fox mulder Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 We have made this area as we have seen many people who are involved in making their own websites based on their favourite guests, and that enjoy being creative with their own forum avatars and Live Journal icons. Eventually we would like to have a competition to get everyone involved in, and that will come soon, but for now we will just give a small example of what we'd like this area to be about: Avatars 64x64 Forum Size - Simple Static Design 100x100 Live Journal Size - Simple Static Design 64x64 Forum Size - Moving Desktop Backgrounds Preview Size Real Sizes Are - 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768, and 1280x1024 depending on your monitor size and preference. We'd like to think that everyone will contribute with their hints and tips on what programs they use, and how to create particular effects etc. Everyone has different knowledge so it would be great if you could all share what you know!

Smaug Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 Now this is where I get the peverted pleasure of throwing a spanner in the works....mwahahaha fox mulder forgot to mention one thing. All the avs you see on this forum are MASSIVE. Really high graphics with fancy moving words. They would not work on any other forum. Fine, have a 100x100 moving pic for LJ, but if it is over 40k in size it wont work! On another forum the size if 45x45 and only 5k! So the art of av making is small effective and good looking. It doesn't matter if you have it hosted some where, most forums wont allow a hosted av over 40k. It's got something to do with the speed a site loads up. That's why SM have taken off the "upload the av" bit I think (please correct me if I am wrong) because the majority of people have these massive avs and it would crush their servers! So next time you make an av that moves, optimize it! And think of the poor unfortunate people with slow connections and Dial Up! Yes I know that optimising wrecks the quality! But thats life! Work out a way to make an av with the same impact but smaller! *leaves before she is pelted with rotten tomatoes and such stuff* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators DavidB Posted July 10, 2004 Moderators Share Posted July 10, 2004 lol I don't think it counts as a spanner in the works, it's good to share what u know so that everyone understands a bit more I won't be pelting ya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeper Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 (edited) nope - not if they're connected to another business anyway, otherwise, not sure. and this isn't really a suitable section - try the FAQ's next time...
