Like I promised, I tried my best but 6 models squeezed into 300px height and 6 animations squeezed into 300KB?
No way I could do it, sorry.
You have to think of something simpler, Demonicow, or I'll hate to make it a still signature without animaion, but that's Saturos resort.
*looking at the next post* Or Vephriels.

So, please, think of something less crowded or I can't help you out.

Sure you're not thinking about Vephriel?

I also exist on DeviantArt.

alright then what about two animations my toon's idle animation where he breathes and shakes his head and the idle animation of my wolf with direwolfskinlightblue
and could you include some text where it shows the name of me and my pet under the animation?

btw my pets name is Demonfang and mine is Demonicow of course and my armory link is
http://us.wowarmory.com/character-sheet ... =Demonicow

The desired animation is rather big and, believe ot or not, squeezing it into the forums limits make sit look awful.
I don't know why this headshake is so much bigger than a walk.

Look at it and tell me you hate it, just like I do.

It's so small and still I hat to cut down in color and quality...
Let me try to whip something up for you... tomorrow! *yawn*

thank you very much but can you use the part of the animation where the wolf shakes his head and face him a lil closer so you can see the other side of its face and can you put an & symbol between Demonicow and Demonfang and have the text a ltlle lower and show the guild tabard? btw i love the text too so keep the same styling :)

The guild tabard might be a problem, as the current MV seems to have a bug there and won't display them properly. All I can get right now are the grey tabards that are shown when you're not in a guild.

Like I said, I'll see what I can do to make you a signature in better quality.

The problem with the animations is, they are not one animation where you use a part of it, they are all seperate animations. As you can see in the first try I posted, the Tauren is constantly shaking his head with no idle animation. That is, why I prefer the walking or running animation, as you can create a loop that still will look natural.

So, now I got to hurry off to work, I'll be on it later today.

Yes, you begin to be a bother, Demonicow...
It would really help if you would be clear right from the beginning if you had the desired image already in mind.
Today, it's to late so maybe I'll make another one tomorrow.

You know, just because some people offer to make stuff for the rest of the community, it doesn't mean it is no effort at all or not consuming time.
We do that because we're nice people. Please keep that in mind when requesting one image after another...

OK, Lonejacobs, first of all, this is a phpbb based forum, so HTML-code won't work.
In the forum, you can only use bb-code, more or less the stuff you see on top of your edit window, like quoting or text styles.

If you want to use an image, it will have to look like this:

Code: Select all

[img]http://www.wow-europe.com/shared/wow-com/images/news/2010-02/forthehorde-wp.jpg[/img]
It will get you this result:
]Image

Now, before I start working on your signature, I need to know if you had any special animations or picture in mind.
If so, please tell me as accurate as possible, what you want. It will help me create something that you'll like.

I'm not offended, but try to imagine this:
Because you are a nice person, you decide to knit sweaters for your neighbors. One of them comes to your door, asking you for a sweater because he's freezing.
When you show him the sweater, he'll tell you he doesn't like green but loves blue.
You knit another sweater.
"Arms could be a bit longer, please."
You knit another sweater.
"Oh, very nice but... Can't I have a white heart on the chest?"
You knit another sweater.

How many times will you knit a sweater, before you tell your neighbor that he can freeze to death, as far as it concerns you? ;)

The whole animated image thing is not editable. I, most of the times, have to do it from scratch, if you want something changed.
That is, what's so annoying.

Image
Anyway, I really hope I got it right this time. I guess, I have all your "wishes" specified in your picture implemented. Or at least, I hope so...
