Animations the size of a signature are hard to make and keep a decent file size. I'd suggest using images that have a low color depth (like 256 colors), because this will help with the file size. Also, the more frames you have, the bigger it'll be. Use as few frames as possible to make the animation.
When you save, there's the option box that says "animation quality vs. output size". Try choosing a lower quality on the slider bar, which should give you a smaller file size.
Well, sometimes there's just no way to get an animation down to the right size so that it's usable. I've run into that problem myself, where the image size was huge even though I did all I could to shrink it. Sorry I couldn't help you any more than that.
I am trying to make a sig in photodraw for the first time...
I always work in paint shop pro...
can anyone tell me how to cut the image arround to get a transparent background?
i think i no...... first u have to make sure that the font is a seperate layer on the pic so if u right clicked on the font and pressed cut then the font would be the only thing to go away, then u go to the top and click on layers and go down to properties, then go to opacity and put it to about fifty or wutever u think is good..... and i have no idea how to make the font thats came with the pic into layers cause i always paste stuff on the pic so its alredy a new layer.
