buuut probably no one gonna touch that so how about a simple 10-frame preloader like this (still don't feel like coding right now)

Both are really awesome! I like the simple one a bit better, white background and all. It'll be enough to get viewers attention and the throwback to B is swell! I think it should def be that one.

I love this one. If i could change anything I would have it sitting on a little pillar thing with 'Clock Day' carved into it very subtly, and then the play button (just sorta standard and smooth looking, separating it from the pillar/'13) under that. But thats my auxiliary 2-cents. It's a gorgeously simplistic design as is.

Vrc I love you more and more everyday. We're going with his design fellas its perfect

I could make this work in AS2 in like ten seconds

Quote from: AstronautClock;1955007I like it the way it is. just a simple dragging it across the field would be perfect imo. less work also

that would be the best strategy. a simple dragging across the field, no 13th mile far into the background, man.
it will be too hard to animate/code

this. THIS is the best plan for a preloader.
also, i second rob's great idea:

But thats my auxiliary 2-cents. It's a gorgeously simplistic design as is.

also, imo the pillar should write ''Clock Day '13'', we shoudnt forget to mention that this is '13. (and maybe mention somewhere in the background, that it's been 12 years of B)

oh, i did this little animation for a preloader of clock-day 2013.

Quote from: OcarinaClock;1953689i put my heart in soul into this and hope that it gets used!  finally a contribution on my behalf.

i'll just put this in for a few seconds and the beginning and maybe people will think that it's a loader.

Quote from: pop-tart;1955459Why is Darkmatter wearing a Batman mask?

err actually, it's a black-cat, symbolizing the ''bad-luck'' of the number 13, since this year's clock-day happens in the year of '13, and it's like friday the 13th, 13th scaring people, and stuff, etc etc

so, SBC is afraid of the black-cat, and of the '13, but in the end, with the help of his friends and of the clock-crew, he conquers all of his fears.

that is all.

I would like a preloader that touches on my love of the number 13.
