This was going to be my entry to the Manip Contest, but instead i decided to add Animation to it. Um. I really dont think that that would still qualify under manipulation but oh well, it doens't bother me too much.

The Link

I had to put it on my webspace it was so huge ohmy.gif

OH!! I forgot to put the credit for the text, which I WILL do later, but the text is from the book 'Stargirl' by Jerry Spinelli. I <3 that book. I gotta make a credit though.

Animation manipulates the original picture. ^_^
And... I like it, but I don't like that font. =/ Hard for me to read.

Its too fast I cant read it!! BUT, the picture looks nice, so kudos for that. Next time tho, slow it down, or pick an easier to read font.

I love the animation, the transitions. It's kind of hard to read, but I think it would look 100% better if you changed the font to something other than what you have right now.

It's really pretty and I love the butterfly + the book [it made me cry :(] but why is the tweening of the words so rocky?

I think everything looks nice except for the animated text. I think you should've chosen a better font and made the animation a little smoother. Maybe you could've made the words fade out a little more before changing? But still, I love the manipulation of the photo. Good job. thumbsup.gif

it's nice. The animation font just needs work though. It should blend in more with the banner. Not so white.

--Update

Well. Souldreamers was right. The font was too white and it stood out too much, so I lowered the opacity on that. -AND- I changed the font. It was originally Saginaw and that looked too, well, happy for the pic so I changed it to something else more cursive-y.

Scriptina is the worst font ever.
