Lately I have enjoyed painting with the Flash-based Graffiti application on Facebook. Sometimes I think it is fun to see what I can do with the restrictions of a simple little paint program. The only real special feature that the application has is the ability to adjust the opacity of your paint. Anyway, below are some of the images I have produced with it. If anyone else has used it, I would love to see what you have made.

Also the application has a somewhat new feature that allows people to play back the drawing line-by-line.
I have uploaded a few of these to youtube. Originally I had done this because of friend of mine couldn't view
it in her browser and the one I had made told a story through all of the layers of the drawing. Here are the
replays on youtube:

Ah. I know that face book application too. I added it and am fiddling around with it.

But some time back, I stumbled across Sketchcast.com. It is quite rudimentary and I have been hooked.

The best part is, it plays back the process of sketching.

I have been making a lot many of these sketchcasts (more like artcasts), and atleast it keeps me in practice during heavy work days at my job.

Here are some (plugs) sketchcasts I made:

They let you play back!? When did they add that? I did one yesterday - how can I check the playback functionality?
And another one - do they let us embed it elsewhere like Sketchcast lets us? If that be the case, then I am totally shifting to Grafitti.

If you click on one of the graffiti images on someones profile it brings you to a page where you can see it larger. On that page there shouldl be a button (I think it is green} titled "Replay".
Click it and it will take you to the replay. I don't really use IE, but it seems that some of my friends have had problems using the replay on Internet Explorer. The replay function was added
maybe a month ago, so any of the images made prior to that will not have a replay. I haven't tinkered with it too much, but it doesn't look like they want you to embed it on other sites.

Wow, nice artwork all... Do any of you use those drawing tablets? or just a mouse? I have a Wacom Intuos 3, and makes doing work in Photoshop so much easier most of the time.

Wow, I must have totally missed that last part of your post. To put them on youtube, I did a screen-capture with a program called AutoScreenRecorder. Then I just cropped them and put them to sound in aftereffects.

At home I do not have a tablet. I just used a regular optical mouse for these. At work I have the luxury of a nice big waccom tablet and it definitely helps. I might have to buy one for my home projects some day.
