    - What makes this site great to have is that community feel. As we are all animators, we are friendly, communal people… Almost all of us work in teams, all directed with a goal of success and making the best possible visuals for our peers and everyone else to enjoy. MyToons gives us a place to expand on our contacts, gain respectable feedback in our work, and continue to strive for the great acheivements we all know can be possible…

    - And the contests are great too!!

  5. David Heredia Says:

    Aside from the incredible exposure you get and constructive criticism you’re given from fellow animators, it’s a great social network for all artists.

  10. Right On! Says:

    Mytoons is the best place ever to show your artwork. It can also help you with your future.

  11. wilsonjhenry Says:

    Mytoons is where inspiration is found, molded and actualized. I have found inspiration from the most Seasoned Industry Vets to elemntary school doodlings. Mytoons is where the Creative Conscious brings us together to secure and establish the impetus and progression of the Animation Life force. Oh yeah, and Mytoons is just plain RAD!

  12. justin rasch Says:

    All the ANIMATION!!!!!!!!!

  13. Jas Says:

    Lo que más adoro de MyToons es la cantidad de VIDA que contiene. La VIDA que todos los animadores dan a sus personajes y que gracias a MyToons podemos disfrutar en el mundo entero.

    Thank you MyToons!!

  14. Joe VanSpronsen Says:

    The best part about MyToons is the inspiration and motivation. You have the ability to be constantly inspired by fellow animators, amateurs and professionals alike, and the the motivation to keep pursuing your goals by the communal feel and the contests. It’s a light bulb over your head and a kick in your pants.

  15. Alex Pelletier Says:

    My toon is amazing! It’s the best place to get information about animation, discover new artists, watch movie, talk about animation and there’s also great contest. So, can it be better? I don’t think!

  16. Amauri Monteiro Schinelli Says:

    With MyToons i can study, and learn, for my son (6 years age)and teaching for my nephews (12 and 14 years age) how to make and “read” the animations from all word, and times. Thanks for your job.

  17. Orlando Fonseca Jr. Says:

    Ok! So, animation is a tough thing, lots and lots of work, but then, you got a place to go and have a happy hour, and, this is what MyToons is about.

    Hanging with friends, beeing inspired by talented people, and watch, make and taste what we all love.

  18. Toninho Says:

  19. Becky Bryan Says:

    Mytoons is the best place to go and show others your work, while at the same time I’m seeing what others in the animation community are up to! Keeping up with what’s going on in the animation world is so easy here!

  21. Grootfontein Says:

    What I like about mytoons.com is that they are smart :
    The most part of the advertising is made by the community… even their slogan ! (see other posts)

  22. Shlomo Pines Says:

    As an aspiring animator mytoons has given me direct access to animations of all types. You click it you get it, Whether its 2-d, 3-d or stop motion mytoons has got it all. Its been inspiring to see what other animation students out there have come up with and mytoons gets me hooked-up on the latest stuff. Go Goo Mytoons!!!

  23. Shayan Saeedi Says:

    Animation is an amazing world and Mytoons is representing it in a good way and I really appreciate it!

  24. fabian dores pais Says:

    hey, I love Mytoons because you can take a part to a lot of contests and share your creativity and the judges are professional, like interspectacular. It’s a wonderful hub to show our work, thanks a lot for your professionalism.
    See you soon.
    bye

  25. Joe Jozwowski Says:

    MyToons.com, what a concept. They have a community for Videos, they have a community for Deviant Art, heck they even have a community for hookin’ up with your neighbor. But when I first heard about MyToons.com, I thought to myself, “FINALLY! Something I can actually get behind!” It’s great that millions of animators across the globe can finally get together and bend each other’s ear for the latest and greatest in animation, stop-motion, and all sorts of creations. Not only can you share your animation, but your can share you created games that you take pride in creating. So Kudos to MyToons.com for finally bringing something to web worth surfing…. well a community that doesn’t cost you &9.95 a minute.

  26. aj Says:

    its no question that just love this site. the community is great, the design and functionality of the site kicks all kinds of @$$.
    Made a lot of new friends who like to talk about things that artist/animators and geeks like to talk about it. I Love it!

    Everything Animated bay-bee. Including Me!
    anything else is just something else. MyTooooooooooooooons!
    :)

  27. anne Says:

  28. Vanessa Correa Says:

  29. Robert Versteegen Says:

    MyToons gives me a chance to see other people’s fantastic animations and to show my own. I get great feedback from animators from all over the world which helps me to get better and stimulates me to go on.
    Did I already say that I love MyToons? Well, I absolutely do!

  30. Katie Says:

    I love the set-up of the Mytoons site, I call it a “facebook for animators.” It is the perfect place to introduce your work to an audience who loves animation. When I joined I was instantly hooked!

    Mytoons has a very supportive staff, they are always leaving great feedback and they make sure to acknowledge the artwork posted onto their site. What more could an you ask for, Mytoons has it all!

  31. Maycon Sadala Says:

    Well, I like MyToons because I can watch what I like most: animations! What else could be?

  32. Wubbaweb Says:

    MyToons has an awesome community, the people who are on it give great feedback, constructive criticism and great appreciation. it’s been a rewarding experience to be part of. Thanks!

  33. Olympian Eagle Says:

    The number of times I’ve uploaded my work on a different website and had it taken off for being “too mature”!!!!

    I’m glad Mytoons accept all kinds of animation and artwork, so that we’re only restricted by our imaginations.

    And when I had problems using the site, the staff were kind enough to send me personal messages relating to my problem and I always feel appreciated. I’m glad to have made some good friends who share my enthusiasm!

  34. KMLove Says:

    What makes Mytoons.com so great is that it is created BY Animators FOR Animators. Mytoons understands our needs and that’s the bottom line.

  35. James Says:

    Because Mytoons is the dark side of the Internet…where all the cool people with lightsabers hang out!

    …and Because mytoons totally ROCKS your FACE off!

  36. James Says:

    also, just curious, when does this contest end?

  37. Adam Says:

    Im new to mytoons, and I love it! It has inspired me to do so much more then i usually do (and i do a LOT!) I can’t seem to animate fast enough to get more stuff up to see what people will say about it. I have met a lot of great people so far as well. So it’s a great tool for networking. (i only wish i new about this site last year when i was looking for new talent for my studio)
    Over all, it’s a great site whether you are an animator, artist, or even just a cartoon fan!

  38. Danny Rico Says:

    My toons is fantastic! Meeting pros in the field has been one the best experiences for a student animator. Especially when they give you a good critique. Thanks My Toons! - Danny Rico

  39. spreadeaglemonkey Says:

    i like the fact that it’s local for me…go rackspace go…it’s very nice to see something that doesn’t originate in new york or l.a. go mytoons go, go spurs go. oh and, your compressor is very nice, my cartoons look very sharp here, as opposed to other sites…(well as sharp as they can..) I like the variety of avatars (even though I uploaded my own) all of yours rock. and last but not least i like that it is exclusive to animation, all animation. you guys are very clever for that… oh yeah, your site is just plain cool. you guys rock.

  40. Andymation Says:

    Can’t get enough of mytoons!
    It’s an amazing spot for animation students to get some extra critiquing to go along with what our professors and instructors tell us. Perfect for beginners and experts alike in sharing what they know about animation and getting the information they need to make their work better!

    You guys Rock!
