Modify Spelling Errors and added a picture
editHello Everyone,
I modified a few spelling errors in the history section of the article and added a picture that is, public domain, of Betty Boop next to the Full animation paragraph. If I have made a mistake let me know and I will fix it. If I don't fix it myself, feel free to fix it yourself.

Emile Reynaud
editWe stumped on the french wiki page of "dessin animé", equivalent of cartoon in english, and the first inventor in both French and German pages is Emile Reynaud with "Pauvre Pierrot" in 1892. We definetly think that the historical section of the page needs major revisions, starting from considering adding this.

- On which German pages is Reynaud actually mentioned as "the first inventor"? The German page for Animation doesn't mention any inventor and doesn't even have a history section, neither does there seem to be any German article on the history of animation.
- "Dessin animé" is described as a film genre on the French page, so it makes a bit more sense to ignore all the animation before film and consider Reynaud's work as earliest examples. Imho, this doesn't look like an example that we should follow here. The French page for "Animation (audiovisuel)" is the more general page about animation and of course prominently features French pioneer Reynaud, but doesn't ignore what came before.
- Reynaud's praxinoscope is mentioned on this page and the bluelinked History of animation has his Theatre Optique and associated titles as a section of "earliest animations on film" (using the term "film" rather loosely, since Reynaud used a chain of inflexible and rather fragile gelatine plates, which is quite different from what's usually called film).
- It may be fair to mention Reynaud's contributions on this page. However, imho, the history section would probably benefit more from getting shortened into a very brief abstract of the history article, in very broad strokes, with less names and titles rather than more.

Future of animation
editMany animations are computer animations made with computer-generated-imagery (CGi), while traditional animation was created and drawn using a computer system via graphics tablet because of the limitations of pencil-on-paper animation and scanned drawings.
