    Given a week I could code something potentially useful,
    If you can tell me what you want it to do,
    I may be able to help;
    Assuming it's in my power to code.

    @David

    You sure?
    I enjoy coding and challenges,
    I've just run out of ideas at this point.

    If possible, no mean to stress you, but could you make 2 animated things that are star wars (Clone troopers and battle droids) that walk around the screen like desktop ponys and perform shooting and what not?

    I don't thing I have to do anything for that.
    You can use Desktop Ponies to make custom ponies.
    Scripting them is fairly easy.
    There a built in function for it.
    EDIT: It's under 'PONY EDITOR'.

    So what you just said can be done via repurposing Desktop Ponies.

    I am not that smart... scripting and what not. But can you repurpose them?

    Eeyup.
    Assuming you give me animated gifs,
    I could do the scripting for you.

    Though do you want them to shoot each other,
    Or just shoot randomly, or actually fight?

    EDIT: Oh, and don't say you're not smart.
    You're terribly smart,
    Just outside of your area of expertise.

    i will get some animated gifs for you from a gif site, i will link to you, but i would like them to shoot each other and program it so they run around and when there hit they disappear off screen.

    Sorry.
