@@@@@@9/6/07 QUACKTASTIC UPDATE@@@@@@
okay here is an update... i suggest you read the whole thing... only if you already HAD a duck sig. if you come here expecting me to make you a new one, THINK AGAIN. Now, if i already made you a duck sig, I still have all your .fla's on my computer... you can see all of the gifs right hurr... wow.. haven't seen them all displayed like that before :0 neat. anyways, if one of those is yours, leave me a comment, and let me know what the filename is (because a lot of people changed aliases) and i'll try to comment back with the url of your new sig :) this will be much more organized than PMs, because i can keep track of whose i haven't done... although, i should probably make a new post for this, NEVERRR. whatever! sorry to those of you who wished the ducks died with the redesign, but i know some people want their ducks back :P QUACK ATTACK!!

oh yeah... and obviously if your sig was animated... RIP >_<

--------------------------------------

[9/5 edit] man, i do a lot of updates :0 well, i just wanted to say, i'm making a conscious effort to review more flash! So, if you would like to have your flash reviewed by me (better be gooood, i don't like to write bad reviews :P) gimme a link, and i'll see what i can do! also, vote on that shit on the edit below so my boss is happy kthx.

[8/14 edit] Updated user pic, so it's not the exact same as my banner :0 feel free to comment ;)

Mister hippo, are you just a lazy fat sack of poop?

Well, maybe... however I haven't been completely worthless, I have been getting some work done, but it's not for Newgrounds :( I got hired at a place called *CENSORED* , a studio that does a lot of work for video games. We make trailers for the video, promotional website, email blasters, ads, and even full commercials with real actors. My job is doing the flash stuff at the studio, doing websites, ads, and the blasters layouts. However, not all the work I do is for video games, I've also done work for this band who shares the studio with us. The studio used to be audio based, doing voice overs for trailers and video games and whatnot, and have a recording studio on the other half. The studio was formed by my boss, and one of the members of a Christian rock band (that is apparently pretty big in the Christian music industry, not that you, or myself, would know that) called *GONNA CENSOR JUST CUX*.

[LARGE PARAGRAPH REMOVED, SORRY]

Not all work I've been doing has been work related, I've been trying to get some flash work done for Newgrounds as well. It's just hard to go home and make flash after sitting at work and doing it all day, haha. But you know I love you all, and need to get some new stuff done, so I'm hoping I can get off my fat ass and get some stuff done ^_^

Now, to show you the source of my pure awesomeness, and finish off this long, stupid, failure attempt at a first post. We got picture one, picture two, and even a scan of it!

Sorry, in case it wasn't clear I kinda like this hat :P Yes, it's summer in Texas, and I have this dumb thing on my head. I might be mentally insane, but it's all good!

So, it's time to get to work! Enjoying the new site design, guys. Haven't had enough time to explore around on it, but will get more in eventually. Catch ya guys later!

Whatcha been up to Mister Hippo?

Mister Hippo! You're alive!

Yes sir, I do believe I am still alive! :)

Now this is the kind of "artist news" I love to see!

It sounds like you're getting a lot of great experience at your job and forming relationships that could help you over the years. If they ever need a website for all those ads you're making, you can always recommend NG. :)

Yeah, I'm loving all the different experience I'm getting in all sorts of fields! I hope it really helps me out in the future, and I'm sure it will. I'm glad I set a good example of how to post artist news ^_^ Tangible Media is in control of where those ads go, they are put on IGN and Gamespot, and 1up, but I don't really go to those sites, so I never get to see my work. Seeing my ads on Newgrounds would be really cool, then I could see my stuff on several parts of the site :P Thanks for the reply Tom, really means a lot to me :3

Where is Jive Machine 2??? Im sure they'd like that at your work :)

Haha, funny thing is, the flash i showed them to get the job was Jive Machine :P I have big plans for Jive Machine 2, including some form of playback system, and the ability to send others your dances you've compiled. I'm going to have to find a sweet actionscripter to help me out though, but I think it will be fun :D i gotta finish my site too one day :/

It's funny, because we've talked about most of this stuff. It's a shame with the Wish You were Hippo poster and you not being in the commercials. You have been up to a real lot rercently.

PS: I love your hat still.
PSS: Got my first level 100. Torterra.

Torterra? Alakazam ftw ;) yeah, been quite busy, and you know all about it! thanks for listening to me bitch and whine at work from time to time ;) <3
