Save as PNG. JPEG sucks.:mellow:

[dr lameos]

you reckon? I couldn't see any difference, or would it fix the gif issue?

[Etaphreven]

I know that if I save as PNG from Photoshop, instead of JPG, there's a MAJOR quality difference.

[Epholl]

PNGs compression causes no quality loss on the image, JPG compression does.

And if you want to get the iamge better looking, do not add it to the already animated image, but create a new one. The gif is limited to 256 colors only and your already indexed image did not have enough different colors for the new frame, so it looked so bad. After you create a new image, the color palette for it will be different. (balanced better)

well this is it directly from the xcf to the png


And I can't see any difference between it and the jpg
EDIT:
And thanks for the gif advice

The text looks kinda blurred in the resized version.

Yeah, 'tis unavoidable. It's too tall, so I have to size it way down.

Cursed size limits...

What do you think of it otherwise?

[Etaphreven]

There's still 15px left! *cries*

Anyway. I like it mucho:P. Gotta say I haven't seen that sig style yet. Though -- but this is probably just me -- I'd love to see the ship's colour match with the background. I think it's something specific to me... just don't like seeing together colours that are not supposed to be.

[Orin]

Well, the original coloring of the Sekhmet is like a gunmetal blue. I really like the gold Anubis/Nephthys coloring more.

When it was the old color, it matched the background pretty well, but it was really boring looking. I also tried making the BG a gold color, but it just was too... gold-y?

Thanks though.

I really like it orin, thought the people don't look very order-ish, they seem a bit casually dressed?
