Hello guys. Take a look at what i made. I'm hoping to, when i ever create a tutorial with a video to put this in the beginning =)

It's made with anim8or. Simply typed an 'O' stretched and twitched it untill it looked, as good as it gets, on the logo. The top left is a bit 'fat' imo, but well...
Don't forget to put youtube on "480p" at the bottom right of the player. (When viewed at the youtube site itself)

It's 14 seconds, 6.5MB:bad: and it should be 800x600.

I can send it if you like, or can i add the movie (.avi) to this post somehow too?

nice!!!!!!!
keep up the work!

Looks cool. Every video tutorial done for Codecall should have that before. Better advertising for forums too :)

It doesn't look bad, but I think you could improve it. Especially the animation is kind of... strange. The logo should move more fluently. Sorry if it sounds a bit harsh...

Thats what you get with third party products editing another third party format.
Oxano: Set the framerate higher for a smoother animation, or try it in Blender?

What do you mean by this:

Ye i know, i made that animation in 5 mins or so ^^

I believe i've set it to 10fps.. there is a slight chance it looks better with 30 :D

Yes, that's right. ^^
Another point is that the reflections look a bit artificial... maybe you should work on that.

The green part of the Code Call logo is also messed up - the bottom side of that...object...should be all green.

Okay, the day has ended for me, see ya in 11 hours or so ^^
I started over from scratch to get the green correct(er) and to make it thinner. As I found the previous logo pretty "fat".

Result so far:

Try to improve the text, too. ;)

Any ideas what i should do with the text? I'll continue with it this weekend, making the logo yet again as i didn't save it.... Practice makes perfect :D

My previous image showed the text a bit gray, but that's just a light issue. I've put a light pointed on the green part of the logo as that was a bit dark, creating the shadow on the white part behind on the logo and making everything else a bit darker..
