GypsK ats avatars

To Pazcat:
is it something like this that you wanted?

Ha, yeah that's awesome. I love it.

Thanks a million

Yo GypsK, do u kno a good size for picture signatures?
And nice avatars, i really like the moving avatars, i dont know how to make those...

The one I have in my sig is 30 px hight. You can go a bit larger if you don't add to much text to your signature line I think, but I'd have to look up ats rules for the correct sizes. Not many members have picture sigs

My avatars are 160 x 320 px

To make animated images I use Macromedia Flash. I know there are other free programs on the net, even some that don't require much knowledge.
I can't help you with an animation right now since I don't have the right programs installed on my pc yet (had to format some time ago).

What kind of avi are you looking for?

Thanks for the help an I wasnt really looking for a avi at the moment, i was just wonderin how u made the animated ones so i could start playing around with doin that. Andy youre right, not many people have the picture signatures...

new ones for grab

Reposting the new avi and background changes here, as posted by SO
changes will take effect starting: okt 11th

Avatars
Maximum pixel dimensions: 170 pixels wide by 240 pixels high.
Maximum file size: Remains 75k

Mini-Profile Background Images
Pixel Space: The new "visible" space for background images is 180 pixels wide and 500-550 pixels tall (depending on other factors in your mini-profile).

Maximum File Size: Maximum file size for mini-profile backgrounds is 100k if you're using a clear-GIF as your avatar, if not, the combined file size of your avatar and background image cannot exceed 150k.

Animated backgrounds are not allowed.

So what does this mean?
as an example, here is my avatar the old size and below what will happen to it on okt 11th when I don't change the image:

before the changes


same image after the changes




The new sizes are much more workable for me so I'm not complaining, but I expect to see a lot of mutulated avi's around next week! lol


I'll be remaking and resizing all my available avaters in the near future, but keep in mind that all the previous ones I posted in this thread still have the larger size and won't fit!! . (I'll be removing those once they are resized and reposted)

If I made your avi and you need a resize, let me know in a u2u

To Oz, Elf and Dragonsmusic
rescaled... use if you like

some new ones in the new size format

If I get some images to you and an idea, would you have time to work with them?

I really like the way you swing your jib.

I think you copied the page url and not the image url... and you are missing a "[" somewhere.

this is the right one if you want to link it to my media space:
"http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/232ba52f6d8f.png" (leave the " " away)

sure, just post me the images here and tell me what kind of avi you want, or u2u me

reply to post by GypsK


Thanks, its all up and running now

reply to post by GypsK


Thanks for taking the time. I'd like this image centered...






with this image elongated a bit at the bottom...




I'd like for it to have a "glossy" comic book feel to it. Maybe if you can find a cool way to put my screen name in it? I'll leave that up to you though.

As for the background, I think a darker color would work the best, but if this one #0040a0 works that'd be awesome. It's "superman blue" also called "dodger blue"

Anyway, Thanks for giving me your time, don't feel you have to rush, I'm in no hurry...just realized I have to change my avi to fit the new parameters. If you have any questions ask here or u2u, which ever is best for you.

Thanks again,
Supes.

edit: had to re do the first image. Also, I'm realizing now how the second pic may not work with the new size parameters, so if it doesn't then the superman shield will work just fine. also, that pic has the blue color I spoke about.

reply to post by iamsupermanv2


here are 3 I came up with so far, let me know which style you want and what you want different or added or gone from these avi's.











I looked for the superman font, the 3d one that is used on the comics, but unfortunately it isn't for free... so this one is the closed one to comic font I have atm

reply to post by GypsK


I think these will do just fine. Thank you very much!

I'll be using them all at some point, I reckon.

That was a really fast turnaround. If I had a job to hire you for, I would.

Thanks again.

To Vanhippi....
let's see what you think of these to begin with

From now on I'm making the backgrounds as well
here are two remakes to start with (and if you see me wearing them myself, dun worry, it's just for testing; all backgrounds posted are available unless stated otherwise)








REMEMBER
these are backgrounds, not avatars!

more mini profile backgrounds
