Question and answer:
Q: Why have you made this site?
A: I have always liked to draw and always wanted to animate.
Then i found out about gif animating so i started doing those
but i wanted to put it on the internet so people could see
my work. Then a friend of mine told me about geocities
and I made a site wih their online pagebuilder. Later i learned
using dreamveawer got a domain and cartooncrackpot.com was
born.
Q: Who is CartoonCrackpot?
A: CartoonCrackpot is the alter ego for a chronicly single
17 year old loserboy from europe. CartoonCrackpot allows him
to meet people and act really cool even though he's not...at
all.
Q: What do you use for animating?
A: For gifs I use Gifbuilder and Adope Photoshop
6 for the drawings. For flash animation I use Flash
5, it is a bit harder to learn but when mastered offers
you great possibilities.
Q: How do i get a site excatly like yours?
A: First sign up at geocities,
toil for hours on end to create a site with Geocities Pagebuilder,
have a few people tell you how crappy it looks, download Macromedia
Dreamveawer 4 and crack it illegally, toil for even more
hours on end and end up with a mediocre design like this.
Q: I really really like this site. How do I become more involved
in it?
A: First of all, join my newsletter (you can sign up for it
on the front page). I send out an issue every time I update.
Then you should sign my guestbook and tell me how cool you
think I am. After that go to my forum
and start a discussion there (nobody uses it, why not be the
first?). Then vote for me on the topsites.
You are always welcome to e-mail
me if you have further comments. If you're lucky you may find
me on yahoo! IM. My id is cartooncrackpot. Finally you should
send me money and/or nudyphotos if you are a really hot babe.
Q: I really really hate your site. How do annoy you the best
with my stupid loser opinions?
A: Well you could spew out your hate in my guestbook or
e-mail me your feelings. If you do so I will put your
message on my list of hatemail. I am to good a person to expose
your e-mail (unless you REALLY piss me off). Here are a few
things you and do to really step on me:
1: Correct spelling errors.
2: Bitch about how violence is bad. (it's not my fault that
you are a complete pussy.)
3: Be absolutely inconstuctive in your critique. (ex: Your
animations suck you phycho! Like get a life loser. Stop copying
other people's work! STICKDEATH.COM RULZ!(not))
4. Use lol, rulz, u, r, ur and brag about being a hA><0R!
5: Tell me the TRUTH about me!!! AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
Q: Why are you so cool?
A: Well...being really arrogant usually helps.
Q: What happened to Nerdwatch 2000, sounds and the form?
A: I was never really satisfied with Nerdwatch so i chose
to discontinue that part of my site. If I get enough requests
for it's revival or I just get really bored then it might
reappear as a part of my site or an independent place.
I found the sounds pretty malplaced so i removed them. If
you really want it I can bring them back as a special feature.
The form will probably come again some day.
Q: How do I learn how to animate?
A: Animation is very much about skill and having a feeling
of how things move. I suggest that you read every possible
book you can find on the subject and watch lots of loony toons
and Tom and Jerry to get the best result. If you choose to
animate in Flash you should go to Flashkit
and check out their toturials (they are both for beginners
and advanced learners). If you want to go with gif e-mail
me if you have any questions.
Q: How do I get people to see my stuff?
A: If you make Gif go to SFDT
if you make stickdeath. For flash go also to SFDT and Newgrounds
for great exposure. The best thing though would be to have
your own site which you can easyly construct for free at geocities.
When you have your own site add it to this
toplist.
Q: What is your real name?
A: I. P. Freely...
Q: Why stickdeath?
A: For more than a year ago i read a small article in a newspaper
about stickdeath and i got fascinated with it. I then found
a descent gifanimator and just started animating. Stickdeath
is relatively easy to do. Everybody can do it but few can
do it good. I now feel that stickdeath has a lot of limitations
so i am trying to make a transition to real people animation.
I still love stickdeath and it is very possible that i will
shoot out a stick death movie once in a while.
Q: I desperately want to make love to you!
A: Uhmm...why?
