WCSMT 2 Status

Ever since the crash of WCSMT, we’ve thinking about the way to bring it back out little home-brew experiment a sustainable presentation. Plans were drawn, sketches made and a new version is in full development.

So here are some announcements regarding the near future of WCSMT:

All animated .gifs will be deleted by Dec 9th, 2008

If you are fond of any particular animation you created, download it now.

It pains me to take these offline but we gotta make room for the new version to come. Of course this animations are backed up and we’ll put them back online when we find some space.

The new version should roll also in DECEMBER 9th 2008 :)

For the time being, we are dropping the animated gif format as our presentation format, as it is very bulky to store and transmit. Instead we are switching to PNG files, played back by a custom flash player embedded on HTML.

However it will be possible to download all animations as animated .gif for those who want to store the animations themselves.

Animations will have a 20 frame limit, instead of 10 and will have greater resolution.

Animations will have an expire date, after which they will be deleted to make room for the newer ones and keep things in a manageable size. We have yet to determine what is the best expiry time on our animations. We appreciate suggestions.

There will be some minimum ads on the site.

Animations will be moderated.

These are some screenshots of the new version:
