I mean seriously...People cant release their true sig designing skills when the yonly have 20kb of working space...I know theres like bandwidth or whatever and I dotn know anything about it so it must be hard, but is it possible to get atleast a little more in?

its 20KB because you shouldn't need more if you know anything about compression and how to save your file right.
big sigs aren't fair to people with crappy australian internet connections that limit them to 10gb/month
-
If you compress most images, they end up with crappy quality...

Yup, stupid Australian ISPs are bastards..we get crap limits ova here!
-
Well it was worth asking =/...
-

not if you do it right and with a decent program that can optimize the image without losing data
-
Really?..Can you suggest one?...A program like that could be of great use to me
-
gimp, photoshop....

you forgot south america

hmph...Photoshop makes the quality suck, It's what I use to make the sigs -_-;;
-
big signitures are kept to a limit because we're here to ....like...talk about stuff. On a forum. Not show off trend-whoring useless meaningless pointless shitty crappy space-taking hardcore pussy nigger bollocks when i'm trying to read what you twisted lifeless boring people who waste time in paintshop loving up the wind-blur tool yet somehow knowing feck all about built in compression techniques are posting on my bloody forums!

Yes I needed that...Although I see your view in this situation, IT TAKES MORE SKILL MAKING SIGS THAN COMPRESSING THEM..

I just compress the image into a png file, always works for me.

...
If you just want to compress something, just use IrfanView (http://irfanview.com).

-

Yeah, but .gif is so not trendy.

Luckily their meters fuck up and end up giving you 20GB+ in a month. Besides, don't forget the 56kers.

Only four more kilobytes to go! :)
I love Paint Shop Pro 7 and Animation Shop 3. I'm no uber graphics artists, but I can do what I want with those.
-
how in the hell do I seem to compress 109kb sigs (like the one below) into 18 nad 20 kb images, and not lose any quality what so ever?
-
Just thought I would interject.
You can change it to not view sigs aye?
So anyone with a slow connection should (logically) have that specific box checked.
And therefore, an extra 5-10kb per image that aren't even being loaded, aren't going to have any affect on slow connections.
:E
-
yes, but we shouldn't have to require those people to turn it off. Forums are meant for talking, not for huge signatures. As we proved in this thread, 20KB is enough for even the most aesthetically pleasting signature image
edit: original: 69KB
(http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h271/iG33k/Tagnatures/killzonesmudge.jpg)
new VV 8.59KB - and I could have done it a couple more times to increase the quality, but I don't think you see any significant difference between these two, if any.
edit2: all I did with the second one was open it in gimp, and save it again.
-
Depends how you save your file, and how you decrease the bytes of your sig.. My standart sigs are
25 kb to 72 kb, and I have not even cut their sizes down... and gimp is easy to do, but its also possible in photoshop, You just need to do it right! Just that you CAN'T do it, it doen't mean it is not possible....
-
Fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnee eeeeeeeeeeee
:F
-
Mmm, photoshop .gif compression. If you have photoshop, and the sig doesn't revolve around gradients, use gif.
-

use a loophole like a link to the sig, thats pretty stupid but if you really have to then go ahead.
-
if anyone believes a certain sig image can't be compressed to be under 20KB, give it to me and I'll show you that it can be done ;) (I'm not saying I'm going to convert images for lazy people. If that happens, the offer goes away)

I know it can be done, cause I do it all the time...Although I like the quality of my images to be high, so my images seem to hit 18kb and 20kb. I definately do not doubt that it can't be done.
