That makes the third site in (almost) one week!! Yes, that's madness, I admit. At the same time, they were ready, so I didn't want to make any of you waiting...

I already know that Spirit Source and All Dogs Go To Heaven Source will be the two most popular sites here after Balto Source. Which is logical, these sites are made for attracting the current visitors while the others are there for "enlarging" the members base.

* UPDATED * See below!

The Princess And The Frog is now available widely (in the US!) and here's its first week end box office :

$24,208,916

My analysis? Disappointing. VERY disappointing.

This is below the expectations, below any 3D animated film being released over the past years. UP made 3 times that, other lesser efforts such as Cloudy With a Chance of Meatball or Disney's A Christmas Carol made much better.
Enchanted, a film with similar aspects but limited target, made 35M$. Heck, even Curious George, a 2D animated film that no one talked about when it was released in 2006 and [...]

In case you didn't already know...

The Princess & The Frog is opening today in theaters, in the USA!

So if you live there, well...what are you waiting in front of your computer??? Get out and see it! Now! It's an order!  

More seriously : for now the film has grossed $2,410,820 in only two theaters. (pre-release) which is an impressive amount (but was expected!) We should receive the "real" figures in a few days with its first wide-release week end.

Will it make an honest effort (10-20 M$) or become the highest-grossing 2D animated film of all time? (> 50 M$) We'll [...]

They're on fire! Yes, the Source websites are multiplying at light speed.

Today, I present you with a site dedicated to this film that, I'm pretty sure, everyone here already knows : All Dogs Go To Heaven, including information on the sequel, the series and the Christmas Carol.

This site has been one of the most requested during the lifetime of Balto Source, so I hope you'll be satisfied!

EDIT : Sorry about that, I'm very impolite. You can thank Silver Deni (graphics) and Mohammad891 (content/info) for all their work on the site!

Yes, there is a new Source site! Maybe not the one you expected (don't worry, the english version of Spirit Source is still on its way)
Nonetheless, this is an important one.

http://www.animationsource.org/princess_frog/en/

Why is Princess & The Frog important?

The main reason is simple : this upcoming film is Disney's comeback to traditional animation!

Let's remember : in 2003, Disney closed down their 2D animation department, deciding to stop making more "line drawn" animated films like their past glories from the 90's : The Lion King, Aladdin, Beauty & the Beast... That [...]

I have performed a lot of changes on the sites recently, in order to solve some trouble with webranking.

Especially, the forums URL have changed : but don't worry, if you bookmarked some pages, you will be redirected to the right page.

I have done some testing, but if you see experience some bugs, please report them!

Also, I have added some neat "Share" buttons on most site pages, so that you can now easily share your creations, the interesting articles you find, etc...on Facebook, Twitter and others!

What's new this week? 

A drawing by Lil Cheetah, it has a rare pose of Simba, and it's wonderfully drawn too. It's titled

 is a great image, featuring Simba, Kiara, and Zira, it's a good image, it seems to be like a fan cover.

The new project, The Lion King 4, it needs people to design, animate, voice, and script writers, lend a hand if you can!

I have done a little change on the way news are displayed.

In particular, the Animation Source news will appear on all the sites, so that everyone knows when I make changes that affect all the sites.

Also, only a part of the news will be displayed on the front page, in order to show more than a single news. The aim is to write news more often, so that you'll get updates more regularly! (instead of one big news every month or so, like I used to do)

Here are some new selected TLK work of the week!

 by Aikachi! It’s a romantic art featuring Simba and Nala.

 By greywolf, It’s about Mufasa’s death, and how it effects the Kingdom of the Pridelands.

Takaobserver has made a well written article on Kopa’s birth, if you want to learn some more on this “Kopa” you should go look at it. Click here.

These are very busy days for Lion King Source, as the brand new moderators are slowly being chosen. Currently the sections of fan art, fan images, fan characters and shout box are moderated by dedicated Lion King Source mods! It will take some more time to choose the mods for the other sections, but we are working on it and it's a matter of days. I'd like to thank all the members to applied here on this site: even if you didn't get chosen this time, you will be contacted in future when we need more staff. ;)

You can check the staff page to see who are the new mods. As you can notice, the [...]

As you may have noticed, the staff page on Lion King Source is now empty, and all the moderators have been removed. This is because we think that this site now deserves a dedicated staff, which won't be the same of Balto Source anymore. For this reason we are "recruiting" Lion King fans to become moderators, and if you want to be part of the team, now it's your chance! All of you can join, as long as you are not a moderator on Balto Source and you are a Lion King fan.

So, if you think you would be a good moderator, please email me at the following address: Then we will choose the best [...]

That's it, I have finally made the big update I planned since a few months.

Although you may not see a big difference (I have kept the same layouts), the sites run on a new "engine".
This update was necessary in order to prepare for new things coming up, especially new sites.

Part of that is a URL change : I suggest to update your bookmarks!

New Balto Source URL = http://www.animationsource.org/balto/en/

New Lion King Source URL = http://www.animationsource.org/lion_king/en/

If you added some site pages into your browser bookmarks, then you'll need to search them and bookmark them [...]
