Facebook Graffiti Bare-bones digital Painting

Recommended Posts

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.

I finally got the application that lets you play back - seems like I was using another application.

 

Here one I drew:

foolakadugie, how did you conver them to YouTube videos?

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.

 

 

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.

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.
