I started messing around with Animation Shop to creat a sig, a few hours later and this is all I came up with. It's a little big for a sig though, just a little little.



Im kinda a noob with image/animation editors, I wish there was a way to scan hand drawn images onto the comp for editing.

Anyways wacha think? Any tips you would like to share?

Um...talk about a ripoff.

And while the font is neat, it's difficult to read it quickly.

Copied? I got the idea from dark_soul74's sig to throw a bunch or words around, yes. I wouldn't call it copying though.

As I said I was just messing around with animation shop.

That's the problem with these kinds of sigs. They have no meaning. It's just random words that follow a theme.

I'll throw out words too, like Parm, and LogJat, and Boolamo.

Well, the thing is, you have the same exact negative message.

I'd suggest doing something like that 'AJ's dog' avy that I did. It might help you increase your skills.

Hmm....

Animating gifs is fun. I have prefered to use the simple animating program that came with front page though.

Of course It is a negative message. I play too many violant games, watch too much news and live in one screwed up uhh.. place. You gonna accuse me of copying the negative message?

Yes, Dark_Soul74 mad his animation 1st.
Yes, I got an idea from Dark_Soul74.
But isn't it possible that two people can think and feel the same way and end up createing something that turns out similar?

No. :)

It's better to make things on your own, without gaining much influence from another person. That way, you creations have your own unique theme to them. Like ZDS and very blurry images(Not that I like them. ;)). I simply stated that it was very similar to my own, not ask for everyone to point at you and call you a copycat.

Oh well.

Any new sigs made? Mine didn't take me very long, so you should have been able to come up with something new by now. :D

Well a played around a little more, wen't all out and they ended up being a few megs.

Anyway I know what I am going to do for the sig animation when I get a chance... I would tell you more but soebody may beat me to it and I would be copying again.

I don't mind the avatar, but the sig may need a little work.

my avatar is proof that Animation shop and slight variations on color has a cool effect.

Wow, I really need to get photoshop, or something good, hmm, maybe i'll GIMP it up.
Also, Will anyone host my sigs when I make it? I have to tell my information to most of them to sign up for it, and I want to stay anonymous. If anyone will host them I will put them up for review
