Hoof. This is gonna be a lot. About when I was 9, I would just browse around on my Fathers computer. I discovered what pivot was, and was hooked. I'd always ask my Dad if I could install it like it was a big deal, but when he finally let me, that's what started it all. But I grew tired after at least a year. It didn't work for me. I wanted things to move more...fluently, I wanted their bodies to be more loose. Which is when I discovered Flash. I always wondered how they made the animations, and games on sitckpage, but when I finally found the source, I had to find it. Considering I couldn't pay, I had to find something close to it. Which is when I used EZtoon, and loved it. I wasn't that bad, which was the best part. This is when I finally started seeing all of the amazing animations, EndosTV, J0mm, Terkoiz, all of them! They all made a big impact on the animations I make, even though they're not great. So then, I finally got Flash 8. And that's where I am now. Just animating. Doing what I like.

Back in... 2006... I found a bunch of pivot animations online and thought they were so cool. I downloaded pivot and screwed around with it for a while, nothing big, but I developed that interest for stick figure animation there. In 2008 Flipnote was released for the DS and it was a neat little tool that was really fun to mess with, I progressed a lot through that little app, until I got flash in 2009 from an online class, and moved into Fluidanims. From there I just kept progressing until I got where I am now... Fluidanims was my home oAo I still miss you

Stickpage is awesome though. Like it more here than I thought I would. And that's my story :D

I was in a computer school 1st grade, then I saw flash cs3 and made some kind of animation, a running stickfigure, and then I found pivot and used it for a year, after that I stopped pivot and got to flash 8 and It was amazing...

If I would be ask:
Well when I was watching some animes and seeing those epic move that leave me thinking. "what if i made my own animation?" than I sow a Sprite animation I was surprised that even some sprite can make some epic move and style. at that time I decided to search the program they use to animate then I made my first sprite animation. then i came across the stick figures at first I was like "Hehehe this guys are noobs" :D then i sow Hyun's and Terkoiz's animations I was like "Waw Cool Really Damn Epic" than I sow the program they use. so i switch program and make my first stick figure and so on... That started my story :D

Back in the day, I used to love stickfigures. I drew them all the time, I just loved them. They were so simplistic, but still so awesome.
One day I found the video, topstick. I watched it, and it had most of my favourite stickfigures I've seen in videos. I wanted to see more of the creator of this video. So, I checked out all the other videos. I saw all the FLLFFL battles. I saw them all, and saw more RHG animators. I became curious of what RHG was, so I looked it up. I really wanted to join RHG, so I needed a free program. I saw the video Needle vs Ace, I searched up the program, saw that it was free, and downloaded it. I practiced, and practiced, and practiced, until I became good, and then I bought flash, and became better.
:D

Every time I start getting bored animating, I just browse Youtube and start looking at the many RHG fights that are out there. Eventually I get inspired to keep trying to animate. It doesn't help that I don't have patience. ^^;

I thought stick figures were cool, so I googled stick figure animations, saw Bubblemania, Literally inspired me to start animating, I love him so much for that masterpiece.
