Sooooo, I just made an Animutation in 2025... Do people still make these things!?

Back when I was a kid, I made a bunch of these things because they were easy to make; all you had to do to grab some images from and web and make them dance around to music! If I'm feeling like it, I'll post it here.

But anyways, enjoy!

If you haven’t heard about my computer troubles, I’ll give a brief rundown of what happened; in January on a Sunday night my computer unexpectedly crashed and ran into some issues starting up resulting in me taking it to a computer repair store.

Today, I got good news; my computer’s been fixed! I picked it up on Friday and I’m so glad with how much better it functions than it did previously.

On top of that, my the computer’s got a new box case! I first had some issues displaying the screen on my monitor only to found out it was caused by a faulty adapter that connects the box to the monitor. In case you’re wondering, all of my files are saved on the computer, they’re kept in a folder called “windows_old”.

I only got one issue with my refurbished computer; it now takes Ethernet in order to connect to the internet! Unfortunately I don’t have an Ethernet plug in my room so I’ll have to buy me a USB WI-FI adapter so I can surf the web!

In the meantime, I’ll play around with my games and MS Paint until I find a way to get past that stupid Ethernet crap. Once I get WI-FI I’ll get back to doing digital art again!

Just came back from seeing The Day the Earth Blew Up, or as this sign likes to call it; Day the Ear; and BOY was it fun! I enjoyed the goofy animation and expressions, especially coming from Daffy and I gotten some laughs out of it.

I couldn’t find the poster in the hall to take a picture but I gotten this. They had a small stack of these at the front counter.

If you haven’t heard, Sunday night my computer crashed and started to have issues. You can see that here: https://carcitypilot31.newgrounds.com/news/post/1507855

Today, I went to a computer repair shop and told them about the issue. They said that something that helps it start (I forgot what it was) is corrupted and the only way to get it fixed was to do a fresh reset which will cost me $100. This means that everything from the FLA files to my cartoons, unpublished art and animations, my MUGEN creations, and other things will be gone! Although, they can save the files before resetting it, but it’ll most me more. Another solution was to just save up money to get a fresh PC. But this doesn’t mean I won’t be making art anymore, as I’ll be active on my art thread. Or course, I’ll keep you updated if anything happens. This is Carcitypilot signing out!

Just recently, my computer unexpectedly crashed before I was about to upload something here. After going through the “unable to complete the update” thing, I was met with this:

This isn’t the first time this happened, those were solved by System Restore. Unfortunately, there wasn’t any saved points this time…

Now, I’m trying to see if the other options will help save my PC. I’ve been doing art on this PC since 2016 and I currently don’t have the money to get a new one if none of the recovery options work (or use the ‘Reset this PC’ thing). So for the time being you won’t be seeing any new art from me. Instead, I’ll be posting traditional over on my art thread. I’ll follow up if anything happens. This is Carcitypilot signing out!

For quite some time, I've thought about the future of my characters, part of that is having merchandise and movies. I know something like that happening is unlikely, but it would be nice to have shirts, action figures, bobbleheads, buttons, and plushies made of Avery, Liz, Veronica, Pink the Fink, Robert Bloke, and others. However, I'm afraid that they'll become overexposed and milked to death like Spongebob, so it would be best to start off small if it ever becomes a reality.

Besides merch, I've also thought about movies based off my works. It's rare for internet media to be adapted into movies and are mostly hit or miss. Personally, I think Venomous J. Viper and Robert Bloke could work as movies despite the latter not having much stuff to build off of. If a movie was ever made, I would be onboard with the production to make sure that it's as faithful to the source material as possible, and doing fun little promotions like this:

In conclusion, I'm uncertain about what the future has in store for my characters. After all, I'm just a cartoonist doing art for fun!

Hokey smokes, I've reached 100 fans! Our friend Avery has decided to celebrate!

It’s snowing like mad in my area, which means schools are closed! I don’t have any major plans for today, I’ll be drawing some art and maybe do a Robert Bloke comic after neglecting the series for so long (a Robert Bloke comic on a Monday!?). Besides doing that, I’m planning on reading some of the comics I have in my collection (for inspiration and such). Or just sleep-in for half of the day! This is gonna be fun!

Here it is at last!

To wrap things up, our friend Dudley-Do-Right has a message for you:

I just had this idea for a sequel to Avery Humberfloob Eats Taco Bell where he tries out the Volcano Burrito with a cup of Baja Blast and hilarity happens. Maybe Venomous will spoil his meal in some way, or the portrait of Bugs Bunny would suck up his food Kirby-style and eat it. Who knows what would happen!
