ahhh, dude. watch it. I turn it dark grey. Then light grey. then white. so it merges with the back ground.
Like a fade. frame by frame. only needs something like 3-4 frame for a dissapear.
oh btw
against something like a blakc background you will need to make the colours fade towards that colour. So say you have a white stick on a blakc background. make it light grey. then dark grey then black. and it has dissapeared.

Help? msn me if you're stuck

This is crap.

First of all, this is totally unexplanatory. This is literally a video of you pivoting.

Second, the punch is shit. Totally weak punch. Something most people don't get is that when you punch, you put the arm back where it was, else it looks like a sissy fist. And two sucessive punches with the same style never look good.

Third, the song was so goddamned overused and unfitting it was funny.

Fourth, when doing a tutorial, don't write on Notepad what you're doing. Add the commentary on Movie Maker, so it's actually readable, and keep it short.

I couldn't cut out the notepad shite. cause movie maker the peice of shit crashed every five seconds. so i stuck all the footage together and left it with that. What would you know about making tutorials any way?
The punch was absoloutly fine. I would quite like to see you post a pivot punch. Do not crit so hard. I know its a shit tut. But it shows what I do. To get a successful pivot.
Read the name? Ai?!

so you have like 4000 posts. Doesn't mean you can flamm any respectable member. Try and say something nice? Yes?
derk..

No offense, Pf0, but you need to learn to take some criticism.

For one, don't combat someone's criticism with the lame "I'd like to see you do better" type comment. It's juvenile and how are you so sure he can't do better?

Second, he wasn't "flamming" you. All he said were instances you need improving on and ultimately said the tutorial was shit, which you agreed on anyway. Name one instance in that post where he attacked you in any way. And I hate it when people with a low post count use someone's high post count as an insult to them. Don't do that either.

Third, don't make excuses as to why something sucks. I mean, if you knew the tutorial was shit from the start, why post it? I mean, after all, it is a tutorial, which is something made to help people, not show off your skills.

I think you've spent so much time getting praise and pats on the back, Pf0, that you forgot how to take a little criticism. Don't take this the wrong way, you're a great animator, but even greats need a little critique every now and then.
