Hi Juan, Although Dave's technique of using color gradient to simulate onion skinning may seem cumbersome, it works pretty well for those of us coming from traditional animation backgrounds. This product your friend is working on sounds interesting. Do you have a prototype as yet? I have thought of developing an animation package myself. But with coding all day (I develop Computer Aided Dispatch software for Counties), animating at night and attending school part-time it's kind of tight. But if you need some assistance or advice on development issues, I'd be glad to help. I'd like to see an affordable animation package that doesn't ignore the traditional art of animation. (My expertise is in 'C', I've been developing 'C' for UNIX, DOS and Windows for ten years). And remember Dave shouldn't be chastised for finding tricks in the tools he has, many have benefited from them. Good luck, Paul Frey Our World Comics
