Same thing, just older cartoons pretty much

Cartoons --> Macrophile.com --> VCL --> FA :P

The same reason I have mythical creature fetish...

same here.

I received a letter from the government saying I was selected. Signed by aliens. :)

Cartoons, Lego, my imagination. Mix them all together.
Plus, I just like being big.

Been a macro/microphile for like... ever @w@ but first time I REALLY noticed was prolly the american godzilla film but even then I always was pretty aware that I loved macro/micro. As I got older I found a few macro furry sites and then it became official :O

"Land of the Giants" tv show.

Deanna Lund as Valerie. Short skirts and awesome go go boots in every episode. Grabbed by giants and Scotch-taped along with the male lead hero to a lab table for examination in the first episode. Underdogs to root for.

Always wondered about the possibilities of one guy and several gals getting shrunk to the same small size, adventure-wise and otherwise.

the BFG by Roald Dahl - read in 4th grade :p

I blame the magic school bus from when I was younger. When a shrinkray is the basis of almost every episode you find out fast if you like the thoughts of being small or big.

Me too, that's another source of my micro love... But I didn't realize it at the time.

SAME THING! I also got my love for transformations and living machines from that show too!

PS: not every episode. The volcano, the rainforest, and the space adventures didn't use a shrinkray.

Cartoons played a big part, Lego too, and plushies I had for playing Godzilla with as a kid. ^^

Watching "Honey, I Shrunk The Kids" one too many times growing up.

Found Macrophile dot com a few years too early.

it was a place on sl that had all these giant furries who were well you were just inches tall in that room

dunno. Honey I shrunk the kids sparked a few fantasies. I always liked the episodes of cartoons where someone got shrunk or faced a giant. most of mine comes as a tact on to my foot fetish. they go hand in hand really, being small and stepped on, then other things kindof work their way in through natural course of things.

If I had to choose a moment where there was a "choice" to enjoy shrinking n such. If there was one thing on an impressionable young mind that really made it click and stick somehow. I'd say it was tiny toons, the episode where dizzy gets shrunk by shirley, it turns out that she's kind of hypnotized him, but she puts him in a trantz where he thinks he's shrunk and about gets stepped on a few times. and almost eaten by sweety.
I think that episode really made something click in my head and it the ideas flowed from there and got more intense the older I got.

I was read Gulliver's travel when I was a child. An I often thought about it as I grew older. Puberty officially sealed my love for it. Thinking of all the places I could go, and vice versa. Sooo, I guess I could "blame" my parents or Puberty. Either way. I'm a fan. An I'm not complaining

Pretty much the same as everybody else. Probably started with cartoons and movies like Honey I Shrunk The Kids. Even when I was a little kid I got excited by cartoon episodes that had a giant/shrinking and thought about being shrunk. Magic School Bus and Clifford The Big Red Dog were big influences, Gulliver's Travels too. Once my house received an internet connection I explored online and found other people had similar interests. Joined some Yahoo! groups related to shrinking/growing. I started getting interested in furries around that time, and stumbled on Macrophile.com. A random post there led me to FurAffinity.

Power play, if we're honest.

I just find the idea interesting but I havt really new the sexual part till i saw you gallery...and the one episode of justice league unlimited.

I think I was just born this way. When I was like 4 years, I had this "joke" book that printed the phrase "If you build a better mouse trap, Mother Nature will build a better mouse" (this is a joke?). Next to it was a drawing of a giant cartoon mouse leaning on a house. I used to stare at that picture constantly, and I had no idea why. Well, now I do!

Just a desire to want the world around me to seem big, be small enough to be cuddled by people many times my own size, etc.

But I also get off on the power that comes with macro fantasies so I like both sides of the fence.

to be three billion percent honest? well it was................ your art work! when i first heard of the theme i went to macrophile.com and just found your conner comic then looked at the rest of your work and the "addiction" grew (sorry for the pun)

Alice in Wonderland
Gullivers Travels
The Shrinking of Treehorn.
Incredible Shrinking Woman (somewhat)

The Flintstones whenever Fred got embarrased he would shrink.
Every 70s-80s cartoon had an "Incredible shrinking ______" episode.

And then there was a Choose Your Own Adventure book called "Help! You're Shrinking!" the title of which alone gave me a boner. I would read it in the store and almost spooge in my pants I was so excited. This was when I was maybe 13-14.

I don't remember a particular cartoon that did it, but long before I knew what an erection meant, I was getting them over fantasizing about giant cartoon characters...first the Ninja Turtles, then the Cowboys of Moo Mesa, and later it was Road Rovers. It's just always been something that turned me on, like I said, before I even knew what sex and arousal were.

To give you a vague time frame, I was into TMNT and Moo Mesa when I was in fourth and fifth grade, so I would've been around 9-10 years old, band it would've been roughly 1991-1992.

getting smaller, and watching the other person get bigger <3 and your art of course hun

It's funny, I was just thinking about this. As far as I know I've always liked stories with really big size disparities... as a kid, Clifford the Big Red Dog books were my favorites, and I always enjoyed the "fifty foot sidekick" cliche that was stock in 80's/90's cartoons (see: Captain N, "Wishful Thinking"; Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, "Too Tall Tails"). On the opposite end of the spectrum, I liked The Littles and Chip & Dale (Rescue Rangers and their earlier stuff with Donald Duck).

Well I've always liked the thought of being tiny myself. I think the 80's cartoon "The Littles" really got my imagination going on that one too ^^

At 48 and a half I'm a bit older than many of you. I do remember stuff like Hanna Barbera's Adventures of Gulliver (Liliputians next to Tag's giant paws:

http://shrinking.freehostia.com/Pic/tagpaws.jpg

Clifford the Big Red Dog, TV shows with giant or tiny characters (like when Tony shrank on I Dream of
Jeannie) and then in '76 when I was 14 the TV listings for the Sat afternoon monster movie said it was about a man who dwindles in height...the Incredible Shrinking Man. (Decades later I'd give myself the
nickname Shrinkingman). Loved it--shrinks to the size of a 3 yr old...small enough to live in dollhouse, chased by cat, almost decapitated by a mousetrap, trying to jab a huge spider. Man! I was on the lookout for anything with "giant/tiny". This applies to real life too; seeing things on TV like
people in their late teens who are 3 feet tall and maybe 30 pounds, or giants who get up close to 8 feet tall.

By 97 I got online and found giant/tiny stuff, anthro and non-anthro though not many sites were
"clean" though you could still enjoy some clean stuff like Temdant and Joe Ekaitis, and then I did
the whole shrinkingman.com/shrinking.net things and my own macro/micro stuff here and elsewhere.
Pictures and writing, mostly the latter. Some of my interests could include a kind of Land of the Giants deal: instead of somebody shrinking, an Earthling goes to a planet of giant furs. (See my "Saving a Human"). And I'm still active online uploading cool macro/micro to youtube, checking out FA (in the past did Yerf, which had some cool stuff...)

...kids love giant/tiny--they're used to being smaller and a) can get a kick out of idea of being
smaller yet themselves, or b) seeming giant by comparison by meeting some very small people.
For example, cover of book Castaways in Lilliput where some kids get to tower over the natives
in a more modern Lilliput:

Giant/Tiny is a great genre; you can do so much with it. Comedy, adventure, drama, fantasy...
and you will see it turn up on TV commercials (inch tall woman chased by cat: VW Polo), movies
(Jack Black is Gulliver!), TV cartoons and sitcoms, etc. Books, real life, you name it
(Wild Wild West: tiny Jim, giant cat

My experiences were similar to yours. First it was cartoons that involved shrinking, which caused some strange feelings in me. Then I started to enjoy anything that involved shrinking in some way. Finally as I went through puberty, I discovered Macro/micro websites and image boards, so it become a fetish. It may be unachievable, but I love it so.

Cartoons and movies. Even before I knew I was a macrophile, I for some reason like those movies.

What got me into POV was Antz. That also got me into a shoe f-word craze.

Honey, I Shrunk the Kids also helped, I always feel weird eating cereal thanks to this film.

On-shoe attached miniature cameras (not pointed up, but forward) are what I abso-freaking-lutely love. In-shoe situations are what I also love.

As soon as furries came into the mix, the Macro/Micro community was something I got VERY interested in.  Sheela was my first real peek into furry macro/micro I got since it related to Ratchet and Clank, a game series I liked.

I feel like I just did a group hug admission.

Yeah, and The Magic School Bus helped too. It didn't get me into vore as much as the Honey, I Shrunk the Kids TV series did, but it helped a lot in terms of micro stuff. ( That car washing episode shrunk them down to the molecular level. The only thing that comes close to that episode that I've seen on FA is this unfinished work by  freder http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3511847/ )

Oh, and later on, I caught up with the movie Innerscape, which kind of gets me into a little vore. And the song "Twistin' the Night Away"

bigger is always better =P

The same... cartoons lead me to DA at first. And years later I found FA

The "Micro Godzilla" cartoon episode where Godzilla slowly shrinks down to microscopic size in a petri dish, fights for survival against a spider and then bacteria, and everyone is worried that he'll go to subatomic size or disappear completely if they can't find a cure in time.

The earliest reason I can remember are the giant monster scenes in "1 Million BC." Not the shitty remake, though.

Personally I love the old cartoon shows where a character grows to massive size. Its a shame they don't make more of them.

I remember there was an old NES game I had played when I was much younger, in which your character actually had to be shrunk to get into a small area, and I recall playing it, and enjoying watching the terrible 8-bit rendering of the character growing then shrinking again by use of this one device. No, I don't think that is what got me into it, but it's the earliest thing I can remember noting that I would later find a very fond place in sizeplay like macro/micro. Love watching girls grow now, sometimes watching them shrink with each other always fun too. And of course, love all your stuff as well!

I can honestly say you were a big influence, but in more original form? I think it was paw play. Not simple foot-play, but the idea of anthropomorphics paws, be they bunny, roo, foxie *wink* or other, that interested me. It was a very good tie between Wookie, You, and Sylvan's works that greatly influenced me. Your own hyper work didn't hurt either 8)

Giant bewbs. -^.^-

Mine started out having some strange dreams of me getting turned into a girl and then grow into a giantess. That's what makes me a macro lover.

That was very important for me too. But what got me into macrophilia was Winnie The Pooh, the halloween episode in which he becomes a giant. Search monster frankenpooh!

Same thing, and I always loved the idea of snuggling in between a furry womans breasts.
