Request for KoolMoves example animations

[Bob Hartzell]

We are in the process of redoing our web site because at some point in the future we will be selling a separate lite version. In the past, we created the web site ourselves. Although we started in that business in the late 90's before we created KoolMoves, we frankly lack sufficient talent to create a great web site and also we end up fighting a lot between ourselves (a little peak behind the scenes). Hence we have hired a professional, friend of several friends, who has a strong track record in creating creative web sites with clean, professional designs.

I am communicating with some of the beta team people in refining the design. Design by committee is difficult and is probably driving the designer crazy. Feedback from the group has been very helpful and I want to thank them for their insights.

It would be great if we could feature on the homepage and gallery page (which will now be a separate navigation page like it used to be) different types of KoolMoves created animation other than just standard web site type animation.

The incentive for you is that you get a lot of traffic to you site and credit for your work on our site. We couldn't pay you enough for your effort for that type of remuneration to make sense. I have some KoolMoves air-brushed T-shirts from a contest which never came off which I can give to the best contributions.

You can post here or email me a link to look at. I know everyone thinks their stuff is magnificient but please try to be realistic.

Being a pragmatist (and not feeling so creative lately :() I was thinking of building a "fancy" nav bar with gradients and whatnot - to show what KoolMoves can do easily and well, but it sounds like you are looking for character animation or something a little less mundane.

Should they be standalone movies are could they be part of a site?

[Bob Hartzell]

I am looking for show piece animations that illustrate different types of animaton that KoolMoves can create -- like character animation, action script apps, etc.

JUst in case you didn't get this Bob. I've sent it twice and had it sent back twice (probably my Telefonica connection playing silly sods again). Anyway.. dump this post if you have received it.
Still needs a lot of cleaning up but it's a basic idea.
Cheers

Would this include games?

[docree]

Hey Bob,
I may have something of interest.
[It's a few blooming roses... Using a few tweens. Four key frames at most.]
I'll include it in my site update within the next two weeks.

[Bob Hartzell]

Games would be great.

Gusmus, I did get the banner twice.

[Makulaf]

Gusmus, I did get the banner twice.

You can have any game that I posted if you think one is good enough.

[jbongo]

Its rather simple, but here is mine. i kinda did it just to say i did something. :)

[Bob Hartzell]

It would be easier for me and probably others, if you posted an url to the html/swf animation. Downloading, figuring out where to put it, unzipping excetera takes a lot of effort.

DAMN! Im currently designing a website with loads of animation but wont be ready for ages. How long do we have?

Hey Bob, is there a specific size for the gallery or will this be a link in the gallery that just opens another window?

[Bob Hartzell]
