| 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. |

Look guys i still like you, even after what you all did to me! Ok? Just stop being like that with me and lets be friends! If we will be friends, i will send to you any animation you want and any STICKFIGURES you want. I used some of the stks from the original creators to make the other characters from the Media! Example: i used the red ranger made by pshyco to make the other Male rangers. But this thing i did for real!
you realize you started this right…?
Yes but i am tired of being trated like this
Well, you shouldn’t have done this in the first place, but I forgive you.
Alright.I forgive you.I can’t hold something over your head for this long.
And i recommend you to download the drawing cartoons 2 app. Its just like STICK NODES, but you can draw your own stickfigure. And you can download more stickfigures for this app from vk.com animating1touch
cool
Is on thin ice.
Decides to promote another animation app.
You like to live dangerously, don’t you?
*facepalm* I WAS JUST RECOMMENDING AN STUPID ANIMATUON APP! THATS ALL I JUST DID NOTHING MORE!!!!!!!!!
Teo- cant take a simple joke
It was a joke, let’s relax a little. Stop reacting like that every time someone says something to you.
He’s probably too young to understand these kind of jokes.
However, he shouldn’t advertise for the other animations apps.
I highly recommend Flash.
I have flash.
is gud
oh no
*you are on thin ice
*you decide to promote another animation app
Wøt?..
W0T?
YEW WØT MAIT?! YEW WUNNA FŒCKIN GAOW?!! LESS GAOW MAIT! I TALE YA AEN RAIGHT ‘EAH!!

I think parapsychology is a better name.
