Animation & Interactivity

The last two pages of Ninja Shizatch (as of today, so 113 and 112) have had more animation in them than any other pages, as far as I can remember. As a whole, Issue 5 has had more animation and interactivity than any other issue as well.

So my question to you, readers new and old, regular and casual, is, quite simply, what works for you?

To expand upon that question, the first point would be, do you like the fact that there is animation? Interactivity? Are those one of the reasons you read Ninja Shizatch? The heart of the matter is really, what type of animation/interactivity do you want to see more/less of?

Basically, I want to deliver more of what you want, and less (or none of) what you don't. If Easter Eggs don't do it for you, let me know. If you like subtle, background animations that don't take center stage, speak up. Feel free to point out specific pages or frames to help explain what you do/do not like; all input is immensely appreciated, and will serve to help make Ninja Shizatch into something you'll enjoy even more.


What sparked me to ask these questions was a casual stumbling upon a forum in which animation in webcomics was being discussed, and NS was mentioned. It was said that through my experimentations, sometimes the animation doesn't work, and I'd have to agree. One poster mentioned that the pulsing logo had to go - does anyone else agree on this? Honestly, the reason it's there is so that anyone casually stumbling upon the comic will immediately notice the animation - it's a sort of hook. I agree that it is somewhat distracting, but nothing prevents the reader from scrolling down until it is out of sight... But if you guys want it out, it's gone.
