You need a front image, not to mention images for the other steps missing ones also you're best uploading your video to an embeddable to site, to let people view it easily and so you can embed in to your 'ible. It would be nice to see more detail and such, I've done some big stop motion projects with various software and cameras and there's a hell of a lot more to it than just that.

these are the basics, of yourse you can go into something much more complicated than that but you can easily make a stop motion with these steps.

I did a stopmotion video on youtube

it got removed for copyright infringement because I used the song "paradise city"
by guns and roses in it, so I swapped with a song on youtube's audioswap

I'm highly offended by your credits, dog (curly) and dog (normal)!? Does that mean that curly dogs are some how abnormal? I'm calling PITA and the Curly Dog Alliance!
