UNsynchronized Woohoo Chorus: A brief history.

[Ptah]

I've been asked several times "How did you do that?"
Overuse of smileys, most recently
I'd like to remove the mystery, and tell you.

I first saw the synchronized woohoo chorus on a DU Nighthawk thread.

Heidi posted the woohoos, in fully coordinated dance.

I thought I would enjoy seeing them before they got it together, so to speak.

So first I saved an original woohoo, ,
and took it apart.

It is made of 39 frames, like a movie, each with the same amount of time, in a specific order.

I then took out some frames from the original and made woohoo1,

Since woohoo01 has fewer frames it recycles sooner than woohoo.



If the number of frames of woohoo1 are not a fraction of the number of frames in woohoo,.It takes them time from
one apparent alignment to the next will be long.

I reconstructed woohoo five more times, talking out evenly spaced frames, or adding copies of frames,
and some other combinations of frame manipulation.



yadda, yadda


Their names are:

woohoo6.gif
woohoo5.gif
woohoo4.gif
woohoo3.gif
woohoo2.gif
woohoo1.gif

13. I'm teasin' ya, bud. Truly, I'm impressed. I'm so technically lame

that my eyes start to glaze over at the slightest complication. I'm all proud of myself that I finally figured out how to post a pix....with techie help from the hubby of course. :eyes:

:hug:

You are a true Craftsman, in many senses of the word. :thumbsup:

I really like that pix you posted recently of the springtime bud, shooting up. It's such a hopeful image.....

come across it on the 'net. I LOVE trees and I LOVE sunsets, so it was the perfect combo.

:hi:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

That is impressive! Even though I didn't really follow it........

You are a genius at this sort of thing! I can tell, really I can!

Amazing......thank you......

26. I saw that - cool!

and thanks for the explanation - interesting and logical - yet I doubt I would have EVER figured something like that out. Good on you!

[Ptah]

27. Thanks for noticing.

I saw your post about your loss on open range.

I hope it is resolved in you favor, soon.
