The "contact" feature of the site has been broken for some time so I'll get this out of the way here.

The animation "so called virus stick figure" that OSC linked to in this week's reviews column is actually called "Animator vs. Animation". It was created by a talented animator named Alan Becker but has since been ripped off many times without attribution (often in a lower-quality version such as the one linked to).

You'll find a much better (and legitimate) link at http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/animator

Have a great day, everybody!

...but that's also a different animation from the one OSC linked to.

Here is Alan Becker's original animation, "Animator vs. Animation II," from his DeviantArt account:

Also includes a tidbit at the end not present in the copy OSC indicated.
