We have been busy behind the scenes over the summer, and are pleased to announce that the new Skwigly Animation Chat Room will be launched on Monday 1st September, at 7pm! That’s right – after listening to all of your feedback we have decided to switch #chattytuesdays (which took place at 9pm) to #AnimationChat on Mondays, at the more convenient time of 7pm.

If you are a Skwigly regular and were wondering what was happening to #skwiglyselfpromotions – this will now take place every Tuesday!

So what’s new…

The new chat room isn’t just a shiny new design –  we have introduced a number of new features to make it more useful for animators, film-makers and other animation fans:

  • User avatars – upload your own profile photo or artwork for instant recognition
  • Upload images into the chat window – you can now add images into the conversation to show your work off
  • Embed YouTube videos, showreels and films into the chat window –  share you work with the whole room, or privately
  • Full user profiles – you’ll be able to add links to your website, social media pages, embed a showreel, image gallery and other information. You will be able to find out more about the people you are talking to!
  • Scrolling news & articles to keep you updated with what’s happening while you chat
  • Faster loading times
  • And did we mention the shiny new design?
