As an introduction to Animation Mentor, they have given us a Scavenger hunt!!! We have been given 12 easy clues and 12 hard clues and we need to find the answers to these clues within the site and submit them using the support ticket tool on the site.
Its a great idea to get a better understanding of the website and if I answer the 12 easy questions correctly, I will be placed in a draw for a super cool AM prize!
But if I correctly answer all the clues I will be placed in a second draw for another prize! When the closing date has passed I will post my answers on this post :)
Although, I only have till the end of week 11, specifically Sunday at 12:00pm Pacific Time.
