Added a few extra eye & mouth expressions
Emote can now be rotated

Well thank you for making a great, interactive, spinning, color changing deviation!

is this just frames?
or like coding (i suspect more coding in the colours

Hi spikey
There is only one frame in the flash file. The majority of features are implemented using coding.
The various facial features are selected by switching MovieClips stored in the library using ActionsScript.
If there is anything in particular you would like me try to explain how to do let me know.

May I ask? May I request a tutorial on how to make these mini games and interactive thingies?
I still haven't picked up FLASH yet. dang thing.
And if you cannot make a tutorial for me, can you show me how to save FLASH files as *zip and all the others?

Hi yUsA,
Iβm not sure if I could write a tutorial that would do what you require justice but maybe I could point you in the right direction.
Before I suggest any resources may I ask you a few questions?
Is there anything in particular you would like to make using Flash?
How much experience do you have with Flash?
Have you ever done any work with ActionScript before?
If you want to try your hand at Flash (which I HIGHLY recommend) then there are a number of really good websites and books that could help you.

Q1: A Music Video, FLASH Games, FLASH Interactives, everything flash can do! D:
Q2: All I know is importing and exporting and inserting scenes. I think if you look at my flash animations (my recent one) then maybe that'll help you a little. D:
Q3: Absolutely not. D: I don't think I have it... ;~;

I'm sure everyone and his dog has mentioned it (*doesn't have time at the moment to read the comments*) but where's the ohnoes mouth?
Neato work, though. I love the way you can rotate it 8D

The one labled Rotate..."rotates" the Emote but it needs a bit of tweaking tbh.
The one labeld Colour alters the colour of the emote but that needs a bit of polishing up too
π: 0 β©: 1
Very cool! The only thign it kinda needs is a save function...
π: 0 β©: 1
Thanks Wintheeer....if I make another version I'll see what I can do about including a save function. Thanks for the suggestion

That's really cool!! If I'd known about this when I'd first started making emotes it would deffinately have helped me start off. It's great!

Thanks Ghost in the Snow. I wasn't sure how much use this thing would have as it was just something I was messing around with.

This is pretty awesome :D I wanted to do something like this but then I realized I suck at flash D: You can live the dream for me though
Really, great job

lol thanks Darkmoon, glad you like it.
This was just something I was messing about with although I might try to make another version when I get a chance.
I was thinking of making it possible to make different style emotes and was going to ask various emoticonists such as yourself if they wanted me to include theyβre particular style of emote.
As you were planning your own version and as you are the top emoticonist around here, have you got any ideas/suggestions for a possible future version of this?
π: 0 β©: 1
Sure, I'd love to have my style on there
Hmm, for suggestions? You could have different poses with the hands, like different hand positions. Also, little props like hats, beards, bows, and stuff it could hold in its hands (not sure if that'd be part of the props or pose section) like swords and guns and books :3 all that good stuff. I'm not sure if you can do this, but minor animation, (like bouncing, nodding, shaking head, waving, etc) would be an awesome effect too. Lmao, that's a lot of stuff, it'd probably take forever to do it all D:

Thanks for your suggestions Darkmoon. I'll be sure to include your style of emote in the next version. lol yeah that might take a while but most of what you suggested should be doable although the props might cause an issue. I'd either have to change the way the emote is rotated or create multiple views for each prop. Maybe I should see if anyone wants to contribute their own pixel props as my pixel art isnβt exactly the best in the world. One thing might test out with a new version is if I should use a drag-and-drop interface (like most dress-up-games) or use menus similar to what I have at the moment. Maybe a mixture of the two would be best.

THanks Skull
I'm not sure if the application has much use, I just wanted to try incorporate emotes into some flash work.
π: 0 β©: 1
Works well, You provide the basic structure and they can animate as they wish

i guess u alredy noticed, but mouth 5 and 6 are the same, and eyes 6 and 7 are the same, maybe a bug.
just in case u didnt noticed. would be funny if u could use that in forums ^^
π: 0 β©: 1
Fixed. Thank ExosSho, I hadn't actually noticed that. I only included the numeric steppers at the last minute due to a strange bug with the method I was using before hand and I guess I didn't test them properly.
