I feel like a right dumb arse now!  I just read the error message and didn't see the arrow on the video!  D'oh!

Jali - I'll go and have a look at the video now... your arm muscles are incredible!

Are you starting to struggle with the weights, Jali?  Don't hurt yourself... slow things down and ever so slowly increase the weights you lift, maybe?

Hi,

sorry for the late reply, thanks for the encouragement, i'm still training as usual, I've improved a lot since the videos, I'm still dealing with the depression, it's not as bad as it use to be, but I think it's something that I will have to battle with the rest of my life, spending time with my nieces and nephew helps a lot, i'm an animator/ graphic designer by profession, so my niece has been asking me to make an animation of her,

so after months of nagging I finally did it, boy was she happy,

I was going for a Mr bean for kids type of vibe I hope it comes a cross

once a again, thank you from the bottom of my heart, for all the encouragement and help you have provided

They are all awesome video's, Jali!  WTG you!   

Just a bit of constructive criticism though, the "is" in "episode" is really hard for me to read, so maybe you could use a slightly darker background or font colour on each one you make?  Same with a couple of the letters in the bit at the bottom of episodes 1 and 2?

Sowwy!  Feel free to tell me to get knotted if you like, just thought I should mention it is all

thanks for replying,

yeah, I realised that too, the weird thing is they look fine on my laptop, I might just change the font colour so it's darker, it's good to hear from you, I've missed chatting with you, your messages with motivate me, sometimes all you need in life is for one person to ignite the spark to get the fire that burns inside of you to burn brighter. so thank you,

by the way did you try those exercises I suggested for you?

i'll be posting more often, hope to hear from you soon

[Amanda_George]

I'm using a laptop too... maybe try looking at it on a PC monitor instead of a laptop just to be sure?

Can't remember if I tried the exercises or not!  Can I be a PITA and ask you to send them again please?  Sowwy!
