it actually took me three days. (that's a record, ladies and gents) but it's a composition of tons of things I learned this year. being tabletless is tough, but I learned how to do fairly simple fbf animation that looks smooth. another biggie I pickued up, motion tweens. by next year I hope to focus on some actionscript, like stop and replay, and learn to make a preloader.
And yes, I've only used this account twice. I want to become more active, though. I love animation and games and concept art, and ng is a great place to start building a rep. so hopefully you'll see more of me around here.
peace and love!
