Me too, so what settings are you using to save it?
Everytime I make one and upload it to my gallery the software compression on this site is not able to understand the multi frame format and actually increases the file size by atleast 5 times "often more". I even created a thread a few weeks ago about it and that's what Steve told me it was anyway.

Seems like I have seen that mushroom cloud image some where before????

I wouldn't say it sux.
Blows maybe.
But not sux.
J/K

Seriously thou, it's of aight... Kinda.
I'm sure he will like it and be estatic with it.

Think my problem with it is there is no point of focus. Nothing pulls my eye to any point of the image. So I find myself jumping all over it and not really seeing any of it.

Can you maybe use the mushroom cloud as a back ground, then put him and the dog tags centered at aboout 1/3 of the width on each side of the image?

In ImageReady....I first "optimize" the image...then save it as a *.gif

I agree with Matt....there really is not an obvious focal point in the image....so my eye tends to wander the whole thing....I am not sure what program you are using....but I am sure that it has "opacity" settings....I would play around with these to try and get the three images to blend together better....then add some flare:

Matt - Bill,

It's not a signature, it's a banner for his message forum. He gave me the picture of him with the rifle and told me to do something with it.....that's it.

I need to resize it, and add the text he wants, then I am done. Anything else you guys would think of doing? I am up for any ideas, he wont really give me any. Thanks for the input.

Our sigs are basically banners too.

The image as a whole is still one big focal point. There is still just to much going on at once to beable to appreciate any of the images in the banner and becasue the colors are so dramtaic in difference and they dont blend it's difficult to appreciate the image as a whole.
I really dont know how you worked on it I have stared at it for about 2 mins trying to think of what I would do and it gave me a headache trying to make my eyes focus on the details and not jump around.

Well I've already started using it but here is my new sig.



I've got an idea for another one but it's going to require about 72 layers (+/- 1 or 2.)

I'm thinking the file size of that one might be a little big. So trying to figure out how to get the same efect with out hundreds of layers.
