1- Ahh, of course. Making sprite sheets isn't animating.
2- How do I know you don't suck at animating.
3- If you can't prove that you are good by posting a animation, then your not.
4- If you don't animate, then your not good at it.
5- I never met someone that thinks so much higher of himself then what he really is, your the first -_-

None of that is animated. I must have been copying and pasting the same frame for all of those keyframes. Nothing in it is animated.

That isn't animated either.

Nothing in that file is animated.
Sprite sheets are still animated.
I'd be more than willing to post more, but it's going to be a week or two until I get my desktop pc back :/
2- You don't right now. Majority of the uploading sites I used to use shut down, so the links are broken. Plus, why do I care if you think I'm good at animating?
3- Obviously. You're stupid to take someone's word. I've lost a lot of support and recognition because I started making games around this time last year and began to stray from stick figures a lot. Plus I was working with 3DS Max over last summer a lot.
4-That isn't necessarily true. An artist can recognize a lot of motion and stances of people and animals, and could probably animate something fairly decent on their first attempt. There's always the whole having to get used to an animating program and not everyone knows what easing, spacing, etc is. If you're trying to make some sort of reference to me in saying that I don't animate, so I'm not good at it, then I find you very cute and funny. I animate, I'm fairly decent at it. You wouldn't know because I haven't posted any of my full body animations because I eventually stopped working on them :/
5- I don't think that much of myself as an animator. I'm fairly decent at it I guess, then again, my standards for a good animation are way higher than anyone that you will probably ever talk to. I know how good I am, I know my strength's and my weaknesses, and I'm probably one of the only people on this site that doesn't rely on criticism because I'm skilled enough to point out all of my flaws in one of my animations. That doesn't mean that I won't get one of my MSN buddies to tell me if they like it or would refer a different style. Actually, the reason I hype myself up so much is because I loath comments such as "OMFG THAT R TH BEST ANIM EV0R!!1!!!!! IT R TH TRU". I don't strive for you all to think my work is good. I would much rather have a thread where everyone says something like, "The animation wasn't as good as you hyped it up to be, maybe try -insert thought here-", rather than 20 posts of, "Cool animation, dude". If I quote or comment to an animation like that, then I would reply with a simple "thank you" or something, and not think anything of it. I like to debate theories with other animators, not have random people that don't mean shit to me praise my work.
This is why I think you're fun.
You know nothing of me, yet you assume a lot just because I love messing with people =D
