I don't particularly want to get drawn into this, but I'd like to point out that it is possible to make little black squares in flash and position them wherever you want; ergo you cannot make any easytoon effects that are better than what could be done in flash.

As-good-as is subjective and whether any given individual can do it is debatable, but I just wanted to point out that small logical fallacy that the easytoon defenders seem to keep making.

I've seen really good Easytoon effects. As far as I'm concerned, it was better then what most people do here with flash. But as I said before, It's all about someones opinion. Maybe people like the.. old pixel-ish look to Easytoon, and some don't.

Seriously? Ani's is the worst out of everyone's >_>

Ani didn't have to color anything, didn't have any movements whatsoever to criticize (The movements that she did have were God aweful). No background, no story-line whatsoever. It didn't make sense. It was a stick figure that barely moved and a shit load of fail effects.

Don't be an effects fag >_> Especially with easytoon because it is retarded.

Tell me where in that post I said easytoon doesn't take skill?

When referring to effects, easytoon sucks because you can the same effects in flash as you can easytoon, but not the other way around. Perfect example, an explosion. Pretty simple, basic, easy explosions should consist of about 8 different colors and a few frames of animation. If you could do it in easytoon, then you must be good. If easytoon effects are good and take skill, then I'm amazing with a pencil :/ I could hand draw a better explosion than you could make in easytoon. The program has way too many restrictions to make a good explosion.

I'm just going to go ahead and insert an entry in here to punctuate our off topicness.

Yeah, I was just trying to finish something after the last update. I am aware of 6 areas of what is not quite shakiness but is short and unnecessary changes of momentum in the blue guy and the orange guy is just plain crappy. Could've been worse, but I know I could have made it so much better if I hadn't lost interest. Considered flashing to maintain quality but I didn't think it was worth the effort it would've taken to get the dimensions right and everything.

Arch, your animation was complete bullshit and I think you can somewhat do better. Effects in easytoon CAN be done, if you know how to do them. They could even some times look alot better than flash effects. It's all about how people look at it, it's not like your opinion means it's right. Nigga, take a break. Also, that's like saying FLASH DOESNT TAKE SKILL BECAUSE BASICALLY ALL YOU DO IN EASYTOON IS DRAW FRAMES LIKE IN FLASH OMG LIKE NO WAY!!
Fucking retard, stop being a stupid stupido.

Tortuga, you don't have to listen to arch. just ignore him.

dfr, those are nice examples, but there are lots more AMAZING things done on easytoon.

Poppet, stop singing. my ears exploded.

I agree, seriously Arch angel, your extremely arrogant. Your nowhere near as good as you think you are. Its called ignorance, everyone gets it at sometime.

Your sarcasm is hillarious.
I actually said that effects in easytoon take no skill :/
If it wasn't obvious that that was my point, my bad. Effects don't take any effort whatsoever in easytoon.

I won't regret anything :/

Thank you, good sir, but it kind of does. Which took me a while to actually admit. Effects in easytoon don't, though.

He can do what he wants. He's a fuzzy kittybear.

False .

I have Astros. They're pretty beast. Especially because they vibrate and you can control what you hear more. Soudns cool tho.

It really is a shame to have to argue with you guys just because I disagree with two statements. One sentence caused you all to make 2 pages of hate towards me, and you misinterpreted what I said >_> omfg.

The only person in the competition that probably would beat me is Cronos, but his isn't nearly long enough or as complex. Or on topic. . .

Yes! 2-D Banned the asshole.

Seriously? Ani's is the worst out of everyone's >_>

In my opinion I thought I did well with my animation. That's a really silly thing to say though, because your wrong. Just because this animation was made in Easytoon doesn't make it bad. It's still a frame-by-frame animation. If you think that an animation in Easytoon can't beat one in flash, buckle up to be wrong.
Some Epic Easytoon Animations that pwns Arch-Angle:

I did notice that I should have made some more movements, I was working on making a stylized animation and making a nice looking animation. Im glad you guys like my effects =P

To everything AA said: Multilockon. End discussion.

Multilockon was my inspiration in my animation, YAH!!! :D

Nah. Easytoon isn't my particular cup of tea :/
I like detailed animations that have to have a lot of time put into them in order to be very good, but this isn't the place for me to discuss why I prefer flash over easytoon =/
