Make Your Own Microsoft Agent

Jo Doell and her family recently moved to Valrice from New Jersey. Their Company, 101 Doellmations, produce Microsoft Agents for fun and clients.
To the right meet: Tiggie, Phakesphere, Wrabbit, and Gribbit. You may contact them at: jdoell@tampabay.rr.com.

If you want to try to make your own MS Agent Microsoft has the directions and program free on their web site. Jo spends about 400 hours doing it the hard way with PhotoShop. Each agent annimation is three to eight drawings packaged together with sound effects and timimg. An agent has about 65 minimum annimations
