Did anyone watch the animation display at NWBrickCon? There hasn't been much feedback, and the folks who submitted films are keen to know how they went down. Anyone? (21 years ago, 17-Oct-03, to lugnet.events.nwbrickcon)

And nothing says welcome more than packing him, your wife, 2 cats, the dog, and yourself into the car for a vet visit. Many thanks for the extra hands, Eric. (...)

(...) Good fun! Like Tim said, the timing is a little off 'cause it changes frames just after all the text visualize on some of them. A word of warning for non-broadband users; The file is ~25.2MB! (zipping it it became 24.8MB). (21 years ago, 10-Oct-03, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.events.nwbrickcon, lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
