			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Hey JTP,

Thanks! Those are helpful.I believe the fact I was on BiM at the time of the animation is the fact of why
I had light flicker! And also I used G.I.M.P 2.6 for the facial animation. Just colour picker,paint over then
smudge inwards and it gave it a good effect! Thanks Again,
-Rob]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[To secure hair, I just get a little ball of bluetak, stick it to the inside of the hair, especially near the back, and press it really hard onto the head. It stays in place well. That should solve your hair problem. Light flicker problem now. Was it you that I gave my tips for light flicker to? Well here they are again :

[u][b]Tips for fixing light flicker:[/b][/u]
[list=*]
[*]Make sure you film at night (Or at least in a dark place)[/*]
[/list]
[list=*]
[*]Use only the lights you use to animate with.[/*]
[/list]
[list=*]
[*]Wear a dark shirt.[/*]
[/list]
[list=*]
[*]Avoid computer flicker if your monitor is facing your animation area (eg. while animating, flicking through brightly coloured websites)[/*]
[/list]
[list=*]
[*]Make sure your camera white balance, exposure, gain etc. is [u]all[/u] on manual[/*]
[/list]

Animation review now.
Right, it was very good actually. I think sticking to 15fps is a good idea. Then you can still use the 4 and 6 frame walk cycle instead of an awkward 7. Don't listen to Legoped. I think it's great. AND the facial animation was really good. What did you use?

OK! All the best,
JTP]]></content>
