Pictaps is EASILY one of the coolest web sites I’ve seen in a while. Basically, you can make a very simple figure that is instantly animated to dance. Above, you will see my Circle Guy that I made. The guy in the middle dances, and the audience cheers and jumps around by him. The process to make the figure is straightforward, and if you spend enough time with it, you could make a pretty detailed figure. Not only is the premise cool, but I’m very fond of the background the designer put the dancing figure in. It could have been just a blank background, but he puts all of these other bouncing figures in the background and the “camera” moves around to create this very dynamic presentation. Worth the 10 minutes to check it out…
