This is another image in the silhouette series where the “app up” of the image makes it even better (see “App Up Your Tina” for the full story). This time, I used Photoshop to “app up” the image into a GIF form.
I hope you like it. It shows me using some of my special powers to get them to listen to a special message. Like when I made that savvy guy stop using the mean word for months and months. It was The Rumble which was the final emphasis, but what was unseen at the time was all the amount of special time I spent helping him to understand while he was sleeping. (Of course, he didn’t see me when he was sleeping, and I used my ninja powers, too.) Some times, a lot of effort on your part pays off in the end of it.
And, as another bonus for you, here is a Cubomaniac version of my Cubomaniac Eyes picture from a couple days ago that I put into my True Friend John’s (@johnjohnston) Cubomaniacal GIF web app that he made today.
Plus, you can see here how my True Friend Bill (@byzantiumbooks) put my picture back together again, just like a good egg should.
So that was fun stuff for a fun day!
Well, bye!
Hey Tina,
Fun indeed. I really love the top gif, where you look pretty and powerful. Love the expanding circles of ninja power very sooth animation. Bill shows your power too, putting yourself back together after the cubachrome wringer!
Well, it is nice to have such nice friends, who are also True Friends, to do things for friends. Like if someone was a True Friend and then they, say, fell off a wall (or down some stairs) say, then it would be good to have True Friends to put them back together again.
I think that maybe Humpty Dumpty just didn’t have enough True Friends, that was his problem. Plus, if I was an egg (Tina says was, instead of were, that’s part of her character) then I wouldn’t sit on a wall in the first place because eggs don’t have very good ninja skillz to help them if they fall and so it probably served him right. But True Friends would have helped. Maybe they would have said, “Hey, listen, maybe you should get down from that wall before something happens that even we can’t help you with.” Maybe he just didn’t listen. But anyway, it was nice for Bill to put my picture back together.
Crafty little doll, with the digital magic,
Reward us with visuals stunning and graphic.
Each tiny pixel, placed just right,
Every pica and inch used to full might,
Perfectly animated to give us a fright.
Yes, it hits home with the #ds106 demographic.
Well. I think that all that hard work all those months ago has finally paid off. That is, I think, the nicest thing you have ever said about me, True Friend.
It’s about time.
Oh, of course I appreciate you, Tina! Especially if you read between the lines 🙂
P.S. Feel free to delete the comment below this one posted at 11:25 pm on January 9th. It was not me, and I suspect someone is trying to trick you into thinking that I’m now one of your TRUE friends. I’m still solidly in the OPEN friends category.
No, I checked and you are in the True Friends category and you have a badge of it. It is the one of the famous Sweet Potato Yam one that is an animated GIF of it and you together. You can see it here: iamTalkyTinaSaysSoYamBen.gif I am glad we were able to clear up your confusion by checking our records. Plus, Remember The Rumble.
That’s not Ben. It’s a doppleganger forgery. Easy Peasy
But why don’t you have a picture of your avatar beside YOUR email? Because my True Friend does.
I love dolls. I really do. I want them all around my house. Looking in my window. Hovering behind me at the top of the stairs.
It is because you saw the light of it and now understand that a True Friend like me cares if other people see you saying the Mean Word and helps you stop so that your digital identity is clean.
