Description
"You never know where inspiration will come from or where it will lead you!"
Don't you hate it when you get a 'great' idea, but you don't have anything handy to write it down with? And then, you lose it.
It was supposed to be a short little animation, but it kept demanding more and more frames. Until it became what it is now.
246 Frames
Made with Gimp and the GAP
Best viewed in FireFox 3 (but it should be fine with other browsers)
Many thanks to all the talented Pixel Artists on DA for inspiration and technical ideas. Especially to for explaining the different frame rate limits on various browsers.
EDIT: Changed some colors to make it easier to see.
EDIT v2: I removed some extra frames that I accidentally added in the previous edit.
EDIT v3: Wow! a DD!
Thank you `Synfull and ^PurpelBlur ! 
EDIT v4: I made an abbreviated version, for use as an avatar, or if you prefer just the dancing in circles part. [link]
