ok… im a noob to kirupa so i dont know if i make the rules, or the mods do, and how i submit… if i were to make the rules they would be:

No copying  
Use flash art only (can be converted into gif)  
no voting for your own cartoon character  
and dont animate it  
NO PHOTOSHOP OR ANY OTHER PROG THEN FLASH  
and well… have fun lol

but i dont know if i make the rules or not, and can someone explain how i submit my junk to it?

I’d go for it if you wanna do it.  
But kitiara would kick everyones asses cuz shes an amazing flash artist.  
But it would be worth a shot.

Yeah, a mod has to set it up and stuff with all the details and such.

Flash art? Meaning I have to draw the character _in_ Flash?

Well I’d enter this, but I certainly wouldn’t say that I’d be kicking anyone’s arse. 🙂

If people wish, I will set up the thread in a minute with the rules. Just to outline them now, I’ll say that yes, it is a Flash only exercise and not drawn in Photoshop. So no fancy filters etc. You are allowed to export to Photoshop and save as a gif / jpg though. That’s permissible.

You can draw it on paper first, then scan in and trace and fill, but the thing has to be done in Flash. No gradient fills, you’ll have to shade by hand. 🙂

If anyone isn’t sure what I mean, then you can look at the line art tutorial on the main Kirupa site. 🙂

I’m all for this one… but can there be a kind of long due date? Like maybe a couple weeks or so? I’m really busy for the next few days so I was just wondering.

Thanks

I’ve made it for two weeks from today for the time being. If people would like longer then I’ll alter the thread. :cyborg:

The bezier tool in Flash and I do not get along, too many years with Illustrator cause me frustration 😃

Who needs the Bezier tool?

I rarely use it. If I’m doing vector art then I just use the normal line tool to make curves and shapes, and then fill… 🙂

Why not use Illustrator if it’s your preference? It’s essentially the same thing: software to make vector art…

i’d like to join in if its not too late

so you just have to make a character with no motion, no animation, nothing to it in flash…then convert it to a gif?

Just make a cartoon character in flash… That’s it.

Cause, that’s not the rules :cyclops: Rules are to make it in Flash, not in another vector program. :-\
