| 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. |

Mine too thats why i made him
Ralph what are you favourite super heroes?
Hey Ralph what are you favourite super heroes?
:O He said it twice, that’s definitely going to make Ralph reply (not really)…don’t spam kids, drugs are bad.
Lol what are you talking about i spamed double accidentally
I didn’t say you spammed, and you can’t accidentally comment the exact same thing twice.
Well, most likely he posted the comment but either it didn’t go through or it didn’t look like it went through, so he commented again.
Also, I’ve never read super hero comic books or watched many super hero movies outside of maybe the first Spider Man, Iron Man, and the Batman films. So I only have a basic understanding of the whole situation, lol.
Ok i will send a new pack
Today, I’ve learned something.

DmLan can be broken into the numbers corresponding to the distance of each letter from the beginning of the alphabet, so.
Add them up and 4 + 13 + 12 + 1 + 14 = 44.
Then, 44 is a Størmer number.
The first few Størmer numbers are 1, 2, 4, and 5…
Notice the lack of “3”.
DmLan = 3 = Illuminati.
Oh pleasevsjsjzbsbsjbdbdjv *ragequits*
I like my logic.
This screenshot reminds me of Felix the Cat.
That old old old show about a cat named Felix who was basically the male Cat named Felix version of Dora.
That Cat has everything in his Bag of Tricks.
I found it on Netflix a long time ago and watched it WHHGHYGYYG
DmLan is Felix the Cat, that’s why.
I’m also cat food, look
So I am a cat and I’m also cat food? My mind is blown.
No that makes sense to me.
Ok so that would mean I am a human, but I’m also a cat that eat itself?
Oh god
Hope you guys will like my PACKS and use the stickfigures from the PACKS in some animations on youtube
Ok now i will SUBMIT another pack
Ok now I drink coffee while playing Angry birds.
8)
Coffee is good right?
*Hyper*
I had surgery yesterday. I was told that while I was still droozy from the anesthesia I got scared of a water tower.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡ °)
Cool, I had a surgery a little over a month ago, high five.
Why is there a water tower in a hospital?
Well you guys desrve it beacuse you were bad with me
Well, I was REALLY messed up from that so they told my guardians to drive around back, they helped me to the car and we passed a water tower. Lel.
Coffee is good.
Please don’t say that to my teachers but…
I take a bottle with coffee in it and I drink it when I’m in class.
And if they see me, I say it’s water since the bottle is made of metal, so they can’t see what’s inside.
Derpi derp
If they’re ever suspicious, trust me, they’re not thinking it’s “coffee” in there…
I don’t know, I’m still going to drink coffee in class.
Oh ok i sended the pack and dmlan if you finished the stickfigures and posted a picture of them on noelshack or imgur PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAASE SHOW ME AN PICTURE LINK OF THEM I WANNA SEE HOW THEY LOOK!!!!!! STOP AVOIDING THE COMMENT ABOUT THE LINK OF THE STICKFIGURES AND SHOW ME A PICTURE OR A DOWNLOAD LINK OF THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please, shut up.
Nobody, can I hug you for saving me?
You can beat me up next.
Can I do it?
No.
Someone needs to IPBan u from this website dude, please shut up u 8 yr old.
You don’t have to be all mad at him for it.. I mean I know, it is annoying but he probably is young, and probably is maybe, impatient, so he may not really know how to react when put in a situation like, let’s say, pranks, or waiting a long time. I’m not taking sides here, but still.
Or he might be a 14 yr old impatient boy who doesnt know how to do certain things for himself, either way, hes spamming the comments wayyyy too much and hes literally getting commentary medals for it.
Still.. You don’t need to be all mad and angry about it, what you said could very well be true, but you don’t have to talk about getting him IP banned, but even if he was 14, he could possibly still not understand that the things DmLan is doing (In this case studying, life etc.) Is very important, keeping him from being able to finish the stickfigure packs. But we don’t know.
Yeah, basicaly what you said, I’m trying my best to make people happy, but teodor… that guy is kinda impatient. I think he’ll understand when he’ll be 16 years old. I really enjoy making stickfigures, I’m doing my best even if these days my stickfigures are rushed, I still try, even though it’s hard with all the stuff I need to do.
I just wish teodor could understand me, I wish I was not “WAISITING” his time but what can you do about it, some people just don’t get it and we can’t do anything about it.
DmLan, you just wasted so much time typing that out you could have been making stickfigures.
Lol no, it took me about 2-3 minutes.
This is all truth.
