hmmm

Is it a Duck if it doesn't look like one..

I think it only has to walk like a duck...

I like it.

In my opinion, a sig should be small and simple - and this fits both criteria.

It also leaves plenty of room for expansion or alteration in the future.

colors good?

yes animate it, that will be fun, make it walk like a duck or drop the sign as something is thrown over his head

i was thinking about making a duck fly past and drop a crap on him then he gets mad and has white on him then he flips the sign over and it says F**K or something would that be allowed?

Duck: I like the newer version. You could do a fw on that theme. Just have a ball whizz across and the little fella ducks. The throw in the one with the duck (and yes fuck is perfectly fine by me). If you based them all on the smae starting figure and threw in a sig rotator it could be quite good fun working out which one was on its way

I was messing around with the outline of the sign to get the colors good you guys think this is ok?

ok now i have problems

what happened after i saved in Image ready?

You need to save it with a matte color that is the average of the two background colors. I use R=43 G=3 B=3.

I just did that but still having probs

I think i need to delete the white like i did on frame 1

i can't see your sig!

"Trust" is a dirty word that comes only from such a liar but "respect" is something I will learn...if you have faith!!

I must say that all these little guys with pickets are driving me up the wall.

By the way, I really like Emps' idea. That's something you could look into for future sigs...

DB: isn't the average matte of the background R:40 G:04 B:04?

Nope: :FAQ:

Although I doubt you'd see much of a difference with a 40:4:4 matte...

[Edit: First time using the new FAQ graphic... screwed it up]

Hey waitaminit... I use R=44, G=04, B=04 for my sigs, and they work perfectly. It's a valid matte colour. Use it!

Not totally sure Skaarjj, but the way I figure it, from a screen cap, the bg colors are R=50 G=8 B=8 and R=36 G=0 B=0
Then add each color together and divide by 2. Comes out 43, 4, 4.
Another way to find it is fill 2 layers, each with one of the bg colors, and reduce the top layer to 50% opacity. Comes out the same.
Variations as slight as those mentioned would be very difficult to see without a subjective test.
