You can put me down as a part time tween animator, assuming it's in Flash?

I like the premise but that first scene needs more excitement and punchiness if it's going to intrigue and engage with kids, especially so it won't feel too much like hard work to keep up.

I can't expand on that right now, will add suggestions later.  Great project idea!
