Yeah I already went for the 'Save for Web' thing, for that .gif. The characters btw aren't sprites, those are normal .jpeg images I got from sfgalleries.net.

@ Carcrazy: How do you make those crazy cool backgrounds in your sigs? I'm assuming it involves brushes and I'm a complete noob when it comes to brushes... Can you (or anyone else) point me to a tutorial? Every tutorial I come across just says "use some brushes to make a cool background, this is what I got: *insert amazing background*"

Maybe so, but they are often still WAY to large. That r3act sig is pretty small, but is still 2.5x the size it would need to be if I wanted to use it here.

For example, even this JPEG, (Which was saved using "save for web") is still to large...

I don't really think I like this one that much...

This is how much skill is required to use brushes: |-|

Ok dude. We get it, you don't like Brushes and oppose using them.

Download some off deviantart and play around with them... randomly select brushes in PS you think will look good.

You use GIMP right? If not and use Photoshop use the .jpg save for web and just click in the little box with numbers (that's the quality box) just tap your down arrow to reduce the quality until you get a decent size. I try to make sure it's as close as possible to 50 kb so that the sig retains most of the quality but it has a much smaller size.

As for that sig I think it pwns. Remove the "glare" thing and it'll be absolutely perfect.

Pssh... GIMP sucks...

And I'll look into the glare. But right now I have to get ready for homecoming...

@ Carcrazy: No, GIMP is good, Microsoft Paint sucks.

xHaZxMaTx · Post by **xHaZxMaTx** » 29 Sep 2007, 04:14

The GIMP is actually more capable than Photoshop because it's open-source.

Made this for Viper_16. Hope you like it.

All i have to say is that it is unique.

i like my sig

BrontoX · Post by **BrontoX** » 29 Sep 2007, 23:09

Wait...... Did you ask Jop to do a sig for you or he did it just like that?

Also no offense but your sig would get a 3/10 in Appearance in "Rate the Sig above you", but as long as you like it...

And, I wasn't really making that to make a super ub3r aw3s0m3 sig.... I was just making it for fun.

And, that 3/10 would be an opinion, not a fact.

Ouch.

That wouldn't be so funny if his sig wasn't made for him by someone else.

So as to stay on topic-- *Shows off his sig.* :3

What can i say... I got ticked off?

What do you think?

Porsche-AG · Post by **Porsche-AG** » 30 Sep 2007, 08:10

Intricate design... I can see your anger turning into visual art

Good job on that.

Carcrazy · Post by **Carcrazy** » 30 Sep 2007, 08:14

Thanks...

it looks good, i like it. but still, doesn't compete with the react one, awesome

Carcrazy · Post by **Carcrazy** » 01 Oct 2007, 01:57

What was so great about my react sig? You haven't even seen it in its entirety. You have to see it on a dark background to see all the effects.

Zero260 · Post by **Zero260** » 01 Oct 2007, 04:20

New Sig for team react. Nothing special, but what do you guys think?

Porsche-AG · Post by **Porsche-AG** » 01 Oct 2007, 04:47

I think you just ruined the ReACT Team Session's reputation for having appealing sigs.

Just kidding.

It looks pretty good, a lot more appealing that your previous sig/avatar combination. But personally, I think the colors that you used aren't amazing. I realize that you chose those colors to match the vehicle you chose, but maybe you should have chosen a different vehicle.

Carcrazy · Post by **Carcrazy** » 01 Oct 2007, 07:25

I like the colors... although you should have a border on there...

What do y'all think?
