Title: Animated Sig Request - Reward: 1 BAe half price
Post by: Jps on March 02, 2008, 03:22:22 am: I get bored of sigs many times.. And it's time for a new one. :lol:

Surprisingly I don't even know how to make one :roll:

Im giving a BAe for half price for the person who makes the sig that is the best of them all.

Here's what I want:

A sig that..

1. Has the USG logo on the bottom left hand corner
2. ID 5000 on the bottom right hand corner

Text in Slides

First Slide: Green Industries
Second Slide: Providing Aircraft with Care
Third Slide: *a 737 flying in*
Fourth Slide: A United Sky Group member

Thanks

Jps

Post by: iranair777 on March 02, 2008, 10:08:07 am: I beg you dont make one which is animated just to show yourself. the reason being some of us have either crap computers or crap PC's at school which hang for a while whenever we are scrolling down a post which you have replied to. I have a perfectly good work laptop which is about a year old, so dont be saying that my laptops cr@p.

Not a bad idea, at all. But... did you notice that your own sig is, technically speaking, an animated GIF?

Post by: Scandalian Airlines on March 02, 2008, 01:33:16 pm: There should be a max size for animated gifs, say 150k. Jp, yours is 3 times that, and that does hog older computers.
Mine and Stephens are around 100k which should not be too bad. :)

Post by: Jps on March 02, 2008, 01:44:53 pm: the max should be 400k :lol:

Post by: Hampo on March 02, 2008, 04:10:26 pm: Half a megabyte is a huge amount just for an animated sig

Post by: StephenM on March 02, 2008, 05:28:15 pm: Ok, I will make animated signatures more stringent.
Title: Animated Sig Request - Reward: 1 BAe half price
Post by: Jps on March 03, 2008, 09:50:36 am: Seriously no more than 200k? :roll: Can't you do 250? :lol:
Title: Animated Sig Request - Reward: 1 BAe half price
Post by: StephenM on March 03, 2008, 10:05:07 am: No, because we want to make the forums usable. Even looking at some threads I think the signatures are too big.
Title: Animated Sig Request - Reward: 1 BAe half price
Post by: Jps on March 03, 2008, 10:09:38 am: 250 please?? :lol: It's still usable. Im using 400k right now and you're using the forum right now.

WTF, are you high or something? I can image most of our computers will freeze every time the sig comes up. For example JPS's current sig hogs down my school computers whenever It is viewed, so you scroll down and it starts stuttering

Excuse me, but are you bonkers? :lol:
On every page there are 15 posts, imagine that those posts are made by 15 different persons, all with a 600K siggy, that's 9 MB of data. Then imagine that 100 users watch that topic on that day and you are getting close to 1GB bandwidth for that topic that day. Ok some may argue that once you have seen the siggy it's in your cache, but some people like me clear their cache often in order to keep the system fresh. And if you are on a 500kb/s cable connection it will take close to 2.5 minutes to load that page.

All I'm saying is-get real!
