I was messing around tonight and stole your site logo and made it into a GIF file. I know this was somebodies artwork, and I won't use it for anything. Just wanted to show you how easily it can be done. These GIF files are only available in a 400 sizing so they may be a little smaller than your used to. This could also be redone even smaller to use for a smiley. Let Me know if you want me to make it another way.

Here is a smaller version for Smileys or Avatars! If you like you should be able to right click on them and save them on your computer for upload to this site. Enjoy!

It's pretty cool. I like it. We'll figure out some use for it here.

I'm going to ask you guys not to use the logo anywhere else though, especially any other forums.

I won't (and wouldn't) I already deleted it off my computer once I uploaded it. I still have it in my Photobucket though because if I delete it the logos will disappear above. :cool:

Its really easy. You have to take a picture like this and then edit the fire out of the picture. then save that as picture #1. The edit the original picture and remove half the fire save it as picture #2. Then save the original as #3. Then upload them to a GIF converter in order and it will just repeat the 3 images in order and it looks like its shooting fire. I wanted to make on of a RR doing a wheelie but have not had time yet. :stooges:

That would be me. Like Big John said, please refrain from using it outside this forum or altering the artwork.

The emerging tire smoke effect looks cool although the blipping reminds me of those chaotic xmas lights flashing on peoples houses during the holidays. I understand gif's are pretty small files. Is there a way to slow it down and make the smoke appear to fade in utilizing an extra frame or two?

I think the program online I used only allowed 4 still photos to be uploaded so in those 4 pictures you could modify how much smoke and fire were in each picture. I didn't spend over 5 minutes doing this. It was just a quick "lets see if this works" thing. It would be cool it you modified it to use on the top of this page.

I hope I didn't offend anyone by doing this. I didn't intend to steal or use anything without permission. Just goofing around on my computer and wanted to show the effect. Below is the link to the free program. Just upload you pictures and then download the file.
