| GIF 128 Dithered with 256 colors should be the best setting. Did you intend to give that grainy effect on the still image or...? Was just wondering if there isn't a clearer image ^^ It's a pretty cool design though! |

| No id on't want the grainy effect on the still part of the image... thats what happens when i save it as gif with 256 colors. Thats why i'm asking for help. xD I don't know how ot save a animated signature to keep the still part looking good. |

| Reduce the frames and you should have full HQ pictures never change these settings and you'll get a grainy gif and that's not good at all D: |

| Yeah... i don't get why there hasn't been some new format for higher quality animated images without a huge file size. >< |

| Hmm... that's odd. I never have that problem and I've had ones with like 50-60 frames. This is my usual setting: |

| I think the problem is that you can only save with 256 colors and I always forget to keep that in mind when i'm making sigs/avatars that are also animated. -_- So the more colors it has the more distorted it'll be. |
