Wall-E Sound Files...Enjoy

Got really tired of searching for a good set of sounds, so, in a VERY unscientific way, I extracted all of the sounds from the sound chip on the U-Command Wall-e. If you have audio experience, you might want to re-equalize the sounds. But they're "good enough" for now. Enjoy.Wall-E_Sounds.zip

Soft Plush Toy For Ez-B

This is a very interesting idea and would be very attainable with EZ-B. WHy it took this long to figure out who knows. Stuffed Toys Alive The idea is that without solid joints in a stuffed animal, strings can still allow the toy to appear to be alive. The toy can then keep its hug-able softness. I love it!
