Cheers folks, Steve: are you avoiding proper work too, join the club! Good luck with your pirate. Si: In my dreams! As for your take on the story.... pretty far from the mark I'm afraid, good on ya for taking a guess though. I've really got to start drawing up the storyboard, get these images out of my head and onto paper. I know that, once I start, I'll really enjoy it but right now it seems a pretty mammoth task. On another note, I've succesfully avoided what I should be doing so far today by adding sound and a little extra to my intro... Click THIS LINK to take a look. Enjoy, Mat.
