I dont know though, I will try to make some new badges with the colors of this site that are even (the hard part for me) and that are sharp .

thanks for your comments user added image

I know what you mean about using the site's colours. So now I think I'll attempt something 'sharp' that uses the site's colours.

, heheh yea.. i only heard that word once, which was on a forum when i posted my site. They described it with that spelling as needing balance and stuff... but your definately right on that one, i just looked it up and there is no such thing as anastetically, or anastetical and aesthetically's definition sounds on the dot user added image

.. Thanks JB and i will try to remember this next time, so i dont make the same mistake heh. Also, its just something about working on webdesign, but centering images just does not work for me... I have one idea which I will try, but its weird and I personally dont think its professional.. but we shall see. Ok, ttyl. I havent been able to do anything because i am juggling 20 things at once :p and will be for the next 6 months

By the way, whats a drongo?

Snich, I don't think that there will be any problems with you entering animated gif's (although I'm not the authority that decides these things user added image

), just watch the file size though - I don't think you want to go too much over 5 Kb mark for these badges.

, i learned a new thing today! Heheh, thanks JB. As for sinch, I have been reading over this message board and it was either in this thread or somewhere else that someone said that they used to have animated badges and it kinda "annoyed" the people. I dont think there are many problems, but you probably would have a better chance with a non-animated one user added image

. I am not 100% sure though, maybe SM would like one user added image

.. so you would technically have to wait for a responce from a moderator user added image

No prob at all. I can get much better quality with no anims anyways. I'll come up with something. I hope everyone had a great weekend!
