That is an epic story full of emotion. And does he get the chick in the end?
Guess you will have to watch it.

Toontoonz -
Thanks for your reply. I hope that it's full of emotion, since I come from a theater background: even if something is funny, I want my characters to have emotions. Even in a 2 minute cartoon.
So thank you.
Everyone else, please comment. I see that there are 80 views, but only toontoonz comment.
If I am to learn and make progress, I must have comments and criticism!

Followed low res link twice; waited a long time on each occasion, with nothing happening. I'd comment if I could!

I had same problem with low res link.
The page might be saying 80 people saw it - but maybe all they got was to logged to opening that page.
Check into it.
(I did see the 60 Mb version.!!!!)
A general comment - ever notice how everybody that draws using the Moho drawing tools that their art all has a similar look to it??? Perhaps maybe I need to get my eyes checked....

I'm still a bit speachless. Well, I saw the 60 MB version and wow, what a drama!
I agree with Toontoonz, the walks are a bit Moho-y, but the story and music are great.

I'll check on it, and yeah, I realize that just because the counter says "80" doesn't mean that that many people have actually seen the animation. But I thought I'd have more than one response.

Okay, I just looked at the link, and it seems to be okay for me. Maybe there were some problems with putfile.com?

I think you're absolutely right. I did all of the drawing with the vector drawing tools, and the looks is definitely "moho". My goal here was to learn moho, learn some particles, and learn how to put it together with the music. Next time, I want to do lip sync and have an "artistic" look. But you're right, this is the "moho baseline" look. LOL

Well i liked the story and the speech bubbles (especially that one where that sheep got nekkid and the one where the cow got hamburger).
The music reminded me of some 40s or 50s movies...
Can you tell me where it's from?
A good first animation to start with and to test multiple techniques combined and i am sure you will accomplish the artistic look soon

Thanks for your comments Mr. Blaaa.
The music is by Robert Russell Bennett, and is titled "Suite of Old American Dances." The piece I used was the first movement, Cakewalk, which I edited down to 2 mins. Some notes on that piece are here (scroll all the way to the bottom):
