    I get it now. What's a good way to make "funky abstract" backgrounds like that? Tips for a newbie?

    Re: The Signature Thread

    BG, like airsoft made, is made by duplicating that C4D, flipping horizontal... [and then messing with blending modes or something maybe].

    Try to do something... Fill BG with color, take C4D, duplicate it, flip it horizontal [or vertical [I think horizontal looks nicer ._.]], blending mode to lighten [If it doesn't work, let it be normal], merge them, duplicate and set blending to example soft light.
    [Hope so Gimp can flip horizontal and vertical... I'm not sure did I use those things or not... so I don't remember .__.'']

    hmm.. I'm not sure did I answered to you question or did I even understand your question... I'm bit sleepy [I slept only 1-2hours], I'm not so good at english and [pretty] stupid ^^'

    I understood what you meant. Thanks. I'll have to try it out later on.

    Ugh this will be my second sig request here, since my South Park Ninjas one. Anyway, I'd like to incorporate my meez Avatar on a sig, but when I try to save the image I can't make it so that it still animates.

    Anyway this is a special request to equity as he was also the one who did my first one.

    Here's the original Avatar:

    I know it's big but I know you can shrink it down a bit.

    If you save it as a non gif etc. and then try to save it again as a gif, it won't work. Maybe use a GIF animator (I think Photoshop can do it), get all the frames, then just make a animated image from those.

    I did try to save it as a GIF image but it only saves as a single frame?

    That's if you save it as something else and then resave it as a gif like I said.

    I cropped out some of the lower parts and a tiny trim off the sides, then resized it to 96 x 96.

    P.S. Adobe Fireworks CS3

    Re: The Signature Thread

    Will I get in trouble for posting a sig I made for another forum. I Moderate a RO forum for a different server. I wanted to show it off. The render I had for it wasn't that great. The person who rendered it didn't do a good job. I didn't notice till the final product was done.

    Re: The Signature Thread

    I think you can... after you did your own one^^
    But if you think you can't do it, try with This.
    That tut looked pretty good but idk... [If you are even going to do something like that but you can always adapt it...]

    Aaagh Mishy...That sig is okay but text could be in corner and BG would be nice if it haves some colors... and why still those big borders????

    Re: The Signature Thread

    Sometimes I like big text...And that sig isn't a permanent one either. I'll probably make a new today. I just need to find a good site that has Ragnarok Online renders. And I haven't the slightest idea why I made that border so big. I was in a "hurry" making it. ;) I'll remember to make my borders smaller. :D

    making an animated sig is totaly different from adding an animation to a sig

    Hey guys, I'm sorry to bug. I have no inkling as to how to make sigs. Don't have Photoshop. This is basically a request for anyone that has some spare time on their hands if they can make me a kick ass sig, I would really appreciate it. If not, its all good. Pl's let me know. Thanks.
