    Just wanted to bring this up.

    I've been working on few animated gif files for use here on the forums. In fact grnd93 is using one of them as his avatar.

    However when you look at his new avatar, the jeep chic no longer bounces.

    Yes, I'm a fan of Adobe Stuff (Photoshop, After Effects, & Premiere)

    Yes, and I'm very disappointed in this. Yours would be sweet if it was animated as well.
    I'll be hardcore when I can afford it.

    If I can find the film it came from, I would. All I'd have to do is convert it to a short .gif file.

    To be quite frank, if the only reason people want animated avatars is so we can have girls, either animated or real, shaking their shiznit, I'm not too inclined to figure out what needs to be done to make it work.

    jeep chic is probably too big so it's only taking the first frame. That's a guess, I wont have tim eto look into it for say.... a decade or so

    I also forgot about yours........

    and what's wrong with seeing girls shaking their stuff? Or is marriage getting to you already?

    Edit: I just did a quick comparison of the 2 files. This is what I came up with:

    Big Dave’s Silent Bob

    Size on Disk: 70.9 KB
    Width: 89 pixels
    Height: 100 pixels
    Horizontal Resolution: 120 dpi
    Vertical Resolution: 120 dpi
    Bit Depth: 32
    Frame Count: 8

    Jeep Chic

    Size 28.0 KB
    Width: 111 pixels
    Height: 171 pixels
    Horizontal Resolution: 120 dpi
    Vertical Resolution: 120 dpi
    Bit Depth: 32
    Frame Count: 10

    So, while Silent Bob is smaller physically he is actually a larger file (more detail I suppose).

    The height and width and the frame count are the only things I see to be different.

    It's probably a rights issue. De me a favor: email me a copy of the picture to overkillzj@mallcrawlin.com and I'll see if it lets me use it. If it does, it's a rights issue I'll look into sometime during the week, but definately not a priority for me
