Hey all!
Below is a FAQ for anyone interested:

What is this newspost about?

-I'm looking for a serious artist/animator to design and animate a character for my game.

What is the game about?

-While I can't publicly give much information about the game it basically is a multi-level arcade/strategy game.

What have you done for the game so far?

-Right now, I'm putting together the final graphics for the game. While only a little bit of the game has been designed so far, I have finished the engine for the game and have done 60% of the graphics.

How much work do I need to do?

-Its really simple I need you to do one thing..design me a character that matches the specs that I set and then animate the character doing simple actions ex: jumping, running left.

What are the specs for the character?

-The character needs to be only one color(black).
-The character needs to have animations of it running left, right, and jumping.
-The character should look similar to the "Shift" series character
-The character should have a width and height between 17-20 pixels.

Can anyone do this?

-While I'm not going to stop inexperience or new artists from trying to do this I would prefer a more experienced artist to do this.

How will I be credited for my work?

-I will add your username to the credits and menu page as well as adding your username to the author's comments section.

Will I be payed for my work?

-Currently, I am unable to promise pay to anyone for thier work, however, I really think this game has a good chance of being sponsored which, depending on the amount of the sponsorship, would be between 5-10%.

I'm interested, what should I do?

-First, you should either leave a comment here or PM me.
-Then I will respond either via the comments page or PM giving you "the go" and answering any other questions or concerns you may have.

How does the game look so far?

-Below is a picture of the 1st level of the game and includes a combination of placeholders and final graphics.
