Jim Groom is out of this world with joy dancing to DS106 Radio.<\/p><\/div>\n

Today’s DS106 animated GIF challenge was\u00a0Assignment 1001<\/a>. \u00a0We are asked to\u00a0take the\u00a0template GIF of Jim Groom dancing<\/a>\u00a0and add a background and foreground, to make him dance in an interesting place. \u00a0The title of the assignment “Dancing Jim All Over The World” \u00a0inspired my GIF of dancing on top of the earth, as well as one created here by Kevin Hodgson<\/a> (@dogtrax<\/a>). \u00a0I also had an astronaut floating around at one point. \u00a0But it looked “odd” with him in his space suit and there was Groom out in the open, unprotected, dancing and whooping it up with DS106 Radio. Okay… I admit it… No matter what I did with Jim it was going to look weird, but the astronaut stayed inside the ship during the final GIF merging step. As you can obviously tell there are several image layers involved with the final GIF image. \"Groom_GIFPhotoStrip\"<\/a><\/p>\n
