I don't think you can make major changes to your shape after it is made. But sometimes you can as long as it won't change the shape in a fundamental way -- something like adjusting a curve. If you do need to change the shape more dramatically, you can change the points to the vector/point structure ...

Thanks for giving such an in depth explanation. I think I'm understanding it much better now. And I hope to try this one of these days.

If you applied any flipping, rotation, or translation to your group layer, when you remove a vector layer, that layer will no longer be flipped etc. And so it could end up somewhere completely different in your workspace. Could that be what's happening?

I'm sure my questions are overly basic because I haven't tried interpolating switches yet. ;D But essentially you have 8 separate bone rigs and they're all moving together? And then you have switch layers within those rigs for the chest, head, hands, and feet? If you're using interpolated switches, ...

That's so cool! Especially the hands. You'll be able to make some really cool action scenes with that rig. ...And maybe a tutorial?

I really like your pig character. :) I've never tried to do a walk without knee joints. It's a very interesting idea. I think I've seen this done with two approaches; a squishy walk bobbing from foot to foot and using lots of stretch and squash or a walk with stylized stiffness. It looks like you're...

Wow, that's kind of hypnotic. I think I'll be humming that tune for the next week.

oh, mikdog! ;P

FC Snow: I'm sorry to hear that you lost your friend. It helps to face that kind of grief with others who understand what you're going through. So if you have a mutual friend, you may be able to help each other through this. I'm sure that when you do get to the right place emotionally and finish you...

Cool animation. And I like how you did all your own music and sound effects.

I think super8 is saying that he did not animate "pivot." He saw "pivot" and wanted to show it to us.

Oh! Also, try bone dynamics in the range of 2, 4, 2.

Hmm, this was interesting to me so I set up my own harp strings. At first I had the parent bones far away from the dynamic bones and this caused the strings to fly all over because the dynamic bone is rotating around the same center point as its parent bone. You can see if this is happening to you b...

You really have a way with facial expression. The character emotions read so clearly. And as they change from expression to expression, it's always funny. You had me cracking up by the 12 second mark. Happy land rules.

Nice collaboration. The writing and animation work really well together. And I like the sense of incongruity in the humor. Best part was when he says that in retrospect he's not sure that it matters. lol
