Joe owes me 10 bucks, so I wouldnt' give him the time of day to make a comment for a sign for him

dude, big gossy is sleepin' but he's not dreaming of 1's and 0's?!?! I'm so disappointed! and I thought he was a real bit chomper!

He had too much turkey. He might be on the edge of a coma. He hasn't even entered rem sleep yet.

Can you add the buzzy noise?

Viewed through a grubby window no one would ever know.........


Looks good to me.

Looks kewl. Colors could be brighter, though.

[OuTpaTienT]

Brighter? How?

Are you seeing the entire animation or just the first frame?

On the yellow, if you change the R=ff and G=ff and B= 0 the yellow becomes brighter. In the 17th frame.

[OuTpaTienT]

Oh, thanks. Now I understand.

Any brighter and it starts to become white.

You do understand that it's not an actual light, right? It doesn't emit it's own photons and can't illuminate your room over or above what you monitor does.

I mean a brighter shade of yellow in the final frame. Or even in the second frame.

I used to do a lotta neon stuff, I'll look around for some examples to post. 'Course, that was airbrush, which is ideally suited for rendering it. Computer will do it better, probably.

One thing I did was to go and look at some neon, to figure out how to render it...for example, with RED neon, you start with a yellow letter, and 'fan out' the edges with red...leaving a yellow core in the shape, then radiating red. Try it, you'll dig it!
