First off, if you don't know what YTMND is goto the About site.

And for main site here.Admin note: Some of the clips listed on the YTMND front page may be offensive to some people.

I created this YTMND for obviously my mom. She doesn't love Mac as much as us, but still adores him because we are so similar.

I based some of the pieces off of MacGyver fads listed on this page.

Now my goal is not to get popular votes or whatnot....I just wanted to make something different for my mom and show my love of Mac...

So here yous go: MacGyver Saves Mother's Day (The image and sound combined is about 1.8MB total)

The reason this is late is because I could not optimize the dang GIF; the first time I did it, it was 3.5MB!! I used GIMP, which is a very cool program (the scripts are written using Scheme, a LISP derivative; something I thought I would never use that I learned in school.)

I employed images from many websites including the best Mac page on on the net wink.gif (that's where the watch comes into play.)

It did take me a while to do this because I was learning the tools in GIMP, how to deal with GIFs, YTMND rules, OPTIMIZING, and just thinking what to do. But it was very fun. If anyone wants some pointers on doing something similar, I could start a post when I have some more time on what to do...

Let me know what you think.

toodles...

laugh.gif Remote gardening! roller.gif clapping.gif That was fun!

I got a bit confused at first because it didn’t start at the beginning of the loop for me. I’m guessing it starts with the "Clunk"?

That was cute. Only thing I would suggest is to slow the timing down, if you can. smile.gif

Yes, YTMND has evolved into a lot of juvenile stuff....thanks for adding the warning. When you goto the main page, goto About. That is what I should've linked to first...(I fixed it now)

Do you want me to slow down every frame? Right now, every frame is at least 2ms long some 2.5. I tried to make the ones with longer text a little longer too. I'd still like all frame to fit within the song.

Not necessarily. It's just that some of the longer captions were hard to get all of before it flipped to the next frame. Got it all after second run through tho. smile.gif
