Yep. I did create the famous Shiggy eek.
I think I made it sometime during the shiggy craze. I created each frame in Paint Shop Pro 7 just using a simple cut around the mouth and painting around the eyes, changing things a little bit every frame. Then I used Jasc Animation Shop 3 to put 'em all together with its animation wizard, then exported the final product to a single .gif animation file. The Shiggy eek was inspired by the early Animutations with funny looking jaw drops and eyes popping out. I was also informed personally by Mr. Miyamoto himself that his jaw drops and eyes bug out in a cartoonish like manner when he is very surprised or startled.
