Are you trying to give us epilepsy!??? :lol:

Depends if the site accepts animated gifs for avatars. ICrage's is...If you would like, link the pictures in this thread and I can make one the correct 100x100px size without the watermark :cool:

I think that's most of them

on the gif I made I ran the size as small as possible and the speed as slow as possible hoping it would help but this whole computer thing is beyond me

Just gotta resize them, compile em through a video editor, save as video and convert to gif with another thing...hold on

Oh and they're going in order from top to bottom

order isn't too important
I tried getting them in an order where they don't all look the same, kinda rotate between bikes facing left, right, numberplates, just make it look different you know '?


thanks, :)

Your camera is set on 16:9 and not 4:3 so I could only get 100x56 pixel ratio from them. (100px across and 56px vertically)

I threw a little dazzle filter on the last pic(the 220) at the end. Let me know if you want me to remove that :razz:

Size is 1.04mb, though and KDX rider only accepts maximum 68.50kb image which is extremely tiny(1.04mb = 1064kb). Julien or somebody will have to up the maximum accepted avatar size before you can use it.

EDIT...I tried rendering as basic quality .mpg then converting to .gif with only 5fps ...smallest I can make it is 134kb, still too big

I'll bump the size up a bit for ya. Don't want to go too large with avatar pics because it will affect page load times on any page that you post, but I'll do 200k for now and see how that works.

maybe its something we could tie into the level of support?

1 star, 100KB avatar, 2 stars 200 and so on ?

I'd happily point you in the direction of the free software you can use to make your own next time :cool:
