I've been doing stupid things in blender for many years now and have only now learned the strange squishy things are called metaballs and not meatballs.
Here is a preview of Blinkie.world, my blinkie collecton site! The goal here is to collect every blinkie on earth (but only if they're free to use, and can be credited). They're all sorted into these color pages, and also sorted into tons of sub categories on other pages (like food, animals, holidays, etc etc). This is what some of the color pages look like now! Once I have at least 300 blinkies in each color, then I'll consider the site full enough to go live! I'm aiming to get it online by Art Fight (aka by July this year).
Do note that this isn't actually an accurate representation of how many I have. I have thousands more than this! I just have to code them all in. It's not as quick as just an image tag and a link, because it also needs to be named, linked to it's source, tagged so I know what categories they're in, have a link to a screenshot that proves who the creator is and their terms (in case the credit link dies one day), have alt text, and have hover text which says the creator and a description of what the blinkie says! So, it's not like this:
<img src="">
It's actually like this:
<a href="" target="_BLANK">
<img src="" alt="" title="Credit: . ID: """></a>
<!--Categories: -->
<!--Screencap: -->
And that's for every blinkie! You can probably see how this is so time consuming, but I think it's worth it. I've never seen a blinkie collection with 6,000+ blinkies, much less every single one credited, and even less sorted into dozens of categories! It's like I have a blinkie for everything, while also knowing the creator of each, and being able to easily search for a specific one via the sorting system! It's especially good for helping others find blinkies, and helping people get the sources for blinkies they already have! It's also great for finding blinkies to use for your ocs (which is my initial reason for doing this).
I'm very excited about this. I really think this could be a very fun resource for people, and that aside, I just really like having so many in my possession. I love to see them. I even have blinkies that I've downloaded before they were deleted off the internet! That's very exciting to me. I have blinkies that are straight up lost media, and I'm happy to be able to preserve them.
Of course as I said, it's going to take forever to add them all, but I'm chipping away at it. I shall not be stopped! Also, if you want a blinkie in any of these screenshots above, just let me know! I'll get it and it's source for you, easy peasy! I'll post more screenshots as significant progress is made, but for now, it's back to downloading blinkies!
i was rewatching the gameoverse pilot and a noticed something that i haven't seen anyone talking abt, so i wanted to share a theory that i have.
So, we know that kit's original world is full of cat people, we can see this in the beggining of the pilot.
As the hero, kit has to protect her planet from the villains, who are robots
However, you know who also is a robot but is on the hero's side?
Kaboodle.
I also noticed that he has some similiar characteristics to the villains, like just having one eye and the shape of their arms and legs.
It's not identical, but i don't think that's a coincidence.
Perhaps kaboodle used to be a villain but after meeting kit at some point he decided helping her?
(This could also explain a little kaboodle's personality. For example, in the scene where him, kit and goobles are in the spaceship, kaboodle says that goobles was usseless and that he would have left him for dead.
Now, i know that this scene was more for humor and this could just be kaboodle being himself, but if you think about it, his way of thinking and acting is not really the way you would normally describe a hero acting like, even if he's not on the villain's side.)
I also think that if thas true, maybe kit's friend scratch could also have modified him in some aspects so he could be able to help kit or maybe just be able to be there, since she is very likely to be some sort of mechanic
Robot guys who switched from evil team to good team and now are trying to protect their reified digital universes with voice actors that you swear you can recognize from another thing but still have to look up to make sure is such a good concept for a fictional character.
