Sounds at Night

Based on a true story. Two days ago, at like… 4:30am, I was awoken by some strange noise outside. I don’t know why I ignored it, but I guess I probably just thought I was dreaming or something. But then it kept repeating and eventually it got really loud and it was pretty scary. It’s like someone was screaming right outside my window or something. Then I went upstairs and my dad said it was some cats fighting. And it probably was, but it was really scary. Like really.

(Nicovideo)

Well, it’s not Touhou, and I don’t really know much about IDOLM@STER, but the animation is nice. And the song’s in English. If only I were able to animate like that…

Satori


(Better examples of the new features can be found here)

Added Satori Komeiji to create.swf. Thefre has also added the option to insert external images as objects. This can be found by going to the main menu, insert, image, and entering the URL of the image. The imported image can then be resized, rotated, or filtered (blur, grayscale, etc). With this, it’s possible to make your own backgrounds and objects and stuff, and then just insert them into create.swf. In fact, the image above was made in create.swf without any modifications besides cropping the image in paint. Here’s Thefre’s changelog for this week:

=New Features
-MS UI Gothic font is available for Japanese text.
-New Filter option available for snapshots. Accessible from target menu.
-Text colorization is now available.
-Importing external images is now possible from the insert menu.

=Fixes
-Death by Yuyuko’s suction trajectory is now more direct.

Due to flash’s security settings, it is impossible for the online version of the create.swf to import external images from domains other than walfas.org. When importing images from walfas, it is important that the url begins with http://www.walfas.org exactly. If you wish to import images from other locations, then you must download the create.swf and run it locally.

The last part basically means that you have to download the swf if you want to import images from other sites (right-click, save as, and open the file from your computer with a web browser or flash program). However, once you have the swf file on your computer, you can import images from any site, including local directories (directly from your computer) by typing in a valid directory path (ex: “C:folderanother_folderimage.png”). Have fun!

(Nicovideo / Original ED)

I’m guessing this is a parody of the ED of Seto no Hanayome, another anime I have never seen. Yeah. That’s basically it.

Late Dismissals

It probably will be pretty dark outside when we get dismissed from school in the winter, especially on Fridays when it takes an hour to get to my house; it’ll be 5pm by the time I get home. Anyhow, today was a shorter day than usual, because on Thursdays I don’t have a double period of calculus, so it’s 43 minutes shorter.

In other news, this is the 500th blog post. Wow, 500 blogs posts already! I’d probably make a bigger deal out of this if the one-year anniversary wasn’t just awhile ago. But it was.
