Poorly Powered.

A page made using Powered by The Cheat technology.

Starring: Homestar Runner, Strong Bad, Strong Sad, The Cheat

Page title: "Powered by The Cheat"

Toons - A circle with a slash through it appears over Homestar.
Games - Homestar Runner spits when he says games and a blinking games logo with lightning flashes behind him.
Characters - A boat that says "wear a bikini" spins around and stuff.
Downloads - Strong Bad moves with a poorly done shape tween and says "I am over here", then jumps back and says "Now I am back over here."
Store - An oval sun lights up around the Store button and Strong Sad floats through the sky and says, "I'm sad that I'm flying...".
Email - Strong Bad comments on The Cheat's work. 3 possible comments.

Fun Facts

The three possible comments from scrolling over e-mail are:
- Strong Bad: And what is that terrible voice? Is that supposed to be Homestar? The Cheat: {Defensive The Cheat noises}
- The Cheat: {Questioning The Cheat noises} Strong Bad: The animation looks terrible. It's all jerky, ya know, like it was done by a two years old boy.
- The Cheat: {Exclamatory The Cheat noises} Strong Bad: Once again, your visual style just looks thrown together. It looks like you don't care.
"Wear a Bikini!' is a recurring Inside Joke.
The Strong Bad that goes back and forth is a typical example of shape tweening in Macromedia Flash, this technique is commonly used by cheap flash animation.
After rolling over "E-mail", you can quickly roll over the other buttons on The Cheat's computer. Only the E-mail and Museum buttons are functional on The Cheat's computer.
Right click anywhere on the screen and then click "play". This allows you to see The Cheat and Strong Bad talking, while preserving the "What's new"-type links at the top.
To truly appreciate lousy animation, right click, scroll over quality, and click "low".
