I really enjoy exploring the pages of the artists and their friends... And, in response to the NC-17 stuff - I think that refers only to pornographic stuff... - but i could be wrong ok ok - i really must get back to work now...! Thanks for sharing! :) here’s why i like mytoons better than youtube for animation:

* i like that MyToons is more streamlined…i’ve always felt a bit overwhelmed by youtube (not that that has impeded their success at all…!)

* the player is definitely better; sharper, bigger, doesn’t restart when you change sizes….

* the ui is a lot more tantilizing than youtubes - it’s like eye-candy!

The viewer is super-smooth and it should be a good place to meet other people who are interested in or make animation.

And no - MyToons is not Israeli, though there are of course MyToons members and animation content from many different lands. MyToons Inc. head office is in San Antonio, Texas.
