Deku Link Siggy..

Just finished it, thinking of doing one for Goron/Zora Link, too.



Thoughts?

There's this:

Also the "designed by" text makes it look heavily stupid, and there's always the part that the filesize is very large.

Ooh thanks. Will post stuff in there from now on.

Also the "designed by" text makes it look heavily stupid,

A tag taints the entire sig? Loool. I added it because my stuff has been stolen on other forums I'm a member of.

and there's always the part that the filesize is very large.

I was unable to achieve the concept of the sig without it being that large It's not for use here anyway, I know the size restrictions.

Thanks for the comments!

I don't add such text, and my work hits the intermediate range. If stuff gets stolen you always have the PSD, which should lead to the thief getting a ban. There's also the fact that removing that text of yours would take ~30-35 seconds with the clone tool and the healing brush. You could also do with simple "JDO963" text, as the "designed by" makes it look heavily fruity.

I mean the file size.

Anytime, drop a PM if you need more.

Oh my goodness, your sigs are fantastic!!!!!! I love animation sigs!

Take out the text (or make it blend in more with a different font) and get rid of the border (or just make the border solid) and you've got it made. VERY nice work.

Tutorial plz?

Yeah, I could show you the forum which my stuff was stolen. The guy proceeded to take a sig I made, add his OWN tag and post it in the show off section lol. I sign up to protest, and ultimately get banned as the guy is "popular." Sucks, eh? lol, but yeah I might just start putting JD0963 on there.

Yeah I know lol. There was no way of adding the animation without it being pretty large, I tried optimizing it as much as I could but it looked too grainy :/

Thanks! They take long enough to make lol, and I'm starting to se what people mean about the font.. *runs off to download new ones*

I'll try and make a tut in the future

Then those people are people you shouldn't care too much about! ;D

I hate adding nothing to the comments above me, but your signature work is amazing, definitely some of the best small graphics work I've seen in awhile. You should get around to showing off some of your other stuff, methinks.

It's moving.
How did you do that?
I love it, btw.

Dannn bro/girl you've got skills.

By making it a .gif?

Most animation sigs are embarassing, but that is actually quite nice.

I consider this to be quite excellent, but your actual sig is cooler IMO.

You got some very nice stuff, but no doubt very large sizes. You love to have your stuff move don't you? Lol.

And I would agree.

I direct you to this: http://digg.com/design/Stock_art_web...riginal_artist

Those sort of people should not be tolerated. It starts as a simple sig stealing and can evolve into something much worse. Ignoring it is the worst thing you can do.

To the OP: I actually do like that sig. I will say, your current one is just not evil enough, it's too happy for Majora's Mask.

Don't try to educate me about ripping unless you know my stance of it. I said he shouldn't give a **** about kids at some .freeforums site - if it was at a graphics site or at a site with a relatively large community, like ZU, action where possible should be taken.

I was simply saying he was justified in his actions. His work was stolen, he has a right to stick up to that. I was not attacking you despite your aggression. I merely do not think ignoring it is the appropriate action, no matter the size of the site.

It depends. He wanted critique, I gave him critique.

Have I said he shouldn't stick up?

I'm just defending myself.

It's not like he can do anything to 10 year olds on free forums, nor does it matter - if they post anywhere where he would want his work posted, they're simply fried. That's how it works in signature communities.

Possibly, as you do have a point. Signatures are highly regarded as a lesser art form, which I find saddening. On positive note, I have never had my work stolen to my knowledge. I think it is mostly the fact that most people know it would be an awful, awful idea to steal from me. My wrath is legendary, I feed on my victims' tears. Mwahaha.

Anyway, this is getting highly off topic.

I believe he uses Adobe ImageReady or something of that sort? It's a program where you can make multiple images and layer them on top of each other to give the illusion of movement, ie. animation. Fireworks can also do this.
