I made this the week before Christmas but didn't get around to posting it. It's an incredibly speedy emoticon who enjoys spinning - as he is about to stop time slows down enough to allow us to see him gradually turning before it speeds up again and he drops to the ground..

There are some things to correct with his movement - I wanted him to gradually spin faster moving into the air as he did so at first he only manages to hop short distances into the air until he creates enough momentum to make that final leap. He teeters from side to side at first until he manages to spin on the spot. It's this transition from teetering to hopping and the hopping itself that looks a bit odd so I'll edit it when I feel up to it. I may make the hops slightly bigger because it looks like he's just jittery at the moment.

Made in MSPaint, frames uploaded in Beneton Movie GIF, saved as a batch of gifs, then moved into unFREEz and frame-rates adjusted in Microsoft Gif Animator.

Beneton Movie GIF won't let me save any more so I need to find a new program I can use. If you know of any free ones please tell me.
