| Favorite animated show |
Insert Jojo reference here. Also the Dragon Ball series for sure because that's what started it all. My Hero Academia, Attack on Titan, Dr. Stone too. Non-anime (kinda) however, the Avatar series (ATLA and Korra) too. |
| Favorite non-animated show |
Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, Game of Thrones. House gets an honorable mention. |
| Favorite movie |
Not much of a movie person, idk. I did force myself to watch the Marvel movies and they weren't bad to be honest so, yeah, Endgame I guess. |
| Favorite video game |
I don't play much of anything so in terms of nostalgia there's Tomba 1 and 2, Spyro, Ratchet and Clank, Jak and Daxter among others. The original Genesis Sonic games are up there too. |
| Favorite food |
Orange chicken but, like, not the authentic kind. More like the sugar-chicken version where it just rots your teeth away as you eat it. |
| Ralph started making Stick Nodes one day because he was bored. He grew up practically addicted to a stickfigure-animation program called Pivot which sparked his interest in both animation and game development.
Eventually he got into Flash animation and Flash game development. He released quite a few games into the Flash gaming community, check out his portfolio for links.
Once mobile devices started taking over, he moved over to attempt Android games. After a few failed attempts, he released Plunder Peril - a quick 2-3 week project that was meant as Android-development practice.
After Plunder Peril, Ralph began work on Stick Nodes and in August 2014, Stick Nodes was released on Android with the iOS version following in November. Stick Nodes is built in Java with the LibGDX framework and uses RoboVM to port to iOS.
Fast forward to March 2020 when he was revising this page and he honestly can't believe Stick Nodes is still going so strong. Onward to world domination...
Fast forward again to August 2023 and really, I haven't been cancelled yet? |

| Sean is the site administrator and creator of the stickfigure submission system as well as a majority of the DBZ stickfigures. He also has a funny accent.
At around age 12 he discovered Pivot, ended up on Droidz.org looking for stickfigures to use in his animations, got fairly good after about 2 years.
He decided to make a website to host his animations on after having been on the forums for a long time. That's what got him into webdesign since the first iteration of his website was a terrible looking flash-based thing that at the time he thought was the best thing out.
After a while he realized how stupid it looked and behaved. So he looked into HTML and CSS, got it looking slightly better but it wasn't until he found WordPress that it started looking decent.
After that he went off the grid for a bit, got his Cert IV in IT and Webdesign, cemented his understanding of the internet protocols.
Lately he's been helping out around the Stick Nodes community and has been managing Animation Alpha. He's also been looking into game development and has begun a project that he hopes to finish one day soon, he can't really reveal anything about it but it's for mobile devices and will be a 2D sidescroller. |

I WILL SHUT UP IF DMLAN WILL SHOW ME THE PICTURE LINK OF THE STICKFIGURES!!!!!
You probably won’t.
Lol you can wait, it’s going to be long since I need to study (not an excuse, it’s serious)
Also, you drunk christmas groot thief.
You stole my old avatar, coloured it in blue and added bat wings.
You monster.
Drunk Christmas Groot is love, Drunk Christmas Groot is life.
Completely true.
İ miss your old drunk avatar 🙁 .
I’m still drunk from inside.
And the “Random Site News” topic has my christmas groot avatar in it.
Yeah I’d study if I were you, since we all know you don’t pay attention in school since you’re always here commenting.
DAMN! YOU GUYS NOW KNOW MY SECRET
AAAAARRRHHHHH
OH YEAH I DO WANT!!!!!
wut
Probably his English died like my English.
It’s a disease?…scary.
Sp00keyyyy
Stay away from Berke
Spooky Berke.
Someone make that a stickfigure.
I’m on it.
Hmmm.. I recently found in my dropbox an old stickfigure, it’s unfinished and I don’t know if I should continue it. Help me guys.
I made it a few days after my modern Sonic stickfigure (1 year ago), just like Sonic, it has posable eyes and eyelids. Should I finish it?

thats vector
It is. So, what do you think?
So much green.
But looks cool.
That’s a crocodile, duh!
I don’t even care, as far as I’m concerned, Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles. Those are the three protagonists from Sonic games. All the other ones are made up and don’t count.
Shadow can stay because he’s the Vegeta of the group but that’s it.
… h-ho-how ’bout t-the Baby-lon R-r-rogues, these g-guys fr-from Sonic Ri-
Ralph : NO, PLEASE NO. NO. NOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
NO.
I am sorry about what happened!
I will SUBMIT another pack again
I SAID I AM SORRY! I MADE SOME COOL STICKFIGURES FOR YOU BUT IF YOU GUYS ARE BAD WITH ME THEN I WILL TELL RALPH TO MAKE THESE PACKS ONLY FOR THE OTHERS AND NOT ANNONYMOUS OR DMLAN OR ANY OF YOU
What the ?
No seriously, you can’t do that.
And even if he does it, I can change my adress anytime so I can download it.
True.
So true, isn’t it?
Most true thing on the internet.
It’s so true that it’s so true that it’s true.
More true.
What if it’s false after all that^
Teodor, you’re a cool guy and I appreciate your activity with the app and on the site.
But if you just calm down WITH ALL OF THE CAPS and the nagging of other users to make you stuff, then they’ll probably stop being so negative towards you. Just chill a little bit and we’ll all be good.
Ok nevermind please forgive me guys!
That’s what you said the last (3) times.
Ok i will be a good guy.
