-zylum, took it off the thread since it could cause a page to run slow displaying multiple mouse trailer swfs 😉

Thanks Ilyas 🙂
It started out with just dots following the mouse and fading out (kind of just like any other mouse trailer)
Then it evolved into this…

Then into this…

And finally into the one I posted in my last post.
Yes, I was truly bored 😛

You come up with this sort of thing when you’re bored? Lost, I offically hate you for that. 😛 😛 It’s fantastic. 🙂

Thanks Kit 🙂
and LOL, yes I do… occasionally. Sometimes my bordom experiments are seriously bad. I just try stuff, I usually have no specific goal in mind, I just start off with something simple that does something that I can work with and evolve, then I add/remove/change things to see what different things I can create spawning from the original code 🙂

It shouldn’t be allowed you know. 🙂
In the immortal words of Waynes World, I’m not worthy. 🙂

that’s exactly how i work, i start on a general concept, say a pretty design, then i go “hey what if i mousetrail this…?” (which is what i always do eventually) then voilà, i have a mouse trailer. I rarely ever sit down and tell myself, “ok time to make a mouse trailer”.
[size=1]which reminds me i have to post my mouse trailer soon…
Ilyas \>\> :bad:[/size]
Kit, i’m sure you work the same way. do you ever know what your final project will eventually be?

Kit: You ARE worthy :love:
Thor: Now that I think of it, you do tend to do a lot of mouse trailers, but you do it so well! Glad to see we work in similar ways :beam:
Voetsjoeba: thanks :beam:
And BTW: Ilyas your mouse trailer is friggin incredible!!! Clownstaples was a nice concept too, it was nicely pulled off 🙂 Zylums lagged my computer quite a bit, but those stars looked quite wicked when they trail had a spiral look.
