Gif Avatars/Banners: LED displays.

[bengley]

I had a go at making an animated .GIF which closely resembles the on-board displays on most trains. Unfortunately it's not possible to use this as an avatar on this forum because of the filesize limit, but other forums have larger limits, and I'm not aware of any limit for hotlinked images in a signature.

I'm willing to make these for people, as long as I'm not flooded with requests.

Tell me the exact text you'd like in it, the dimensions of the image (banner or avatar), the colour of the text and how large you want the text to be in comparison with the area of the display.

Here's the one I made today:

HTML Codes.

No, it's made in photoshop by hand, not with some crappy internet site which puts an advertising watermark on it.

oooohhhh, just been having a fiddle with flash and came up with this. (Had to convert to .gif to upload).

Is it possible to upload flash movies instead of a picture ?(The thing above is 8.18kb as a flash movie - 476kb as a .gif) I think probably not.

In order to view a flash file, you need to load an application in the browser, which requires HTML which is blocked in forums.

I assume you're not replying to my post? No one owns HTML so you can't watermark it, If you check my link, there is no watermark, just a HTML code

never mind

You quoted that guy and said that they are made with HTML codes, when this is something completely different.
