Just finished it, its only short, and decided to upload it (after figuring out how to :D). Its not exactly a masterpiece... but.... here it is! :)

Tell me what you think, for a first animation. I dont mind criticism, but a positive review would be nice :D
Wow, it looks so different to how it did in pivot, it wasn't as smooth lol.

EDIT: Sorry for wrong thread/section, on tutorials it says "Submit your own or read to learn"?

I'll move it. Really it should be in the beginners thread but if you hadn't found the entire pivot section you probably wouldn't know that.

On topic: You need to use a lot more frames. You should show all of the stages of the movement. You also need easing.

You go to "community animations" off the main page.

How about instead of wasting your time on a crappy program like pivot you go and get flash???

Unless you have the money to buy it socks. Anyways you should add more frames because its not that smooth.

Look at it this way. The people who get flash are the ones that were able to determine that flash was better and how to get it. This naturally filters out all but the upper quartile of members. Pivot exists to keep the other 75% segregated.
