See, if you would have licked the toilet bowl instead of the toilet seat, not only wouldn't you have gotten sick, you would also have developed herd immunity against toiletteitis.

Well the flu let me do that regardless of whether or not I wanted it! Thanks Trevor, back to work now :)

Glad you got some family time in at least! My recommendation for any travel: take 3 to 5 days to reset once you get home if possible. Your brain will probably be chowder.

Harry Partridge

You have to make time for loved ones. Hope you're doing well, Sam :)

This is why you put a toilet seat cover down BEFORE you lick it.

Thank you William. Happy new year! x

You need some time to recharge and renew. Glad you got it!

Yea i feel you. I was missing those as well at first but most of it is replaced by touch gestures on the iPad. I.e. to flip between drawings in lots of apps you slide your hand across the screen using three fingers (two-finger tap is usually the undo command). It feels weird at first but i got used to it pretty quickly and it came natural after a few days. Seating height is indeed a problem but there are things like the darkboard that are basically like big stands that hold an iPad so you can have it more at a Cintiq level. AND: you can connect any bluetooth keyboard with your iPad and still use keyboard shortcuts in the animation apps if you prefer :) However having said all that by now these things are probably as big of an investment as a new PC but yea... still love mine nonetheless haha.

Thanks Joel, yeah I see a lot of good things about the ipad. For me a lot of it is stuff like express buttons, seating/desk height, lighting etc. Trying to recreate all of that on the go is difficult, but I'd rather work inefficiently than not at all :)

Good to be home, Gregor! xxx

Welcome back and cool to see you working abroad! I can honestly vouch for an iPad Pro. Yes, they're pricy, but being able to animate wherever you go without having to carry 50 tons of equipment and monitors with you is really a blessing. An App like "Callipeg" can even spit out Harmony Files if you want i.e. do some rough animation on the go, export to Toon Boom with all layers intact and clean up there, etc. There's also ToonSquid which is pretty much Flash on the go with Symbols and all ;) Perhaps something to consider one day.
