Surely I'm not the only one who enjoys his works a lot? For those of you who are unsure of who I'm talking about, he's the man behind the famous series of Flash cartoons Salad Fingers, Burnt Face Man and Spoilsbury Toast Boy, among many more. He is famous for making utterly inexplicable cartoons, sometimes funny, sometimes creepy, often both and always weird. He uses a variety of styles with some of his works being somewhat traditional animation and others using picture cutouts; he also dabbles with stop-motion from time to time. He's also working a feature-length film but that seems to be going slowly as it is not his priority. And if you're not too much into disturbing stuff, I suggest looking up his Burnt Face Man series, probably his most straightforward work (not that it's saying much) as it is a parody of superhero shows, and the content is no more than what you'd find in something like the Simpsons or Family Guy. Here's his YouTube account, where you can find most of his works (not counting his commissions such as numerous music videos). Warning for language and gore in some of the videos: www.youtube.com/user/Doki66/videosHe also has a website where you can find even more videos but I'd rather not link to it as it contains stuff that probably goes against these forums' rules. Finally, here are some of my recommendations: _Music Mouth; _Sock 5: three skins without men; _Ain't Got S*** (Not Stanley #4); _Salad Fingers 1 - Spoons; _Alan: an alternative superhero; _Burnt Face Man 9

I always enjoyed the Salad Fingers series and the Sock series. His videos make me uncomfortable in the most enjoyable way.

That Milkman video... That's something isn't it? I generally like his stuff... But the Milkman one, a bit too much in my opinion.

Firth (along with "Homestar Runner" and "Weebl & Bob") was one of the first flash animators I remember watching that I enjoyed. Creating new IP's rather than parodies and joke songs.
One of my favourite's of Firth was an animation (I forget what it was called) where a man tries to match the hum of the refrigerator and counts all the different shades of grey he has seen in his life.
