    Since @Kumary found his gif, I'm wondering if anyone can help add some effects to an image and make it into a gif for my new signature? (perhaps @ReaperOfCookies? :) )

    EDIT: I might actually make this a fun side project since I have never bothered learning after effects

    I want to take the GIF format an strangle it to death. So frustrating to work with.

    Calm down @Krojak :p, should work fine as long as you don't try to get a transparent background

    But I like lots of colors, and GIF only uses 256, and it pixelates all the prettiness, and... and... and...  :'(

    Less is more!

    Seriously, take my word for it. I'm a graphic designer with official papers.

    But you can see the pixelation and artifacts in the current gif. What if I wanted to make the hair wave in the wind? What if I wanted the shine on the armor to fluctuate? I HAVE SO MUCH CREATIVE POWER IN ME THAT NEEDS TO EXPLODE OUT!

    There is only so much you can do with the size we are allowed to play with

    Well you can do that all with either less colours or pixalation :p

  • ArchivedUserArchivedUser Guest

    Unfortunately, I can't get it to do a text only signature.
    If I remember correctly it has to be shorter than 111 characters. Maybe yours was too long?
  • ArchivedUserArchivedUser Guest
    You can't have any text sadly the forum seems to hate it 
  • ArchivedUserArchivedUser Guest
    Oh alright. I just remembered putting the html code for my picture in the wrong place at first and it told me it was too long, so I thought that was the only problem. I never actually tried to put text in there on the new forums.
  • ArchivedUserArchivedUser Guest
    The first time I tried to do a sig I tried text and kept getting the error message about the amount of characters until it occurred to me it was bugged. :s  But, it did give me a push to try something else. :p
  • ArchivedUserArchivedUser Guest
    Thank you @AutumnWillow for my "cool kid" sig.  <3
  • ArchivedUserArchivedUser Guest
    No problem @T-Elf. I sent you a slightly updated sig where the girl doesn't twitch on the last frame, you should use that one. And also, you have 2 broken pictures in your signature. Here's the non-twitchy one in case you missed it

    Does it sound odd of me to say I kinda like the twitch?  I don't know how to get rid of the 2 broken pix as I've deleted everything that showed up in the sig box.
  • ArchivedUserArchivedUser Guest
    haha, if you like the twitch you can keep it no problem. :smile:

    you currently can't have text in your sig. Only images. The workaround is to type soemthing out, screenshot/crop it. and use it as you sig.

    It's my original WoW signature gif-icized (I'm making that a verb btw).

    Besides, I'm more of a Wheel of Time fan myself :)

    Same here.  For a while I was using this as my signature:



    @Krojak & @AutumnWillow encouraged me to give it a go, so I did.  @Kumary has been trying to help me work out an animated signature.  :)
