help with avatar...

[870621345]

ok I made this and I was wondering if there is any way I can get it under 6 kb's or whatever the EoFF limit is....

[Doomgaze]

In a word, no. There's just too many frames.

[870621345]

so how many frames would be enough....becaue I took it from 20 frames to 8 frames and I could probobly make it smaller.....

[Shoeberto]

If possible, lower the image quality of the frames. That could help lower file size.

[870621345]

well, I put it to 32 colors, and it was too big so i tries 16 then 7 then 3 and all were to BIG!!!! So I guess I will have to save my animated avatar making for bords with limits that aren't really hard to deal with

Pssh, I've had avatars here before that had 20 or so frames while still fitting the limit They might still appear in my sig randomly, in fact, if you hit refresh a few times in the browser window Although some of the sig ones are higher quality versions of what I used to use as an avatar so may not fit under the avatar limit any more.

so do you think you can help me get mine under 6 kb's or is it hopless?

[crono_logical]

5 K I guess I can have a look

EDIT: 8 colours works Though it's pretty crap quality There's too much detail across all the frames and change between frames, so unless you're prepared to hand-edit each frame to try and optimise what the compression algorithms can do, that's what you're stuck with

5 K I guess I can have a look

awesome

[crono_logical]

I also seem to have broken the frame timing, but that doesn't matter if it's so bad looking anyway

well thank you for oyur help, I will try to get some hard-core work in on it tonight and hopefully come out with somthing that looks decent but again thank you for your help....
