Seems pretty legit. And since this is in Fluidanims, not Stickpage, you still have a choice of doing RHG battles that aren't in the new latest system. Sure it won't affect your actual RHG score on the newest system, but animating fullbody is only optional. And points were made : Sticks is just some excuse of animating lazy stuff, though you can do the inthinkable if you are to execute them correctly. But in all serious, I really don't care about the fullbody business. Though I'm gonna have to change up my RHG a bit.

Fullbody isn't that hard, from what I have seen. You could, in theory, animate a stickfigure then draw over the stick's actions with a fullbodied person. That is what I am doing with the stick rhg i was going to post. Either way, I am not going to spam Stone or Jeff about this because they don't need the added distraction. If you're mad at this then obviously you would rather not work to make a good animation than an easy simple one. When I was on FA I was the worst animator to be animating stick, I was ridiculed constantly to the point I actually left. While away, though, I came to find that while I didn't like how the said users treated me, they were right in a way. I needed to get better and take my time to make an animation worth their time to view. I, for one, welcome the challenge! I think you would need to ask Jeff poison if claymation is ok, in my opinion that would be kick ass to see though.

Thats called storyboarding but most of the idiots here don't care cause their to busy complaining about the simplest shit.

Yes we have skinja, but that is why this thread has over 500, close to 600 posts. Because many don't know if this is, in fact, an elaborate April Fool's Joke.

Well isn't storyboarding kinda like planing ahead your animation so that you don't just go and wing it, can't you use sticks for that?

Either way, I am preparing for this, if this is the case. I don't know nor do I really care. So now that we are all calm now, how is this new system to be implemented? I am assuming that this will be a batch update or something to get the entire thing up by the date?

Well I really don't know what to do I mean should I animate stickfigures or try fullbody. well right now I am just watching people do shit, finding out how to get into the dojo, and listening to gnyse's music.

I know I don't animate and I don't really have a lot to say in this matter, but what will happen to these forums? After the merge I've heard about, it seems everyone's settles down nicely, but bringing FA back, and to even higher standards, sounds kind of ridiculous. I trust Stone and Jeff, but this just doesn't seem like a good idea... Animating fullbody when at least half, if not more, of this community can't even animate stickfigures to what they would like? It seems unfair to just throw this on them...

There's my "rant"
