Anybody here want to rate my future build?

AMD FX-6300 Six-Core 

Sapphire Radeon r9 280x 3gb

ASRock Micro ATX motherboard

Crucial Ballistic Sport 4gb single DDR3 RAM

Corsair builder series CX 500w power supply

Rosewill Micro-ATX Mini Tower computer case

Seagate Barracuda 1tb HDD

All of the parts are being purchased off Amazon and will total up to about $598.12, plus an extra $100 for a copy of Windows 7.

AMD Dual-Core Opteron 185

Nvidia gtx 285 (I think) 712mb vram

3gb RAM

Windows XP SP3 32-bit

It's mainly parts from 06' and 08', but it's still capable of running some new-ish games on low-mid settings at good frame rates. 

I'm surprised at nobody listing Ruby Gloom. If you like MLP, you need to check it out. It was basically FiM before FiM was a thing, and it even had a following on /b/ at one point. 

Also, I finally decided to check out My Life as a Teenage Robot, so I can add that one to my list. The art style (especially the backgrounds) is like candy to my eyes. I'm only four episodes in but from what I can tell the high-school aspect can be kinda lame and it's at it's best when it focuses on Jenny being a badass.

Also, is Danny Phantom worth checking out? I vaguely remember it from my childhood and I remember enjoying it. I've heard that it was pretty good for the first two seasons but kinda fell apart at the third when Butch Hartman took more control over the writing. 

Well.............i for one don't like too many cartoons after the 90's, but

- MLP:FIM

- Danny Phantom

- Teen Titans

- Transformers: Prime

 

.......everything else was utter trash,

So Avatar: The Last Airbender, Invader Zim, and Gravity Falls are all utter trash?

Okay then

I believe episodes 6-11 were what I worked on.  I did Effects Builds; which means getting key drawings of a specific effect (a waterfall, an explosion, a dust cloud, etc.) from the design team and breaking down the design into multiple pieces and then animating them.  One specific example I can remember, in the episode Rixty Minutes with the interdimensonal TV, there's a tornado during the "Two Brothers" show.  I animated that tornado.

I'm uncredited because I was brought in late to help with the crunch time workload (while my job was primarily effects, I did sporadically do a few other things).

Very cool! Actually, do you mind if I send you a PM? I have an interest in animation and I'd love to be able to chat with someone who has experience with it. 

Of course it is, you run around and shoot things in first person 

Well, even if you're trying to simplify it down to it's core gameplay that's not gonna work. If you just ran around and shot things in Metroid Prime you wouldn't make any progress in it. You could probably go through most of the game (besides boss fights and certain encounters) without firing a shot besides for opening doors.

Hm...

The Batman

MLP: FiM

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2012 (I know the 2003 series gets a lot of love, which I think it totally deserves, but it never hooked me.)

The Spectacular Spider-Man

Rick and Morty (I got to work on this one I'm uncredited though )

Avatar The Last Airbender/The Legend of Korra

Gravity Falls

Invader ZIM

Megas XLR

The Looney Tunes Show

Dude, you got to work on Rick and Morty? It sucks that you're not credited, but that's still pretty awesome regardless. Which episode(s) did you work on and what part of it?

I've never actually seen anything from the 90's, unless of course SpongeBob counts.

You might want to take another look at the topic title.

I hate to be "That Guy", but Metroid Prime isn't a shooter. 

Due to my recent frustration with nostalgiatards and 90s kids, I'm curious as to how many of you are fans of modern TV/Web animation. Here are some of my favorites:

Invader Zim

Adventure Time

Wander Over Yander

Gravity Falls

Avatar: The Last Airbender

Rick and Morty

Superjail

Aqua Teen hunger Force

Axe Cop

Steven Universe

Bee and Puppycat

Ruby Gloom

MLP:FiM (duh)

Halo:CE has aged incredibly well, a lot better than others like Half-Life 1 and Goldeneye. Not saying those two games are bad of course, just that they haven't aged very well at all, especially HL (Good god, the platforming). I would also say Doom, but after playing Brutal Doom I don't think I'll ever be able to pick up the original again. 

I'd also say that perfect Dark has aged fairly well, in comparison to Goldeneye at least. Little things like easier access to equipment/gadgets, better guidance towards objectives, voice acting, and actual reload sequences make it feel a lot less archaic.

I see you said everything today is crap. *sees you are on a site for a show currently airing*

I see you did not detect that everything I said was sarcasm.

I thought the hashtag would give it away. 

I had my first day of school today (I'm a senior in high school) and I honestly haven't felt this fucking horrible since, well, when I was back at school last year. I hate being surrounded by people who are all better, happier, and more successful than me while I'm expected to just be happy with what I have (which is basically nothing). I don't care if I'm being narcissistic, fuck their happiness, fuck their relationships, and fuck their success.   

Obviously the only true way to improve these networks is to cancel everything currently airing and just air all the cartoons from the 90's.

After all, there were only good cartoons during the 90's and everything today is crap. 

Also, stop using flash animation, because it totally doesn't take any skill to use and cannot be a legitimate art form because it's done on a computer.

Get rid of all the "random" humor, because shows from the 90's like Catdog and Ren and Stimpy relied completely on logical, sensible jokes.

Yes, digital is the future, and honestly I don't really see how it's a bad thing. Now, I don't mean frame-by-frame animation is dying out, I mean that traditional animation done only on paper is just impractical unless you have a huge budget, especially with all of the tools available to animators now. Frame by frame animation is something that's still going strong, just done without paper and with software instead. 

First of all, I highly doubt CN would have picked it up. I'm pretty sure they rejected a few shows simply because they starred female main characters. However, some of the comments I'm seeing here are just, well, baffling. 

They would have dumbed it down? Yeah, because the same network that lets Adventure Time get away with vulgar innuendos, implied trans-species sex, implied rape, existential themes, mild gore, and a post-apocalyptic setting would totally censor the crap out of the show about talking ponies. Even though CN wouldn't pick it up, in an alternate reality I think MLP would fit pretty nicely with the rest of CN's lineup. 

A new Disney cartoon? Probably is gonna be horrible.

Interesting conclusion, considering Gravity Falls and Wander over Yonder have both been very well-received.

Whoo, a prog rock thread! Just the thing I was hoping to see after I let mine die.

Hm, this thread is severely lacking some Marillion and The Mars Volta

Any thoughts on this? Personally, I think it looks awesome. The art style reminds me of Scott Pilgrim and good cartoons with female lead characters are just so rare and it's refreshing to see. Also, it's worth noting that this is the first Disney cartoon in a long while that was actually created by a woman. 

In my fantasy: Pull her in for another, kissing her passionately and holding her close to me.

In reality: Wake up, feel happy for a moment, realize it wasn't real, and probably cry.

I have Flash myself. I hope to become a professional animator someday but for now I just use it to create random scribbles and doodles of animation that I almost never save. Studying studio arts in school.

I'm actually planning on getting photoshop soon, it's supposed to be better-suited for traditional animation than flash. Cool, I might go to an art school at some point but I'm mostly planning on just teaching myself.

I'm studying animation. Right now, I use the basics like a drawing tablet, but I'll be getting Flash soon.

Sweet. What kind of tablet do you use and are you studying at an art school or something like that or on your own? 

I know I've seen one around here before, but I'm curious as to how many people here do animation or even have a job in it. If you are an animator, what kind of animation do you do and what software or hardware do you use? Do you work on your own, in a group, or as a part of a studio? Any tips or advice for beginners? 

Well, look here.

I didn't believe it until it actually started happening to me.

I don't think most of those are true, especially since most people do look at porn. 

Even if it is, the relationships (I'm the only one with standards low enough to fuck me) and society (I don't look at regular porn) parts don't apply to me. 

Personally, I wouldn't consider yiff to be a form of r34 as it isn't really based off something, although I do admit that the line be sort of blurred in some cases. That being said, I do love me some furry and scaly porn but don't really consider myself a furry.
