page so they expect it to be in high standard; it increase the importance of quality. and low quality seem such a little effort but gotten shit load of fav because because it was visually entertained. it cause them to think of "unfair advantage"

I blame system of DA and your fans. most probably enjoy your art visually and humor, not necessary the quality of "specific amount of movements" and "plot"

I saw your animations, most are simply animated, and some even look rushed. but you have good ideas. the only reason you get bitched on is because it gets on front page. the concept itself is decent.

well, right now I'm trying my best to make it neat......and clean
and with effort, yes not sloppy;;
it's just that I have such impatience for finishing it up quick...;;
I've seen many ppl blaming DA system for this stupid faving thing
and I think I'm getting into it too >_>
I see loads of poops on front page sometimes
liike, this one CRAPPY animation got on today's fav, but I saw taht it was funny : /
but then I guess that person received "OMG THIS IS SLOOPPY" comment as well :/

and thanx about my animation
all I need to do now
is practice good animating :nod:
