Dawn of the Giants

is the name of my upcoming animation. It should be done within 5 days (yes, animating takes a lot of time).

Here's a couple of screenshots that I took.

The main character

The title and play button

Notice the nice glowy effects on "The title and play button"? Well, those are called filters.

No, not the kind of air filter that Darth Vader uses, or a parental control website filter, that's not what I mean.

Look:

Filters are special effects that you can use. All the pro animators on Newgrounds use them.
Newgrounds is a massive site where loads of Flash users go to upload their flashes. It's the original, and the biggest.
I'm going to host my animation on there, so when I make it I'll just link to it, OK?
When you host flashes on NG, you run the risk of it getting BLAMMED. Basically that just means that your flash gets deleted on NG. Ouch. I doubt mine will get blammed, seen as I'm putting a lot of effort into it.

I'm hungry, so I'll explain the plot of Dawn of the Giants later (maybe). MMMmmm, chicken fajitas again today for me! Mum makes the perfect fajita - she's probably got a photo of one on her blog. *drools*

Tappi

Is the name of our new kitten.
Me and dad first secretly planned to get Mum a kitten 2 days before her birthday. After looking in corner shop windows for a "free kitten to good home" notice (and having no luck), Dad rang up the place where we had got two of the cats that we own. So, after waiting 6 days for the kitten that we chose to have her immunisations and get chipped, we have finally brought her home.
On the journey back from the Woodland Animal Sanctuary she ripped my thumb from inside the cage with her sharp little claws. She didn't mean to hurt me, she was just desperate to get out.
She is a beautiful tabby, I just love her huge ears, and she has a rather pathetic meow - it's more of a sqeaky hiss.






She's crying at me all the time. I think she's found her new master. Mum has Buffy, so we secretly decided that Tappi could be sort of mine. Awww. A second ago she tried to scrabble up onto the chair I'm sitting on too.

So anyway, we've made a bed out of a Walkers crisp box, and because I love her so much I've donated a sheepskin rug for her, and she can have my teddies Hester and Fudge to keep her toasty warm in the night. OK, I'm going to bed now. See you tomorrow, Tappi.

Boots

Gotta be quick, but, in short, Mum is taking boots to the vet. I'm going with her. Things look bad.
