With inspiration from pidjy, I came up with this little animation. I tried to replicate a video clip I saw on TV once. Apparently, "aliens" came down...looking like glowing green balls. They hovered in patterns over the ground and a crop circle "magically" formed in the field. Here's my attempt at replicating that...I think it turned out pretty well. Warning - it's a .mov file that's almost 13MB

Got closer with this one...

The doctor says I have way too much blood in my caffeine system.

Got it but Quicktime doesn't understand it.

Sorry about that! I tested it before I posted and I had to adjust the URL in my browser but I forgot to change it in my post! Sorry.

Hi Andy, I've got quicktime 6.3 but it won't open it. Do I need to use the old media player, or get some new codex like divX?

Yeah Andy, my QT won't open the file either.:-(

Haha...I just tested it out and my quicktime won't open it either! I don't quite know what's wrong because the file on my computer works just fine. Any idea why? I'll try re-render it in AVI.

Did you FTP it as ascii or binary? Try binary. Ascii can insert page breaks.
