Filling in time..

Love that little animation Lonk!
Using the dark background makes it more effective and very clear.
Might try another myself one day soon.
Thank's for sharing.

'91? I think I wasn't even born yet ... .
Wow, that's amazing, Lonnie. I didn't know you were doing these things or even remotely interested in them. The colors and movements are perfect. I like the acceleration when the ball is hit by the hammer. So what program did you use to create this? I remember a site where the author has some graphics made by hand coding the placement and colors of the pixels, the way they did it with the very early video games, but I doubt your pics were done the REALLY hard way...
I'm gonna need an open brain surgery if I try to duplicate something like this...

Wow, Lonk, cool and impressive. Sorry to hear you have not been well, hope all is on the road to improvement now, that is.

Yeah, Gman, I played with all sorts of things back in the day. This ani was made with AutoDesk Animator which made a .flc file. I converted it to .gif in '99, though I don't recall what proggy I used for that. I was surprised how lean the .gif is (89Kb) especially considering the gradients, smooth movement and number of frames.

Your animation and Kiwi's last one just gave me an idea. But don't hold your breath just yet...
