Here's a question, what program are you using for these?  Gif Animator?  Once I saw the other Avatar's in their Animated Form, I was impressed and had to check out a program that I had once used before (Gif Animator).  But the result was a banner at the bottom of each animation. sad.gif

Anyways, I was wondering if you can increase the energy ball to illuminate as with burnsides flame.  And If possible, get those petals to fall.  (Any of you guys know the anime show of this anime character, I have no idea who it is, thought it looked cool so I decided to choose it)
If you have any spare time to do this it would be apreciated, and mind telling me what program you're usin'.  Thanks.  original.gif

---------------
Here's what I was thinking.  Use this for an example.  I had used Adobe Photoshop to darken the atmosphere within the picture.  And possibly as an animation increase the lighting.   blink.gif   If not, it was worth a shot.  Actually nevermind, do what you can.  My avatar is up for you to decide on.   thumbsup.gif   grin2.gif

Actually, I do have the programs necessary for an amazing gif animation.  tongue.gif  Corel Photo-Paint and Adobe Photoshop is just perfect grin2.gif

However, if you want a challenge with my Avatar, give it a go ahead.  Later on, we'll compare mine with yours. grin2.gif

Okay, I'm at a dead end.  How do I update my avatar using the animated version?  Where can I upload these so that I can use em?  I can use the help...Please  wink2.gif  original.gif

Thanks UA!! My Avatar is now officially awesome! And henceforth I shall sing the praises of the Universal One and The Barman to the four corners of the earth! (assuming that I can find four corners on a sphere)

Hey Barman and UniversalAbsurtity! You guys sure do some amazing stuff. I've been trying my hand at .gif's, but I really suck. sad.gif

I've been trying to make this scene look like its actually raining, and add words to it, (if you've seen Cowboy Bebop, this pic should look familiar), was wondering if you could help me out? Please? Wanted to add the words-  "...see you space cowboy". If you could I would be much happy!

The rain in your pic wouldn't be to hard to animate it's the ripples in the puddle that would be a challenge, your always going to have trouble animating a 3D image using the simple programs we use.

If you look at the animations myself and UA have done all the best ones in my opinion are 2D and kept simple, like Halo_Jones's one for example.

I'm afraid an image like that is out of my league, maybe UA would look at it for you, sorry I couldn't be of more help  dontgetit.gif
