Ahem~
 

So I just spent the better part of an hour fiddling with a new GIF animator program I downloaded.


I finally get a good, coherent idea for something to make and I set-to-it with full abandon. Everything's going well, and I finish and behold my new creation.


It turned out much better than I could have hoped for a first attempt~





But then, I try to upload it to FF to use as a siggy.


Turns out that it's a bit too big to use because of the file size limitations....

too big by 150kb.....

I then go online and try to look for ways to reduce the GIF file size. To my pleasant surprise, there are actually a few things I can do to reduce it.

I then carry-out these steps, reducing color-quality, taking out unnecessary frames, lowering image-size. I was pretty sure it'd fit now...


I try to upload it, and it's too big by 10kb....

-END-

go to www.tinypic.com, upload it, get code for the image so you can post it in forums, paste the code in your post/siggey.

Does that help a bit?

Nah...even linking to other sites, the file itself has to meet size requirements.


Thanks anyway x__x

no problem =D never heard of this problem before =O

How big is it? o-o imageshack no work?

about 200-400kb...

I'm sure image shack can host that. or Photobucket.

I'm such a forum-noob >.>

I was trying to direct-host it here despite the size-limit. :3

LMAOOOOOOOO!!

Nice!!!!

Hmm, I actually made a better one...

problem is, it exceeds image-shacks size limit...oh wellz :3
