Looks great but you need to save it as a .jpg to get it below the 30k bytes they allow for sigs. It is at over 138k bytes right now


I went an saved it in a .jpg format and then re-linked it. It now says it's 57.68KB. any other suggestions on how to get it lower?

In photoshop there is an option to get it ready for the internet. You can use that to adjust it until you get it undewr 30k. If you don't get it I will get to it later when I get home to my computer with photoshop on it.

I appreciate it stout. I am actually about to leave the office now and head home for the day. If you get a chance to get to it then I will appreciate the help. If not then I will see what I can maybe do in the morning when I come back in. Again, thanks for the info. Have a great day.

No problem Orphan. I really do appreciate the work on it.


That's the hard part. I mean, what I like and want in a sig is may not what you want. I try and post several to see. I never said you had to like and use them. I am not that much of a horse's rear. Thank you for coming out and saying what/how you feel. It only helps me get it done better. Now I'm not saying this for next person to come and be a rear and demand this/that. I enjoy doing this and helping others learn how to do this.

As for your sig...It is very well done. I would never have done it that way (see what I mean?). I just can't get inside your head without posting a ton of questions. It's hit or miss with alot of sigs.

I don't really know how to take images that may have a white background and turn that to transparent so I can use some of the images that I want, so I had to make do with whole images and manipulate them the best I could.


Do you want just the image without the background or you want to able to see through the image? Start a thread and we can work this out.

Sorry for the text book answer, I just want to be of help to the forum.

All the best to those that care,
Orphan

Hey man. I really do appreciate the time you took to help me out on the sig pic because I know that you really didn't have to do that for me. I hope that nothing I said or did offended you in any way and if that is or was the case then that is my fault and I apologize. You were basically right on with how I was thinking of it in my head. I was on my lunch break and was trying to take a photo and do some stuff to it so I could put it on my blackberry and found out some tricks. I then thought I would try my hand at doing a sig pic (hard work to me) and before I knew it I had kind of gone a little off course of what I was originally thinking. But I really do again appreciate you taking your time and hope that I haven't offended you in any way. I will definitely get a thread started because I do have some questions if you or anyone else want to take the time. Have a great night.

You guys are great(orphan / stout). I tried and tried to get it under and I couldn't help but sacrifice the image quality when I finally did. I have a long way to go if I want to help out on things like this. Thanks stout.

No, no, no-sir. You misunderstood me. I am not offened at all. No need to apologize. What I ment was that I have a different idea than others of what they want. That's the hard part, getting something they see in their head to a sig.
