Why do the rovers always have to be "cute"? MSL is a definite bad boy rover if there ever was one.

Some time ago elkgrovedan, myself and others produced a series of artworks of MSL as if they were done by famous artists like vanGogh, DaVinci and others.
You can see some of those over on my Twitter feed and MSL picked them up for their Facebook page. Here's another one inspired over the weekend.

OK, All Glory wasn't quite what I imagined so I made my own version. It lacks sound though. Can anybody put some hypnotoad sound on this? Running at least a minute? In a format I can upload to Youtube? Fame and glory will be yours forever. I might have put in too many tween frames -- I'm wondering if I should throw out every other frame. The second version has only half as many frames.

Time to inject a little misery into this funny thread...
Let's hope this doesn't happen... there's still time to check! Phil
