I would get rid of the double border, and leave the actual image the same. That way the wings are outside of the image. It would just look cool.

So are you saying no border at all?
I am not so sure I follow what you mean.

Drop the two black line border. Thats all, or keep one of them and change it to a dark blue.

Yeah the text is better now, I like it... although you might want to try "burning" it in a bit, making seem kinda like part of the flames(dark in the middle, light on the outside)... ? Hard to explain.

Well, I was experimenting and
I just wanted to get opinions on this.

Tell me what you think,
I am considering entering this one.
Rather than one of the other two.

The first one is 19kb. The angel one is 35kb and the fire one is 40kb. The max for this contest is 15kb per footer only :(.

Also - the angel one and the fire one combined becomes 300 by 80 and 76kb total, forum rules say 300 by 60 max at 15kb total.

( I think you're fine as long as the mods don't recognize it :lol: )

You're looking at the wrong one.
The ones I have attached are within the rules,
The ones linked are not.

And as far was the whole 300 x 80,
What are you talking about?
I just have them stacked in my sig.

In general, what are you talking about.

REEF·
July 2nd, 2005, 09:48 PM
Every single one except the attached fire one is over 15kb. The ones stacked are 40px height each, 2 of them make a total of 80 height. I was pointing out that the rules only allow 60px height total. Plus the fact that each of your footers (stacked ones) are way over the 15kb limit.

It's not that hard to understand, capice?

TheExile

The thing I didn't understand was how you were telling
me that my attached images are over the limit.
I was sure that when I made them that they met the rules like:
Can only be 300 x 40.
15 kb limit.
Only 2 submissions.

13.77 KB (14096 bytes) that is what the winged one reads
in the properties where I have it attached.

As a note I am only submitting,
The first 2 I posted in this thread.
Everything else is just for input from other users.

I only have them stacked in my sig,
That's not against the rules.

I don't think that you are looking at the right attached files.

Right, I'm saying everything besides this contest. Forget the contest. The 2 images you have stacked in the footer violates the rules.

http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=12

"Ensure footer's size is less than 15k."

The winged one is 35 kb. The fire one is 40 kb. 15KB is the max limit.

"Ensure your footer's dimensions do not exceed 300 pixels wide by 60 pixels tall (300x60)"

The 2 stacked together total up a height of 80 pixels, just look at it. The whole thing counts as one footer.

Ok. Now I understand.
If I had known that you weren't talking about the contest,
No questions would have been raised.

That all can be fixed of course.
Thanks for clarifying.

I think the jury should spare a special award for The reefster. He had many difficulties while reminding the contest rules to the participants..:)

Duh, I really should have got that.
I have a few friends in there.
Wish I was, design kids are pretty cool people,
So I will make the assumption that you are as well.
Haha.
