I'm sorry community, I take full blame for this.

Thanks mods for this. Sometimes the sexual content is too much in avatars. I hope they take notice.

How do you deal with gifs like that? I know there are websites that reduce the color of gifs and stuff but they all turn out either ugly or above the size limit. You're sigs are something else though, they look great and aren't above the size limit, how do you manage that?

Thank God. I mean seriously, I contemplated making a similar thread for months, but didn't wanna piss any people off. I have to admit, as someone who spends all day in the library (doing a phd) and has vgc as the only website to procrastinate, most people's sigs and avis are making me incredibly uncomfortable. I have blocked them at home, but I can't at uni.

No offence to anyone, but honeslty, I feel like a perv every time I use this site. I find the amount of cleveage, exploding boobs and dancing asses we see here completely inappropriate for a working environment.

Needless to say, if anyone thinks that my sig is crossing the line, please to tell me, so that I can remove it.

Edit: same goes with fetishes. I know some people like seeing women eating food (no offense to the particular user) or other similar things, but I still don't feel comfortable someone thinking I have a food fetish. You can take something completely innocent as feet and make it awkward by worhsipping in your avatar and signature. Don't know where the line is supposed to be drawn, but I just wanted to say that I find it inappropriate and unncessary.

Its some tricks I learnt over the years loll, With Photoshop that is!

Gifs are made out of 256 colors and the gifs that turn out the best are the ones with:

1) Least amount of shading
2) The ones with solid colors
3) The ones with bright colors
4) Finding a balance between how many colors to use vs resolution (Cause photoshop allows you to choose how many and which colors you want but it does do a good job of determining the best colors by itself. Cause remember, more colors and/or high resolution = more space)
5) Keep it under 60 frames in total for 1.5mb

And the other thing I do is called Frame Delay. What most videos and gifs do is have multiple frames of the samething to pad out the animation so it doesn't go by freakishly fast but when you add frames to a gif, it = more space! But using frame delay on the other hand basically accomplishes the same thing without taking up any space. So I basically delete the duplicate frames (which there are usually a lot of) and just add in frame delay to have the exact same effect!

Anyway, hopefully that explained it loll. I do a few more things but thats the main jist of it. Oh and thanks for the compliment! I can make a whole thread on how to make the best gifs but it will probably be too boring for people

So... the intent of my avatar is to get people sexually aroused. Am I going to be banned?

I feel really bad for Carl now. Why are you guys doing this to him?

Peh-Zeus was right about Smeags being the reincarnation of MBP. The horror!

Topless women isn't automatically sexual. :DDDDD And we never get those avatars, instead we get the clothed women.

I know right! Some of these mods are soo sexist!

I can assure you that my avatar is in no way sexual. Unless of course you have a sick fetish for tragedies.
