Hey, let me drunkenly animate your photos in about 25 to 60 days!

whoops, I meant to have more lag time in there for incredible realism, enhanced version:

bun dem stave churches

technique is great

hey ZS!!!

Can u pls make this guy do something cool and then shrink it to avatar size pls?

http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kv6gtt2Lk91qavaaoo1_500.jpg

I will when I get home from work! 2 questions:

What's yr preferred avatar size, like 250x250? 150x150?

...are those...cowbell boobs?

...and if so... do you want me to make them jiggle?

*officially hits rock bottom*

looooooool

Man, if the animated gif with sound technology the final frontier) was available, the jiggling cowbell boobs could play a brief melody, like the theme from family ties, or greensleeves

I mean, there's stuff like http://ytmnd.com or something, but that's not exactly sound embedded in the gif

To save space, it would be cool to embed midi in it. That would also be consistent with the sorta retro-y/widely compatible thing that the animated gif has going for it anyway. I think we could be on the cusp of something huge here.

We're gonna be rich!

OH MY GOD at this Z S, this is my new favorite thing of all time.

lol Zach. I think they are, in fact, cowbell boobs and would be overjoyed if you could make them jiggle. What's normal avatar size? I just wanna have it on reserve for when justice is served and we're finally allowed avatars. gif in that size would be amazing too just to have. :D

lol krampus it's that time of year again!

xmas markets start this weekend. stoked for the madness.

pleasepleaseplease take pictures if you see actual Krampuses (?!) and post them to the Krampus thread.

hey I know that cat.
bunnies are freaking me out!

yeah, it's zaireeka! I emailed it to liz + lance, who told me they're probably moving to California soon, gonna try to manage Permanent Records from there for a while? probably old news to you, but new to me!

also, bunnies should freak you out.

lol I had actually heard that.

wow, I'm in there every other week and didn't realize that was Zaireeka

hi Z S!

ive been banned since you got in the tumblr game, but have been watching from the sidelines.

you seem really concerned with how many people are reblogging you!!! and i mean, you go to the hard work of making creative, original shit so yeah you'd like to know its getting out there, but you should just enjoy making them IMO. there is no explanation for what will catch on and what won't. except for nudity. people like/reblog nudity pretty reliably.

How many followers do you have? cause that's way more key to getting more re-blogs and likes and shit than trying to re-create the creepy-cat magic.

here's how i got the ball rolling on three frames tho (now at 14,500 followers):

after like a month of posting, i started using tumblr's search function. when i had a week of posts from Harold and Maude, I searched for stuff that was tagged with "Harold and Maude" "Bud Cort" etc. I found people who had recently posted H+M stuff and started following them. Then i found H+M posts with dozens or even hundreds of likes and reblogs on them and followed every single person who liked/reblogged harold and maude stuff. then i liked (couldn't reblog due to my tumblr's strict format) all their recent posts as they showed up in my feed.

is this a waste of time? yes and no. a lot of those people never noticed "3frames likes this" or "3frames started following you" once-- i can tell you that i stopped paying attention to new followers after i got to like 500. if some dude "likes" a dozen posts in a row, however, he'll get my attention. but eventually it got the ball rolling.

and yes, i was stuck with a few hundred morons clogging up my feed with tired memes, but after a few months i was able to start whittling it down.

if these guys haven't started following/reblogging you yet:

http://gifanime.tumblr.com/
http://lovegifs.tumblr.com/

i would go and "like" their last 20 posts or so to get their attention.

All That Jazz week has rocked.

what is your tumblr, gr80?
