Awesome!  Thank you SO much, blind.filmmaker! I really appreciate all of that!

Yay, somebody finally noticed my cowboy showdown!  I actually worked on that a lot longer than it probably would ever look like it. But I had a definite idea of what I wanted there -- a faded-out, sort of old pen-and-ink drawing of a classic Western showdown. It took a long time to find the right angles on the saloon and I never did find two cowboys in the right poses. So I used two reference pics and drew over them!  Which is why I tried to keep them moving fast. I'm not exactly brilliant in drawing with a mouse...

Ah, and you got another of the things I had to work quite hard on! WMM will sepia tone a clip for you. What it WON'T do is fade out to sepia tone. It just slams into it! So I had to figure out a way to get it to do a gradual fade out or fade in. It didn't come out perfect but I was still fairly pleased with it. I usually get tickled when I managed to figure out a way to force one of the WMMs into doing something that they really can't do! At least, that they can't do with the click of a button!
But I AM seriously loving all the things you can do with the click of a button, BTW!
Thank you again for your review! It really made my day!

On the grounds that I don't want to start an emoticon war of ":shock" emoticons, and that I have no other way to respond to that post of yours, I'm just gonna stay quiet
So that was me saying nothing. |

Wow A, you always cease to amaze me ... or ... you never cease to amaze me.  You know what I mean. Another superb video.
I loved the fades to sepia and the old western showdown.

Aw, thank you, Jane! *hugs* I really appreciate you taking time to check it out and to comment! This was my first vid with WMM 2 and its sepia and so forth effects, so I was really worried about it looking good. So glad that you liked it!
And I forgot that this one doesn't have a downloadable link anymore... *goes to fix that*
Thanks again!
ETA: New downloadable link, just in case! http://www.badongo.com/vid/164645 |

| Thank you! I'm sure that eventually I'll do a full-on Sayid vid. I'm slowly starting to cover other characters than Sawyer (*gasp!* There are other characters than Sawyer in this show??? ). But I'm glad you enjoyed what Sayidness this vid did have! |
