Have no clue how how to actually create it - don't have any graphics programs on this comp anyway - but an animated gif of a net being bricked up. :)

Hmmmm, let me see. Maybe I can get something done up.

Cool....do I get to use it or just get credit for the idea? ;)

Because, as previously mentioned, Aeryn needs an avatar. :help:

You can use it. I already have the goal bricked up, now I need to work on the animation. Hopefully it will fit in the file size limit. Otherwise, I have a few ideas to get it to work. Maybe I'll make several versions.

SWEET! If the animation gets too big I'll settle for a bricked-up net. :D

A small preview. This is going to look cool, but I may need to do a row at a time just to get the animation small enough.

Wait a sec, I've got a really cool animation idea that should work. Give me a little bit.

That's great - totally what I had in my head!! :yo:

If you don't have it finished when I go to lunch, I'll drop the non-animated wall into my profile. :)

I was just thinking...if you can do it...alternate the brick-laying directions?

So the first row goes -------->
And the next row goes <--------

And it ends up "s-ing" it's way to the top.

Just a thought :D


EDIT: I'm on a "foreign" computer for about another 90 minutes or so....take your time. :)

Okay, I'm hungry and need to eat lunch, but I threw this together really quick. I think it turned out okay. After lunch I may touch it up and work on the wall building ones...

I Like That!!

EDIT: Screw the foreign computer....they won't care if I download a picture. ;)

I couldn't leave without fixing the timing a bit. Reupload the animation, it looks much nicer when it's not in turbo mode.

LOL - Yeah, I hope "The Wall" isn't that active tonight!


EDIT: So, after lunch, it's the wall being built and then the puck bouncing off, right? ;)

No problem, Aeryn. That was fun.

For anyone looking for a simple one...

And another that is much lamer than I thought it would be when I came up with the idea...

Simple, but probably my second favorite after the wall building one...

I guess orange wasn't the best color for this. Oh well, I don't feel like redoing it with a darker color unless someone really likes this.
