Available since June 2012 in December 2012 is a Disney Afternoon mystery pin set, sold at Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort! Among them is one really cool TaleSpin pin's! I could only find this picture :

To check the whole "Disney Afternoon mystery pin's set", see this :

I'm guessing that, even though it's been released recently, this is a very rare pin's!

It's really nice to see that Disney has done more for the Disney Afternoon these past 2 years, than they did for the last 15 years! Let's hope this [...]

I know I didn't post all that long ago, but I was asked to make a feature, so here we go!

Fanart:

I don't normally post things that have to deal with fan characters, but I was asked by AlphawolfJenna if I would be willing to feature a icon she made of JerseyCaptain's Togo, so here we go! Take a look at this amazing piece of work!

I had written up a LONG news about the stuff going on, but the browser just blurped and I lost all of it. So unfortunately, here's a shortened version of what I wrote.

Ok, so if you check out the latest release dates, courtesy of Box Office Mojo, you'll see there are new entries. How to Train Your Dragon 3 comes out on June 17, 2016. Kung Fu Panda 3 comes out March 18, 2016. The Penguins of Madagascar - a brand-new film based off the TV show -  comes out March 27, 2015. Three brand-new animated films have just been announced: Trolls (working title, June 5, 2015), Mumbai Musical [...]

I just found this nice animation cel, selling on Ebay. Worth a look!

http://www.ebay.com/itm/disney-animation-cel-Talespin-/300769919506#ht_500wt_1180

They refer to it as a cell, though I can't remember seeing this picture in any episode. It looks more like the pictures in some of the graphical novels that were released when the show was still on the air.

Hello all! I really don't have anything to say, so let's just dive right in!

It may not be the newest drawing on the block, but hey! That doesn't matter! This drawing, by Alkila, is of Steele and the dog from the other team racing. Click here to take a look!

Due to the general lack of news in the actual animation world, I decided (upon the proposal of someone awesome, you know who you are) to write up a fan news for ALL of Animation Source. The French do this all the time: take all the Sources and show off the best parts of them, so here we go with the very first English edition!

First off, Balto Source. Our artist for this Source is Kema. Let's take a peak at what she has to offer us... Oh, how unfortunate. It seems as if one of her characters is crying in this art piece entitled: "Le Sniffle". 

But her character should [...]

Rio 2 will be coming to theaters Spring 2014, just in time for the soccer World Cup held in Rio de Janeiro. As we're currently lacking much updates on it, this is a news to ask for your opinions on it. What do YOU think the movie will be about? Are you looking forward to it? Anything you hope is different - or the same - as the first film?

What little info we have on Rio 2 can be found here.

Look what I've just found!!!

That's quite some funny pictures, something I'm surprised nobody did before! Pretty well done, uh??

But actually, there's another thing that makes it very interesting!

This comes from an artist Braden D.Lamb, who makes illustrations for comics. Obviously, these are very professional looking covers!

He says that it was "Originally a commission from my editor", and when we click on the link he provides, we're redirected to a page owned by [...]

To help promote its upcoming animated feature film, Disney has released an online flash version of "Fix-it Felix", the game centered around its 52nd animated feature "Wreck-It Ralph". The film will be released in theaters on November 2 this year, and centers around a video-game "Bad Guy" named Ralph who feels his job is underappreciated. The film also cameos video game characters from other franchises such as Mario and Sonic.

To play the game, click the picture below!

The full-length trailer, which debuted in front of Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted, can be seen [...]

Yes, it's a little late to announce this, but better late than never, right? "Dragons: Riders of Berk", the official TV series for How to Train Your Dragon, has begun airing on Cartoon Network!

CLICK THE BANNER BELOW TO VIEW THE NEW SECTION

The series will eventually get its own section on the website, but for now we're going to work on a subsection under the original How to Train Your Dragon tab. But keep checking back; eventually we'll have the section up and running!

You can now enjoy the shoutbox with five new texture backgrounds to choose from! I will be adding more, and I will defiantly be adding ones of the Balto characters!

Enjoy!

It was close guys.

The vote ended up being 12 people for this one - which was the winning vote!
Banner #4!

Although ... the second place banner had 11 votes. That complicates things a little.
Banner #2!

SO!
I'm going to be annoying and ask for another vote from you guys.
Please vote again by posting a comment but ONLY pick Banner#4 or Banner #2!
And only one of them.

This will end on August 23rd, so get your vote in before then.

The winning one from this vote will be placed up top.
This will give me some time to redo the layout itself a tad too, but I have to [...]

Here's another script version for the same episode, "Gruel & Unusual Punishment".

Have fun checking the differences with the final episode!

Well, not much to say about this one. Tangled Source is now open! All the content was handled by Nakou, and translated by me - but trust me, she deserves far more credit than me, so all the thanks go to her!

Fellow TLK Sourcers, today is a very exciting day!

If you look to your left, you should see that there is now a new section amongst the site: The Timon & Pumbaa section!

A huge thanks to Rainbowkat who created the graphic for the section and made this opening possible! Also a huge thanks for Skulblaka_Shur'tugal, who did the information for the section! After about a year since this section was first started, it's fantastic to see that we finally have it up now. (: Do check the section out!

Hello my fellow AS'ers and strangers. We have a new shiny, and crisp layout and banner!

All credit goes to Kelsey The Zombie for the wonderful layout and MightyBalto1925 for the lovely Banner. Give them praise! These ladies worked hard and quick on making this new look. So with that, I hope you all enjoy the new style and the site.

A new banner has shown up on the site showing off the new TV Series Dragons: Riders of Berk. It's basically showing off untrained dragons in the world still like Whispering Death. Timber Jack. Basically any dragon that wasn't show in the movie but was in the book is in this series. All original characters are returning but for the cast it may not be the original cast. It's possible that some will be on here. Check it out this fall; maybe check the trailer at Cartoon Network as this is where this is being posted.

I don't have much to say, but this is Kay's layout, it will be up for now. I also re-made the banner (Kay asked me to), so enjoy!

Hello again! It's Imagine!

After being reminded by a nice member here, I got around to making official characters from 102 Dalmatians! The other builders and I pretty much agreed to making these characters after the successful poll.

Right now, the only characters that have been created are Oddball, Little Dipper, and Domino. If you want MORE 102 characters to be added, send me a PM with a request! :)

Ok, I guess that's it. I hope you guys enjoy making fan art with the new characters!! (You're welcome by the way ;) )

EDIT: Also of note is a follow-up interview with Balto sequels director Phil Weinstein. You can read it here.

Episode 3 of Sourcecast 2.0 has been released, and features the regular hosts (Skulblaka_Shur'tugal, Ancient Fairy Dragon, and Juuchan17) along with our guest co-host SpaceTimeGuardian - Skul's very own wife!

This episode, "Brave", focuses on numerous subjects, including Brave, fathers in animated films, and why Ancient STILL needs to become a brony!

As of today, Hot Topic is selling a TaleSpin tee-shirt!

"Okay, so. Yesterday I got a reply from steet after asking again about whether or not he could access the graphics bases for the sidebar of the site so I can add the graphic to complete the Timon & Pumbaa section.

I'm sorry for the downtimes occuring lately, me and my co-host are still looking for what is causing them.

No change in the site code has been made lately so it's probably due to some upgrades on the server.

Until it's all fixed, please be patient!

Sorry there hasn't been much updates for this Source, but I am pleased to announce a new partnership with fellow HTTYD fansite, Torch and Ingrid's How to Train Your Dragon Fan site!

Current links to other fansites can be found here. If you have a suggestion, PM either me or Cero.

You all remember the Animation Source Awards, don't you? I'm not talking about the Choice Awards, which honor the best in film. I'm talking about the ASAs, which honor you, the members of Animation Source. Well, this year's ASAs have officially begun: the 2012 Animation Source Awards!

The rules for this year are much like the last few years. You cannot vote for yourself. You can only nominate one person per award, but as many awards as you like. No nominating banned members. You cannot use multiple accounts to vote for a person.

Otherwise, the rules are pretty lax. I'm the judge [...]

Hello everyone, I'm Imagine, and this is my first fan news. *cue confetti* Yay!! :)

Anyway, I have been searching on youtube and I happened to stumble upon a documentary about the making of 101 Dalmatians, and it was really interesing how they put this movie together using very unique styles and techniques. It was so interesting that I wanted to share it with you so you can be amazed by what the animators have accomplished for this wonderful film. So without further ado, here are the links to all four parts of the Documentary! Watch and be astounded.

Hey guys!

I'm afraid I'm far too busy to read any fics and the other sections appeared to be full of tumbleweed, sorry about that!

Smoking Loon has a really nicely laid out profile and he sounds like quite an interesting character.
I also really like his design.

Hey guys!
You might have noticed there's a new section on the left named "Merchandise" - that's right, we're currently in the process of making new Spirit merchandise pages!

You're going to have to bear with us for a short while whilst we write them but they should be coming along nicely!
If you have your own photographs of this merchandise (DVDs and CD included) I'd be much obliged if you'd consider taking a good quality photo of them (seperately) for us to use on these pages!
Just PM the images to me or blazetail.  C:
You would of course be credited for your photos on the [...]

It wasn't possible before, but now the 101 Dalmatians official characters have their character names and descriptions in English! Credit goes to Dr. Faye Gx, who translated from the French, on every single bio!

Be sure to check out the newly updated characters, and don't forget to vote in the poll for NEW characters! (Link to characters page here; link to poll here.)

Dr. Faye Gx is wanting to make some new official characters for 101 Dalmatians Source, but there's a catch: the characters are from the book 102 Dalmatians, an adaptation of the movie. The book IS in the same style of animation as the animated films, but the characters are from the live-action movies.

Thus, I have created a poll to see what the majority of the members think about adding these characters. You can see it here.

Get to voting! The majority determines the case!

Hello, after some thought and asking another site builder what they think I have decided to do a weekly “pick” sort of thing this will highlight what IV liked this week

It will include fanart, fanfic. Images and characters and I may feature a contest i’m not too sure yet I will also post any spirit source related updates

Do not ask for your image/fanfic/character to be in this!!

Hello, Animation Source! I am here to welcome the newest Source: 101 Dalmatians Source!

There have been so many people who have worked on this over the years! Pilot and Skip were among the first to work on it, with contributions from Grey wolf. In the end, MightyBalto1925 worked on the graphics, and Imagine and myself (Skulblaka_Shur'tugal) worked on the infos.

Come over and enjoy yourselves!

Some of you may be aware of the fact that a lot of us older members are upset over the fact that people are here for all the wrong reasons. This news is what this news will be focusing on.

Yes, this fan site is out of control, and needs to be fixed. At this rate Animation Source has gone above and beyond the words "fan site". So I would like you to ask yourself, am I truly a fan? Think hard, and think seriously. Because if you are a truly a fan of whatever site you may spend your time on, then you wouldn't be using this site as a [...]

Animation Source--first opened as Balto Source, as many of you remember--first became a website in France on May 8, 2004. As today is May 8, 2012, it means that today marks the 8 Year Anniversary of Animation Source! (The English side opened in September, but what the hay.)

^Birthday picture by Hecate^

It's hard to believe it's been 8 years. Yes, it's had its ups and downs, but look at how much progress it has made: from a yellow hard-on-the-eyes single website with less than a hundred members, to a total of 15 Sources (with more on the way!) devoted to quality animated [...]

I just thought id let spirit source know I am now a site builder for the info side of things, I do have some idea that could improve spirit source, one i am sure most of you have seen is adding the cougar, he or she is now an official character

Along with the cougar I have plans for the twins, and the Indian horses to have pages up soon, also the translation of the characters back into English with more bio in more detail

But one thing I question, should we have strider as an official character? Iv seen this over and over but i am not sure so leave a comment below letting [...]

On top of this, the official website, hosted by Conay, has been re-designed and will be hosting the episodes internally now. (Don't worry, they're still available to download from iTunes.)
