Will give it a go

@TheSwede
EDIT: Here you go, wasn't sure exactly what theme to be going for did a mix. If these isn't the style then give me some direction to work with.

Those looks great, thank you !

If you could get one with Aloy and Rost together, and possible a machine (but not necessary) then that would be great as well !

Aloy is the female main character and Rost is the person that took care of her, acting like her Father.

I like this one I found but unfortunatelly it is a youtube picture. Not sure if you can do something similar though. Linky to youtube

I have not revisited it yet, any tips on getting your collection prepped, i.e. what software your using then 1) resize image 2) width doesnt need to be 400 3) to keep file size down do...

Like I would normally use GIMP to change images then compress them to jpeg or whatever. When it comes to restrictive sigs you can normally use an apps built in feature to get clinical results - I have not used image editing tools for a long time.

Use whatever to resize, MSPaint works.

A signature may contain one or more images but they must fit within a box with maximum dimensions of 400 x 75 pixels (width x height) and with a maximum (combined) file size of 20k. Images containing mostly very large words or animated .gifs will not be permitted. You may also add 1 consecutive lines of normal or smaller text directly above or underneath the image with no spaces inbetween image and text. If no images are used then up to 4 consecutive lines of normal or smaller text is permitted. Do not pad out your text lines with blanks lines. A line of text is defined as having a maximum length of 400 pixels.

Clinical results? For what? Their file size?

But yes, GIMP is free and will allow you to make a decent Sig.

If you upload them to the sigrotor site it does it automatically for you to comply with the forum rules.

Oh right, lol shows you how long back I bothered with decent forum sigs! I think I had paint shop pro 6 or something and you could get fancy but before you knew it you had sunk 3 hours into sig art. lol.

ah there we go you got it working! You just need to upload some sigs now in the control panel.

I use photoshop for all mine and always make them 400 x 75.

Its finding images that scale well now, then chopping them up like you say with PS or GIMP.

Just to let people know, the new site for rotating signatures is NEARLY live thanks too @visibleman !

the new sig rotor website is https://sigrotor.ml

Just a nudge for you few if you make yourself an account on the new website I'll get your images transferred over.

@Lethal` @secretspy @SideWinder @ThundyCat @David Flett

EDIT 1: as of 10/02/2021 10:35 I haven't heard back from any of you. The URL sigs.ocukrogues.ml/ocukrogues.ml won't be live from 12AM today. I have a copy of your signatures if you do require them. You can sign up to the new site above or I can do it for you if you let me know.

EDIT 2: The domain is now in-active. Please use https://sigrotor.ml/

Ah I missed the tag earlier in the week.

I've just created an account. My username on the site is Lethal (minus the .). Could you transfer my sig please?

Hey bud. Your URL is in your control panel, signatures have been moved over to the new domain.

You just need to update your signature URL now on here.

You welcome and thank you.

Couldn't have done it without the help of someone else on here.

Hi all you talented people

I have swapped my car so would really appreciate a new sig

I would like to incorporate a pic of my new motor

https://scontent-lhr8-1.xx.fbcdn.ne...=712ad7089585a58f4eec0f164bec44be&oe=60796997

also the Ferrari logo

https://tonimarino.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Ferrari-Logo-2.png

and I suppose I out to include the LFC badge (even though we are crap)

with or without the lettering , whichever looks best

others in different colours are available on web and fine

all help is appreciated, always amazed at the amazing work some of you do for us

Thanks

This one was hard to do! If you don't like it just say will go back to try something else or if there's changes let me know. I couldn't get it to "blend" but once you get it if you take some photos of like the one in your current sig there will be much better results!

I tried!

Akagi · 19 Mar 2021 at 11:03

You can use the perspective tools in PS to make the Fezza logo look flat on the side of the car

I'll try making one later.
