Well, that's my new sig. I spent about the last 5 hours twiddling around with different things to get it the way I wanted. The animation took hella long to figure out what to do (I havn't used ImageReady in ages )

So, how does the general population like it?

I say fix the "REBIRTH OF A GOD" text so it's not so blurry/bunched together. Probably besed to use a pixel-type-font with no antialias for that.

Sephiroth signature that doesn't suck, who knew.

Well the animation doesn't seem to loop naturally.
Other than that, it looks great. I don't have any other crits. Good job.

The star loop on the side you probably need to fix and you could probably get away with less filesize if you split the animated part and the non-animated part horizontally but that'd be extra coding too.

KH Seph though, and it doesn't look that bad really, though it does look like it has a bit much height, like double the height I'm used to for sigs like that. But overall, it's nice.

As stated, you don't want to put anti-aliasing on the pixel font. Just sent the font smoothing to "none"

The sparkles look okay, but yes, the animation is a bit off. I'd probably not have quite as many sparkles either....

And 104.42 KB is quite big for being a sig, besides it could be little "shorter" in lenght.

And besides for the strange way the animation loops, it looks nice. But maybe you're better off without thoose sparkles...

Sparkles = Useless. They take away from the overall niftiness of the avatar.

And the small font just has some problems with the word "God", other than that it's pretty readable...

Hmmm, alrighty. I'll make it shorter height-wise, and I"ll work on making the sparkles smoother. I'll try to reduce the filesize, too.

Thanks for all the input!

EDIT: Antialiasing removed on text, and it's shorter and the sparkles loop smoother. If you guys suggest anything else, feel free to post them. I'd be happy to change things around!

The text still doesn't look right?

What font are you using?

I recommend using something like Silkscreen for that....

Yeah, I didn't meen just remove the anti-alias. Use a font designed for about that size, like Silkscreen.

I initially thought the font used was Silkscreen, but now I'm not so sure.

Silkscreen is pretty much the best font for that. I'm sure that there are other "pixel fonts" but Silkscreen is the one I like the best. (Note: Would like to know if there are any more that are good, if anybody knows....)

But yeah, don't use any AA on it. The setting MUST be "None" (not Sharp, Crisp, Strong or Smooth)

Bleh, that's just the way the text is. It does look a little odd, but oh well :/

Yeah, it tends to do that. I usually adjust the spacing myself, to make it more even. *points at my avatar*

Yeah, that looks a lot better, although as stated it is oddly spaced. Not sure why though.... *shrugs*

But yes, it looks a lot better now it's clearer and with no AA.
