This is my walk cycle test I made today using my new camera.
Enjoy!

Different from most of walk cycle. I like it. I had a similar walk cycle, that I used in a non-finished 18 fps brickfilm. What Framerate do you use?
It looked like everytime a leg went out, he moved a stud forward. This tutorial should help. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwaDTySZBOU
MPFist0,
Well, because I was using the dreaded Windows Live Movie Maker program, I made each frame 0.12 of a second.
If your wondering why I used Windows Live movie Maker, it's because I'm still having trouble with monkeyjam.
Glad you liked it 
LTWProductions,
Thanks for the link man, and I've already seen it, but I decided to create my own walk cycle. But I guess it really isn't a walk cycle, it's just long strides I guess. Also, that is the first walk cycle I have ever done with effort.

Personally, I prefer this walk cycle to the one LTW posted. I saw nothing wrong with it.
If you have troubles with monkey jam, feel free to ask in the forum, someone will be able to answer you.

Try NXTmaniacs tutorial, it provides smoother walking: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j93RF2DGGdk

Thats the one I was trying to find but I couldn't.

It makes since when you say stride. It does looks like a stride. keep practicing and you will get better. Trust me.
Thanks guys, but there were some minor problems with several frames.
You see the minifigure actually moves a stud to the left, because he kept falling over.
Should I redo one, then upload a video showing how to do the procedure, or not?
Yes, try having more frames with tinier movements and increase the framerate. Maybe some plasticene would help in not making it fall.
nice:)
