Hi. I have created a character from a drawing and now when i move my head the right arm follows the body movement while the left one stays put. I have hopefully added my files to the drop down below i cant really see whats in there

No attachments came through sorry. You can paste screenshots directly into the text panel, but big attachments really need to be put in DropBox/Google drive etc and share a link here.

 

Are the arms independent? My guess is one is not attached to the body correctly at the shoulder. If the origin handle of the arm is not green (indicating attachment) the arm will not move with the body. A screenshot of the rigging hierarchy can also help spot common little mistakes.

I tried uploading it to dropbox but they down allow for the kinds of files. I will see if there is something i can do about it. I have been comparing the two arms, but i can't seem to find any difference whatsoever. They are both independent, both have "weld" as attachment and both shoulders should overlap with the body. I will hopefully upload soon and provide a link. 
Thanks

Even just screenshots posted into the text box here in the forums can help. On Windows i use "snipping tool", on mac I use I think control-command-4 which gives a cursor to draw out a rectangle on the screen. Then control-v (windows) or command-v (mac) when you have the cursor in the text box where you type here. You don't need to mess with the attachement stuff.
