Flamesterart - FLAMESTERART - 07-26-2010
Hi, I am Flamesterart, and this is my intro thread, ( though it is not my first thread on this site, that would be super mario band stage, which, due to an argument between other members on it, was moved to the groan zone. ) I am fourteen, and I am working my way towards being an artist. I made my own signature, which is just below this text block.
RE: Flamesterart - Vipershark - 07-26-2010
Since we're outside of the Groan Zone, allow me to give you some legitimate help:
1. Your signature is literally edits and pictures pasted onto a canvas, and then saved as a jpeg. This is your first problem. Always save sprites or any other type of art as a png. Saving something as a jpeg and then trying to resave it as a png WILL NOT WORK. If you save it as a jpeg, it's ruined.
2. Stop hosting things on Icanhascheezburger. Use http://www.photobucket.com for hosting your images.
RE: Flamesterart - FLAMESTERART - 07-26-2010
1. i saved my signature as a png, i dont know why it says it is a jpg,
2. i'm working on that, but my laptop is having internet problems and recently would not load photobucket, it said 404 page not found, so i did what i could.
RE: Flamesterart - GrooveMan.exe - 07-26-2010
then www.imageshack.us or www.tinypic.com
It seems the image uploading serive that you're using is auto-converting the file type to .jpg AND adding a watermark; which is unbearably shitty.
RE: Flamesterart - FLAMESTERART - 07-26-2010
plus, i made the large images of the characters look that way by saving those individually as png, and then making copies in different filetypes.
RE: Flamesterart - Vipershark - 07-26-2010
It does that because icanhascheezeburger is retarded and converts pictures to jpeg. It's not supposed to be used as an image hoster.
If photobucket won't work, rehost it on http://www.tinypic.com
RE: Flamesterart - FLAMESTERART - 07-26-2010
thank you for the image shack link, it is loading the website, i think it will work, i will redo the uploading of my signature and oother photos using it. thanks.

RE: Flamesterart - FLAMESTERART - 07-26-2010
i'm working on a new one, i just made this one, so it may be a week or two before i can get to replacing it. thanks for the advice vipershark.

RE: Flamesterart - Gwen - 07-26-2010
How does it take you a whole 2 weeks to change that...

Very helpful stuff.
RE: Flamesterart - Vipershark - 07-26-2010
that thread is closed so I might as well post it here
lunyka, you might want to reword some of those
at least half of the sentences on that post start with the word now
RE: Flamesterart - Maxpphire - 07-26-2010
I know. I'll get around to that eventually. At least the important basic info is in there for now.
RE: Flamesterart - FLAMESTERART - 07-26-2010
the pipe took me so long to make because i had to make it pixel by pixel, and the signature will take awhile to remake because i still have no idea what i am gonna do for it. ( I am going to make a whole new one. ) plus i have to make sure that idea isnt overly big, like when i changed image hosting sites about half an hour ago, my sig doubled in size and i had to shrink it.
