Hey I released NothingBetter, and it's hit the frontpage! Awesome, thanks so much to all the people who support me. And for anyone who has heard of my clothing business: RAWR! Clothing, I have released my 3 new series 2 t-shirts. A bunch of exciting news!

I'm also starting to storyboard my new animation. Different from all my other animations, I'm actually considering making a series called: "Octobilly and Puff". I'm really excited about this. These are just two characters that I have been playing around and doodling for a while now, so I really want to make them come to life. I have gotten a lot of encouragement from NothingBetter, so I'm planning on starting Octobilly very soon.

Thanks a lot everyone!

-RAWR!

Hello there. I really enjoyed NothingBetter. You're a very talented animator, and you're only a senior in High School. That's amazing. It's such a shame that it did not receive a daily award, though. No matter, though. Judging by your talent it will come eventually in your animating career.

I also enjoyed your first flash, Lose A Smile. The song was very lucid. I know I've heard it before, too. Don't know where, though. Do you plan on creating the full Lose A Smile flash, or did you pull the plug on it? I would personally love to see it completed!

The two songs you submitted to NG are also very good! Too bad the audio portal here doesn't receive much traffic. It is a great way to show off your musical creations. I noticed that the music was submitted a while ago, so I'm curious: Are you still creating music?

Also, I immediately fell in love with your T-Shirt designs! I hope to purchase all of your Series One designs before school starts, so you won't be busy. Also looking forward to your line of hoodies!

And to top it all of, you're also a great web designer! Both of your sites are designed beautifully! Your ability at graphic design plus the knowledge you have of CSS make your sites brim with life!

I have nothing but praise for you. You are skilled at flash, you have a great musician's ear, you're running your own T-Shirt business, plus you know how to code a website rather well! And all of this at such a young age! I read that you live somewhere close to Princeton...are you planning on attending? Granted, I don't know much about that particular school, but with your talent...well... ;)

You're probably my favorite person on the internet right now. I'm adding you to the top of my favorite authors list. I really look forward to seeing more of your work soon.

Your fan,
Michael (DepressedStone)

Wow, I'm speechless. That is one of the nicest comments I have ever received. I'm glad you liked both my movies. But sadly enough, I don't think Lose A Smile will ever be completed. I was working with a musician who never finished the soundtrack that he was making for me, which was really disappointing. And besides, I think I've evolved so much as an animator, that I would think it tough to return to a project started about 2 years ago.

I'm surprised you liked my two songs. They were really just experiments, I personally don't think I really have a good ear or anything, but I really appreciate it nonetheless. I haven't made any music for a long time, but it's always fun and wouldn't mind getting back into it.

I'm really glad you liked my t-shirt designs, I worked really hard on those. I'm glad you liked my websites too. Took me a lot of time to get them to how they are today. I'm so happy that someone actually acknowledges how much time and effort I put into my work!

I'm considering going to an east coast art school like RISD, Parsons, or MICA so I'm not really thinking of going to Princeton. And besides, I've never really been the brainy type, more of the creative thinker.

This is really flattering, thank you so much! You really made my day.

Awesome!!! That's all I have to say about your work! I am a huge fan of your style of animation. I just watched the poptarts commercial and was blown away by how funny and original it was!

But, I have to say that I was really taken with Nothing better. You did such a tremendous job on it.

You're on the cusp of greatness! I must now favoritize you for great justice!
