I need help with text animation. Please

-----------------------------------

Ok, I am making a proggie, and as u can see i am a n00b. and an extreme n00b too. Anyways I made a flashing program/text. I want the word Washo Soapo to appear once i run it, but i made it so the user must input the word Washo Soapo so he can see the text effect. I dont want that to happen. I want Washo Soapo to start flashing without the user having to input the word as the answer. Also, could someone also PLEASE PLEASE make an intro for me. 

Thanks a lot  :D

Just a few things here:
Firstly, use a more descriptive topic name.
Second, instead of just asking them to input the word, just set your variable yourself!

get word % change that line to
word := "washo soapo"

Third, do NOT ask somebody to make a intro for you. It's your job to make this and unless I'm getting paid, I've already done enough for you.
