Looking through my old cover disks I found on Amiga Format Cover Disk 10 a really nice "Tick" mouse pointer animation - (there is also an American flag which is quite good as well) funny thing is I can get it to work on my A500 but when trying to run it on my A1200 it wont work - maybe it is not compatible with Workbench 3... anyway I will upload it to the zone and anyone interested can take a look...

RCK needs to get rid of the boing ball and replace it with a blue tick

Seconded!

Looks like its the tick ftw!!!

Technically the boing ball pre dates the tick as the Amiga logo. But this was changed when the Commodore deal became concrete.

Check out this early A1010 prototype: http://www.amigahistory.co.uk/rjmicaldrive.jpg


Thank god!! The boing ball is ugly.

Something to ponder: is it really a tick? or is it the path of the ball bouncing? ;)

It's the shape of a magic.

Blue tick for the BEST!

The Amiga Tick or real choice of name in my neck of the woods we call the tick " Amiga Shark " ;

Amiga Shark Wins for ME ;-)

Never heard that the Amiga "V" was called "Tick".... but if that's so, then "V" it is... don't like the boing ball.... it isn't the ol' Amiga.

T_hairy_bootson 17 March 2007 18:48

its definately not a V, it's actually called the Amiga Check Mark to be precise.

Ironclaw 17 March 2007 18:56

Yeah, I know it's not a V, but can't type that check letter.

Jope 17 March 2007 19:16

It's the Tick for me, since it's what they marketed it with.. However the Los Gatos team wanted the Boing, as you may know.

tiiickkkk!!

boing ball = tooooo simple! ... its just a sphere... currently its ideal for the Commodore amiga brand though- as they KEEP GOING ROUND IN CIRCLES!

The friendly premature sawtooth graph starts it's eternal journey from the demise of lord commodore whilst rebounding from the brief depression representing thy spirit and heart felt love of intelligent people BEHOLD... THE TICK

You should have made this public so we could throw rocks at the boing ball fanboys!

SilentBob 18 March 2007 20:55

I always liked the tick better. But a boing ball is fine too.

X-ray 18 March 2007 21:28

Tick

Retroplay 18 March 2007 21:31

Definately the tick :)

Carlos Ace 19 March 2007 00:55

Always the original: The Amiga Tick

Avanze 19 March 2007 05:01

Yeah, Tick.
