wow so many pages in a couple hours
lol i read the whole argument, dw zed, i see your point :D
its not so much a critic mistake as a misunderstanding i guess :/
(but yea I actually didn't realise that he was going around the tree, but lets not get into that shall we :D)
oh yea btw moch, when when he hits the blue guy to the ground, its stiff. and when the red guy flies in, he is REALLY stiff, no movement at all. make he come in a different position and end at the black guy in the kicking position. also, when the black guy finally hits the red guy to the ground the black guy doesn't follow through properly, so make him ease at the end with a followthrough. then the blue guy. when he gets hit by the black guy for the last time, the reaction isn't real enough. so yea just think about that, thats all I could see :D

also at the top, your animation i like the effects, but some pretty wise people told me the effects come LATERZ
so go read some of the tuts, zeds one on easing and someones (don't remember who) physics tutorial are really good and really help. you can also go to darkdemon.org and go look at Bahas tutorial or Darren as some people know him. his tutorial is MASSIVE and contains a lot of good points and helps explain a lot of things you can probably think of when dealing with pivot, so yea go take a look there and remember to ease everything, every joint on the body. if you don't know what easing is go to the tut here on SPP :D

wow thats a pretty good first anim, but you need some work with the easing and beginnings. like when hes running up and jumping it doesn't look realistic. Zed has another tut on walking, and I might make one about jumping (but im a noob so don't expect it to come anytime soon :P)
also you need to make everything move from one movement to the next. I someone flips you need to see the flip, your first flip is good, but when he changes position, he changes it without easing. the final landing is good, but it could use some easing around the legs. they feel the most impact so make sure you let people see it :D
i cant see anything right now and im reading manga so maybe ill look again later :P

dude, you don't need to do that. If you read the thread "This is how you post your animations" then you would A) know you don't need to do that and B) would not be considered n00b for not reading stuff first.
Go to imageshack.us then create an account. After creating the account upload your gif, then share it (right click the image in "My Images") then put the first link in the Reply box here. If you don't get it after those instructions you are nub for life. :)

umm... it isn't working. It says that I need 20 posts.

(I had to change some of what you said in the quote because of 20 post rule)

Just replace "URL" with the URL of your animation... God!

Sometimes it doesn't let you anyway without the twenty posts. Easiest way is to make a post and then edit the animation in afterwards - the software doesn't scan edits for URL's for some reason.
