Called and spoke with Adobe customer support and the guy told me Adobe is discontinuing Animate because apparently the company can't think of any new features to add to the program and they feel it's gotten stale.
So they're just GETTING RID OF IT???

I AM FURIOUS.
Adobe Animate remains an industry standard for TV animation. Star Trek: Lower Decks was made in Animate. Haunted Hotel was made in Animate. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic was made in Animate.
And because you can't buy a permanent licence anymore, it'll just be gone.

I've been slowly watching through the OG sailor moon for the first time (I've only ever seen a couple episodes in full) and the animation on the spotlight in the eyecatch is SO appealing.
It's so snappy but the cushions and arcs are perfect so it still feels very natural

it's also not just about replacing color with screentones or gray--it's about EVERY choice you make, from thumbs to inks, even balloon placement. i often use color as a way to create contrast, and without it, i'd have to find other ways to create that contrast. look at the difference here!

WATCH THIS MOVIE PLEASE!
A real surprise favourite from last year - so funny, so fun to watch, what a great flick. It's not as simple as "you can just make a movie" because Julian Glander is extremely talented, but.. if you want to, you can just make a movie. And this one might inspire you to do it!

Wonder how people in mt pleasant would feel to know that a company working in their neighbourhood is working with ICE to deport and detain and abuse and kill
