Animation Time! - Trixxie Rig

Today's Inspiration:
If you're behind the times, they won't notice you. If you're right in tune with them, you're no better than they are, so they won't care much for you. Be just a little ahead of them.

I think if you're a creative person, you should just go about your business, do your work, and not care about how it's received.
