Super Mario Bros 1 UP Animation

So this is my first animation submission. It was actually fairly simple to make, because I didn't have to move Mario at all, and I just had to change the position of the 1UP mushroom every so often. I first found a picture of Mario standing still on some random world in the classic Super Mario Bros. game. Then, I found a picture of a 1UP mushroom and made it into a brush, so I could simply click on where I wanted it to be. It is not very action-y because I would need to have multiple images of Mario in various positions, so I could make him run, jump, and do other things. Once I find more images of him, I will make more action-filled scenes where he will jump on Goombas and maybe even use a flamethrower. Regardless, if you have any ideas for improvement or questions, please comment.

Soccer Ball of Doom

First off: To see my image you have to click on it directly. I'm not sure why it only works like that but it does, so yeah.

This idea came to me last Monday and so I started it. It's only about 18 layers without the 'The End' and blank layers, but I thought I'd post it anyways. I created a stick man at first, and copied his layer a few times. I found a soccer ball and sized it down and place it slowly going up then down towards the man. Occasionally I would rotate the image of the soccer ball. When the ball hits him, I changed the position of the stick man so he looked like he was falling backwards. Wondering what hit him, he looked around, but can't find the object. I added the question marks just cause. He then changes into a ninja (though Bri calls him a Nazi-Ninja....which he's not!) and gets mad skillz. And that's basically my GIF image. I hope it makes you laugh at least a little bit.

dish network

Apparently my first ad didn't post, so I made a new one. For this I used my MTV logo to replace the actual logo in a pre-made ad I found on google. I copy and pasted the list of logos into gimp, then erased the MTV logo. Then I pasted the logo I made into it and shrunk it to fit with the rest of them. I couldn't really decide what I wanted to do with it, so I added the "order now" and "dish network" on the sides, making it look like a tv provider ad. Lastly, I added the bottom saying, and turned it into a "first four months free" dish network ad.

SCIENCE!

I made this ad by making text with SCIENCE! and going to Filters->Alpha to Logo... and choosing one of those, i forgot which one I used. The picture of beaker was cut out and fliped, i then used alpaha to logo again and chose alien glow. The white text was done the same but with a white glow not green.

This is a recruitment poster for the chess team. It was made by first making a nice purple background for John Bapst. I originally centered my logo on the page, but now it's on the top layer and near the top of the page to make room for Kasparov. I put the picture of Kasparov there to make it seem like one of those old army recruitment posters with Uncle Sam. I just used a transparency layer mask to get rid of the background around Kasparov so he actually looks like part of the poster. I put the nifty captions at the top and bottom, the last one being a pun on the chessboard (in case people don't know, the horizontal rows are called ranks).

It took me awhile to figure out what I wanted to use my logo for and how to do, but finally I saw this picture on the internet, and got a picture of a garage door because the original had some graffiti on it and I wanted to type the text that is now on the left side of the picture. I made the recycling bin before adding it to this picture. I took the bin and added my logo to it then the word 'Recycle'. I put the bin where it is now and created the arrow pointing to it. I had the text in the bottom right of the picture , but it wasn't visible, so I added my logo once again and made the text size smaller.

So, if you don't want your lawn to look like this, come and get one of out totally awesome recycling bins today!
