AlanHo Posted November 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 I really love your avatar. Where/how did you obtain it... or is that a trade secret. ;)once upon a time, I joined Windows Forum and was rather taken by the avatars of the members. I felt lonely and depressed because I didn't have one, so I ventured into the dark recesses of the internet in my quest. Lo and behold, after much searching, I found a site for free avatars upon which there were some animated signatures - but alas - there wasn't one for my name. However - it gave me the inspiration to search for an animated signature which included my name spelled correctly. Mr Google came along and volunteered to help me in my mission and after much searching using the search term "animated signatures" I found what my heart had yearned for.However - and there always seems to be an "however" in the best fairy stories, the avatar was too big for the Forum in terms of file size. Here I was with the solution of my dreams and I couldn't use it.I use Paint Shop Pro for graphic editing and the version I had at that time was bundled with a programme called JASC Animation Shop 3. I had never used the animation programme before - but fired with the burning desire to have my animated signature I loaded the beast and set about editing the animation by deleting some frames and reducing the overall size until at long last I got it down to the acceptable limit for the forum.So I added it to my profile and have used it ever since - and have lived happily ever after.Why don't you do the same - follow the yellow brick road to google land.

artist Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Aaww - don't you like my eye?It's very easy to reduce the size of animations in Paint Shop Pro - as long as there aren't too many frames. It won't touch flash animations though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irene Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Why don't you do the same - follow the yellow brick road to google land.I did a quick spin on Google and came up with a signature (no doubt you can see it below!). B) It may well get superseded at some later date. ;)It's not there!!! Where has it gone? :0 It's back. Not sure what happened there.

AlanHo Posted November 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 What is it - a picture of a mole....or rabbit?I cannot help you with the techie stuff - it's so long ago I set my Avatar up I have quite forgotten how you do it and the proper parameters. One of the other lads here will surely leap to help a lovely damsel in distress. Might be tomorrow though if they have all drunk their cocoa or horlicks.
