1988 Apple Pencil Test

Stumbled on this a way back:

Beyond the fact that this is just cool, and an impressive display of 1988 computer power, there's some cool people involved.

Andrew Stanton (Finding Nemo, Wall-E) is listed as both "Storyteller" and "Illustrator." John Lasseter (Toy Story, Cars) is credited as "Coach."

And there's a thanks at the end to "Chronical Features" for usage of a Gary Larson cartoon on the coffee cup:

It's hard to tell which cartoon it is, but that's a nice touch.

What a nice little piece of cartoony history!

Another new feature of the new Andertoons.com, is the ability for the user to sort their search results by recency, views, or user ratings.

You can see it on any search results page in the upper left:

Sorted Cartoons 1 Andertoons New-2

When sorting by most recent, you'll see the cartoons added to the site most recently first:

Sorted Cartoons 2 Andertoons New

When sorting by most viewed, you'll see the cartoons users have clicked on most first:

Sorted Cartoons 3 Andertoons New

And, when sorting by highest rating, you'll see cartoons users voted the best first:

Sorted Cartoons 4 Andertoons New

It's a small addition, but I think it will encourage browsing, and show you some cartoons that might have been buried deeper in the old website.

Enjoy!

My only question is, what took so long!?
