	Clay Animator How To Site: Onion Skinning (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-07-04)
		The term "onion skinning" comes from a traditional animation technique of using thin translucent tracing paper to view animated sequences.
		When onion skinning is activated, such as in an animation program, objects in frames before or after the current frame are displayed but are dimmed so that you can distinguish them from objects in the current frame.
		Being able to onion skin the animated object lets the animator see all the frames at the same time revealing the distance the object has moved between each frame and what direction the object is moving.
