Picture the caption game

Aw man, this is gonna be hard to judge...

Strange Wings, I like your pictures too! I like that they are so different than everything I could have thought of for this caption!

I probably noticed the cheapness while capturing frames that I wanted you to make into animated gifs. When characters are walking, they move faster than they walk. I mean, their legs move, but every nth frame, they simply slide along, without any change in the foreground except its position. I found a really cute clip of Atom walking along whistling a tune & the notes were flowing out of his mouth, but he simply slid along on too many frames. It would have made a really cute gif, if only it were fluid.

I've seen that in the 1980 "Time Machine" episode. Uran pretty much slides more than she runs as she follows Penny to see the treasure. It looks like a way to repair a particular mistake, because I can't remember any other occurence.

What I find funny in the 1963 series is how both the background and characters can loop in a particular sequence, but not at the same rate. That is not good for perfect animated gifs!

Aw man, this is gonna be hard to judge...

Sorry if it may be hard to come up with stuff for this one.

Looks like it wasn't that hard, after all! When the choice is hard, it usually means it's a good round!

Looking good, folks! I should pick the winner Monday afternoon or so.

:d oh: I really hope the offset press I'm currently working with won't ever do stuff like that!
I wouldn't think about our customers being appreciated getting stocked up by Hyoutan-Tsugis printed on sheets. They indeed wouldn't do nice things to us in return.

I am glad you liked that. Here is another:

And the results are in...


"This is why we can't have nice things!"
Astro Forever wins, with Strange Wings and Jeffbert rounding the corner.

Good work, everyone!
