The Signature Pics

I have a 2.7Mb sig but I don't want to use it unless I make it a tad shorter.. But then again the video file size for the 15sec Video was 50MB.

The downside of tweening is that it'll make the file sizes bigger. :sweat:

Arnel is the king of animated gifs... Maybe he's got some pointers.

I see.....a downside that is liveable with :mrgreen:

Yes. Arnel is the king of animated gifs. All the ones I've seen so far, I can't help but admire and take watch it in action for 5 mins :hehe:

On d-addicts, there are lots of ppl with multi-mb sigs :hehe:

filesize shouldn't be too big an issue since browsers usually store gifs in cache. its the frames per second that slows down the pc so i usually try to set fps to a small number, 6-7fps, so it doesnt slow down other folks....

you can check if your sigs eat too much resources by looking at task manager... if cpu goes up to 100% when your looking at your sigs and nothing else, then you miht want to slow down ur fps... ^_^

Hey Arnel, since you're the undisputed king of animated gifs, what program are you using to generate these works of art?

well, dont really know bout that :sweat:
but, i still use ulead gif animator to make the gif
and for special effects like glass, emboss, etc, i use ulead photoimpact...
haven't really made any new ones in a while (last one was ueto aya almsot a year ago), just updating the old stuff by adding some effects.

Added the Subaru Drifting on a Wet track.. A Panasonic Lumux CM and same JAL plane take off.

My current sig is the first gif I made. It's all done by freeware I collected from my journey thru the google jungle. And bmwracer, nice to see you here. So you see, I've managed to get one of my projects done: the gif project. Yeay!!!! I'm still struggling with my subtitling project though...but that's for another forum topic :hehe:

It's Sakuraba Yuichiro (Mukodono 2003). For anyone who doesn't know (how could you??!!!), the character was played by Tomoya Nagase.

my sig was only resized from a site where I first saw this :woot:

thats probably a more ideal size for avatar and sig's, probably from the mod's perspective, but if we could go with a larger limit size, i would be find with that even more so. :hehe:
