Oh hell yeah! Hold on a moment while I convince my wife to help me take a picture of a shadow donkey!

Is this a Neopet?
Show threadlumpenproletariatMar 8
Yes
Show threadSatansMaggotyCumFartMar 8
Nice ass.
Show threadHadriscusMar 9
more like the dog in scoubidou, impressive either way

Friend said it looks more like a scooby than a donkey
Show threadRhynoplazMar 9
I can see that. But if you could see me make the mouth move, the buck teeth really set it apart from a dog. 😉
Show threadtaiyangMar 8
If you add a second hand (or get really flexible) you can give it eyes that move. It’s 8am for me so no sharing, but my kids like that one. It’s super creepy projected into the ceiling, too.

Not my best work, but…

Show threadwhimsyMar 8
Now I’m curious about your best work
Show threadOwlMar 8

Found it

Show threadiegodMar 8
Well played. 😂
Show threadjystfactMar 8

I can make a bird! I can also make it move with wings flapping and cleaning its tail but lemmy won’t allow me to upload the video!

Show threadTrack_ShovelMar 8
I like the moss effect on the tree ;)
Show threadatopiMar 8

i have seen people use peertube to upload videos and put a link in the commets

an unlisted youtube video could be another option

Cute!

You can convert to gif and embed like a regular image, at least in the clients I have used (Boost on Android and .world on Firefox)

Is it only in Italy that they are called Chinese Shadows?
Show threadkhannieMar 8
I have never heard them called that. Ireland.
Show threadBaroqueWMar 8
They’re called that in French too
Show threadulkeshMar 8
There is no Dana…only Zuul!
Show threadripcordMar 8
I dont get it
Show threadgigastasioMar 8
OP’s hand shadow kinda looks like the little doggy demon guys from Ghostbusters.
Show threadripcordMar 9
Ah, a Terror Dog.
Show threadulkeshMar 9
That’s because I’m old and I’m guessing you’re not :D But gigastasio has the answer.
Show threadripcordMar 9
I just didn’t get if there was a connection other than this was a black dog
Show threadNo1Mar 8

These are all great!

Though obviously not mine, I just wanted to share this:

I don’t have one, but if I did it would be this

You don’t have hands or you don’t have a shadow?
Show threadKen OhMar 9
Got both but not a third hand to take the photo.
Show threadthermal_shockMar 9
Be creative

for those who don’t want to visit reddit, archive.org, or imgur (and for posterity sake)

classic thread. i think about it a lot.
Show threadoce 🐆Mar 9
Single hand submissions are welcome, like mine.
Show threadHadriscusMar 9
maybe they don’t have a best. All their hand shadows are equal. Living under egalitarihand manarchist utopia
