No, it's not illegal -- it's just not officially supported. You can use an FLV download tool such as Ant Video Downloader and Player for Mozilla Firefox (https://addons.mozilla.org/En-us/firefox/addon/video-downloader-player/?src=search) to download the Flash files.

We have never officially support downloading Flipnotes from personal computers. However, it is possible to download the Flash files (FLV) from the site with some free tools you can find on the net.

Flipnote Hatena News Feedback
Hi Sav, I will try to answer your questions below:
Q: If we make animations on our DSI and we get a 3DS somehow, can we send our flips from the DSI to the 3DS?
A: We will have to wait for Nintendo to make an announcement about that to know for sure. Hatena is not involved in the development of the new software for the Nintendo 3DS, so we do not know either.
Q: How do you become popular on the new Flipnote so you don't have to pay the monthly fee?
A: Hatena is not making the new services for the Nintendo 3DS, so we don't know how this system will work or about the fees.
Q: Can we still view our flipnotes on the flipnote hatena website on the computer?
A: Everything on Flipnote Hatena (both the website and the Nintendo DSi) will be taken offline on May 31, 2013. Please post your Flipnotes to YouTube or download ones that you wish to save to your Nintendo DSi if you want to watch them after Flipnote Hatena closes.
Q: Is there any other animation sites like Flipnote that we can go on in case we can't afford a 3DS?
A: I don't know of any other sites exactly like Flipnote Hatena, but perhaps some users in the community here can recommend some to you.
Q: Is animation a good job for us in the future?
A: Working in the arts is good if you enjoy what you are doing and can make enough money to support your lifestyle. There are better careers if you want to make lots of money. That being said, life is too short to not do what you want to do. Follow your heart!
Q: Is the animation process different on flipnote rather than in a real job, or are they the same?
A: There are so many different tools that you can make animation with, but the basic concepts are the same with whatever you use. Flipnote Studio is a good tool that you can learn to use quickly, and the best thing is that it is free.

Someone suggested "mountains and clouds" as a weekly topic in the feedback section, and I thought it sounded like fun.

I believe that if you didn't delete and reinstall Flipnote Studio on your Nintendo DSi,
the items you starred before you registered should still be associated with your Hatena ID.
Also, if any of the Flipnotes you starred were erased then they won't appear anymore.

We have interviewed 148 users since we started this section of the blog and have always accepted suggestions for creators to be interviewed. I posted this interview with myself because there were no more replies from users that we could interview. Truthfully, we have sent hundreds of emails to users who never responded to our requests to be interviewed.
Please re-read the message at the end of this interview that says "Everyone who has ever posted a Flipnote is a Hatena Featured Artist". That is truly how I feel, and if we could have interviewed more creators we certainly would have. We tried our best, and hope that you enjoyed some of the interviews over the past 3 years.

I agree that it would be great if we could continue the weekly topics in a new way after Flipnote Hatena closes. I will definitely consider that, and thanks for your feedback!
-

Flipnote Hatena News Feedback
It really is a challenge to choose topics that appeal to everyone. In my experience, simple things seem to work best, since that allows people to make something as simple or complicated as the want. I am always open to ideas from the community for new weekly topics, and that's one of the reasons we have this feedback section.

The Flipnote Hatena JSON API is now available, and there is some documentation in English at the URL below:

The code for the PPM file format is owned by Nintendo, not Hatena, so unfortunately we cannot release that.

Whatever site you joined is not made by us, and we cannot vouch for the authenticity of any information about Flipnote Hatena that we do not post ourselves.
We will continue to post information and updates about the closing of Flipnote Hatena on our blog at http://d.hatena.com/flipnotehatena/ and on Flipnote Hatena for Nintendo DSi.
-

Flipnote Hatena News Feedback
The new services will be developed and managed by Nintendo, so Nintendo will make all of the decisions regarding those kinds of issues. Hatena is not at all involved in that process, however, we hope that their new services will meet the expectations of our user community.

Flipnote Hatena News Feedback
You can still make Flipnotes on your Nintendo DSi -- you just won't be able to post them to Flipnote Hatena. You can also continue to use Hatena's other online services for free (like Hatena Haiku that you are using now) to communicate with your friends from Flipnote after the service closes.

Two new online communities will be ready for the release of Flipnote Studio 3D. Both communities will be managed by Nintendo. Hatena is not involved in the development or management of these new services, so we are unable to answer questions about what features they will have or their fees. For more information please visit Nintendo's website in your region.
I am glad that you like the new weekly topic, and thanks for the explanation of the story of your excellent alphabet Flipnote. I really enjoyed it!

Hatena and Nintendo collaborated on Miiverse too. Miiverse is managed by Nintendo, while Flipnote Hatena is managed by Hatena.

That's a good question. Personally, I hope that Hatena will develop some new services for users outside of Japan. That's not entirely my decision though.

According to Nintendo you can use their new online service for free for the first 30 days, and there will be special days when you can use it for free as well. Also, they have plans to make it possible to use the service for free if you make popular animations.
Please understand that the new service for Flipnote Studio 3DS is being developed and managed by Nintendo, and Hatena is not at all involved in any choices about the pricing or features of the new service.

Ask Aaron Questions!
I have spent over 4 years working on Flipnote Hatena and am also very sad to see it go offline. My hopes for now are that we can have a great time here until the service ends, and that Nintendo can provide a new service that will meet everyone's expectations.
Hatena is not involved with the development or management of the new service for Flipnote Studio 3DS, but we will try our best to help make a smooth transition for our user community to the new services.
Unfortunately it is not an option for us to keep the Flipnote Hatena website or an archive on it online after May 31. Hopefully Nintendo will come up with some ways for creators to be able to use the Flipnotes they posted to Flipnote Hatena with their new service.
-
-

The Flipnote Hatena website and the Flipnote Hatena service on the Nintendo DSi will both go offline on May 31, 2013. Keep posted for announcements from Nintendo about how to access content from Flipnote Hatena after the service ends.

Thanks for your feedback, and we appreciate your advice.
Users who post inappropriate "hidden layer" content have all of their Flipnotes and comments permanently removed from Flipnote Hatena.
However, we don't want to publicize the ability to hide content under layers because it might actually encourage people to try it.
Please report these kinds of Flipnotes if you encounter them. Our content moderators can see content in all layers whether it is hidden or not.

We do not feature Flipnotes which contain copyrighted content used without permission for the weekly topic.
I am not familiar with the character Muriel from "Courage the Cowardly Dog", but will look into the situation.
We clearly state that we cannot feature Flipnotes which contain copyrighted content, which you should have understood.
Also, just because your Flipnote is longer than someone elses or took longer to make does not mean it is a better Flipnote. We choose the Flipnotes to feature here based on how creative they are, and that relate well to the weekly topic.
As I have written before, if your Flipnote is not featured here it does not mean it is not good or we did not like. We can only feature 6 Flipnotes per region every week -- if we could feature everyone we would!

First of all, this keyword is for "Flipnote Hatena News" feedback, not for "complaints" or support related questions.
Second of all, there is no "devastating glitch" that randomly removes random Flipnotes from Flipnote Hatena.
Everything that is reported to us at Hatena is checked by our moderators who will only remove content that violates the rules.
It appears that you may be trying to post a spin-off of a Flipnote that was removed for a Terms of Use violation, or possibly repost a Fliponte that had been removed previously.
If you have a problem trying to post a Flipnote, please contact our support department and let them know the URL or the Flipnote ID of what you are trying to post.
