I began uploading animations onto my page of Tumblr or links to my youtube videos but they weren't very successful at gaining followers (or attention).

So I converted a segment of animation I was working on into a GIF format and uploaded it, to test the water. A few days later I woke up to my phone going mad and some how the little segment of animation I converted into a GIF managed to receive over 2000notes in a few hours. This upload managed to gather the sudden surge in followers in and interest for my blog too! I was seriously impressed, I was all like '' wow '' and ''wowie ''. Although I'm only just beginning to develop a good online presence, considering I've only been engaging with these websites really since February I'm still pretty proud of myself. However I still need to work on my blog layouts, as I'm still not happy with their visual aesthetic;
