Don't we all?  Actually, I was done two days before the deadline.
Usually I'm uploading within a few hours before the deadline.

The new topic will be announced when the voting on the prior topic
begins.  The submissions deadline was about 14 hours ago, so we should
be getting the news within the next day or so.

Regards,
John

Thanks John!  I'm sure you are eager to see what people have come up with
for the previous round (me too).  Although I am new to all this (I will
enter the IRTC stills round with probably a typical newbie entry in a couple
weeks), I look forward to competing with you next time!

I'm surprised that this particular group doesn't get used more by people
engaged in the (labor-intensive) process of making an IRTC entry.

Oh, btw John I admire your animations a lot!

There are only nine entries (at least as far as I can tell from the
directory at the ftp site), so it looks like a lot of people had
trouble thinking of a animation to go with decay.  Of course, with a
character named Rusty, this was not a problem for me :-)

I have the sneaking suspicion that somebody in the IRTC *wants* me to
keep chugging out Rusty animations.

I did "Rusty & Boxer's Bogus Adventure," which featured bugs, and
ended with the phrase "To Be Continued..."  The topic for the next
round?  Creatures.

Then the next topic:  Decay.  As if it would be hard to fit a
character named "Rusty" into that...

The the next topic:  Robot.

I tell ya, it's a conspiracy!
