I have been asked by many people how I made the outlined stickfigure in my Centered Origin animation. The answer is quite simple, but since I get the question so often, I therefore post this video tutorial on how to make it.

Step by step text walkthrough:
1. Select the figure, you want outlined and click Edit
2. Make all segments 10 pixels thicker and add it to the animation
3. Make the original figure white and put it on top of the new one by clicking Front
Make sure the joints are aligned, so that the top one completely covers the bottom one, cause if else the outline will appear uneven.

atok...that was kind of a bad advice, cause u can just change the size of the stick to save a lot of time.

You are badly mistaken, my friend, since that would not only make the stick thicker, but also make the segments longer, resulting in a poor parody of an outline.

The black outline would appear uneven, and it would generally look ugly.

I tried increasing the thickness 10 times like you said but it didn't really work out cos'the outline was too thin to see so to some people try it 15 TIMES. THANKS, ANYWAY! I'll try this in one of my animations once I fix my stupid movie maker

@XxwafflewagonxX Thats because they were both shit.

@XxwafflewagonxX That's because PMDX animates for comedy, if he made "serious" stuff it would be ridiculous. But Atok would still be better, because well Atok is AWESOME :3.
