Hey everyone! I wanted to let you all know that I've *finally* gotten the public beta of the Mac version of the stick figure animation program Stykz
out the door and on its own site (www.stykz.net).

So that is what has become of that stick figure. I didn't see that coming . I thought it was just to be a stick figure. Very inventive. VERY SLICK.


Some of you who were at the last RevCon in Las Vegas may recall me
discussing Stykz and the impact that stick figure animation has had on my
children and how popular it has become.

I can see how the kids would be thrilled with it. It empowers them! Gives them a chance to be creative in a very rich environment.

That is what I saw in Turtle Graphics some years ago. TG is a bit more advance, but again it gives children a chance to be in control. When I was a kid, that first opportunity to be in control was sitting next to my father when he was driving and him letting me take the wheel--cars had bench seats in those days. Got to go LEFT, RIGHT, FORWARD, BACK (well maybe not BACK) with an entire car.

And I can't begin to image the work that went into the polish--above and beyond. Congratulations!

Jim Hurley
