Hi Guyz

i started again to create some sigs/avas (done some years ago ^^)
and i think i am going well

here they are

a static one


and an animated one


here is my question:

the forum rules only allow 70kb size for sigs !
how can i reduce the size of the animated one to fit the rulez?

On the top one do you see how the background is sharper than the girl? It makes it seem as though the background is actually closer. Trying blurring it and sharpening the girl a little.

As far as you're question about animation goes, I have no idea. I don't mess with animation much

Why save it as a gif? Should save as PNG.

saving it as a png brings up a 120kb image, which is way to big ....

I personally don't worry about kb size unless someone complains ^^.
Anyway, save as a .jpeg and just lower the quality from 12 to whatever brings it down to <70kb.
As for the animated one, either remove frames from it or lower the quality of the pic (bring down the # of colors or something).

Or, if you want, I know a site that will hide the kb size of the signature for you. Just pm me if you would like to know this site

Edit-the site is in another language tho, but really easy to do, kinda self expanitory
