Down to file size, the number of colours was reduced to fit

[TVR IS KING]

ah ok, i decided my tvr avatar hadnt worked out like i hoped it would, so im back to my rally one. im currently creating a carrera gt slideshow, it will be here eventually for you to make. lol.

[TVR IS KING]

ok ive done it, but its big and its winrard, it would probly take a while to post all the pics.. id rather not.
if anyone has msn messenger i could send it to them over that..any takers? please?

[Matra et Alpine]

tvr, if it takes too long to post the pics then in all likelihood it will create a file too large to use as an avatar How many images are you wanting ???

[TVR IS KING]

its not that its just that i hav slow internet. lol. 2 pics

[TVR IS KING]

ahh not 2, 7

and of course the OTHER reason was I'd set the target file size too small - a confusion brought about with the new forum changes ops:

Here's a "better" one

bummer about 'slow' internet, but that would affect any sharing via msn too

Peter do you use Imageready?

AnimationShop, it's many inputs types, automatic management for compression, colour and culling make it very easy to use for this task.

[Forever92]

Oh... How do you keep the image clear but the file size down then? It seemed pretty limited compared to Imageready IMO.

which image ?
The first one for TVR IS KING I'd setup the size to a different target user class on UCP. It got reduced to 31 colours ! byt a tiny file. The newer one posted has 256 colours.

For animation and avatars on UCP in this thread they get done by me coz it's 3 mouse button clicks. Any more and I'd not be able to do as many

Can someone please resize this for me?
Thanks.
