This is a pivot competition for AG users.

First you need a studio name like
Stick Studio
(Insert Name Here) Productions
Etc.

You will need this if you have credits or if you want to make your mark. My one is Stickguy Studios.

How To Submit A Video Animation.

1. Download Pivot At softonic.com (PCs only)

2. Install Pivot. (Not required by all computers)

3. Open Pivot.

3.5. Read the manual. (Optional)

4. Go to file click "Create Figure Type" to make an object.

5. To use this, go in the the creation screen, go to file, then insert in animation. Don't forget to save it!

6. Once you have the figures, slightly move them the wa you want them to be animated, after moving hit next frames, click this multiple times to slightly slow the animation.

7. Continue step 6 until your animation is complete.

8. Click the play button in the corner to preview your animation.

9. Make any changes you may need.

10. Save somewhere as a gif.

11. Upload it to imageshack, photobucket etc.

12. Click on the animation (on the image website) until it is a blank window excluding the animation.

13. Copy the URL of that window.

14. Post it on this thread!

I used to do a lot of pivoting a while back, good times.

Anyways, I might not join this competition since I'm sort of lazy, but back when I did Pivot, I also wrote a little guide here in the AG forums. Figured I could post a link to it, it might help.

Here it is. Don't post in it, though, it's old and doesn't need to be brought back up.

Good luck to all who enter.

Matt, you need to use the Image button, not the Link button.

I think it's pretty cool though, especially when there are multiple balls and/or stick figures.
