agent305 (http://www.blazerforum.com/showprofile.asp?memID=3733)'s sig is a good example of one that remains within all requirements (640x200px and under 500KB) and still looks good! Check it out!

looks awesome, isnt my GPnet sig the same size Gary? cause you could post that one too as a good example.

wow thats sooo tight lookin! gary i think w/ this ur gunna load up on some sig requests lol

That looks cool. I think his default pic on myspace is animated too. Did anyone ever figure out how to animate on Paint.NET? or is it not possible?

I did not make Agent's sig. I just wanted to show an example of a sig that is cool and still fits within the parameters set out in Rules and Regulations (http://www.blazerforum.com/m_142767/tm.htm).

oh! my bad...

sry gary i just assumed. props to agent or who ever made it

Hopefully they make a better animated image format soon... I mean, you'd think they'd have something better than .gif by now... :D

well i think almost everyone has seen the one i made below

Brent, I could never find a way to make an animated .gif with paint.Net. However, I only used it for 2 or 3 days so I'm sure you are more familiar with the software. FWIW, I couldn't figure it out in GIMP (http://www.download.com/GIMP/3000-2192_4-10073935.html?tag=toprated) either.

I didn't know if there was a trick to it or anything like layering it a certain way... oh well....

i used imageready, it came with photoshop.
im not sure if paint.net can animate...can it?

I don't think so. I read through the manual and it does't seem to have anything about animating.

Here is a link to some FREE animation programs (http://www.download.com/3150-2186_4-0-1-0.html?qt=&rows=10&start=0&operatingSystemId=&lice nseTypeId=49&fileSize=&ca=). I have played around with Sqirlz Morph a little bit but not enough to use it very well.

Squirlz Morph seems to have large file sizes when you animate. Brent's sig is just a hair over 500KB (using Squirlz) but the same in PS would be about half that...
