          And now for somthing completly different......
          This concept started out this way

          unfortunatly 3d animation creates huge ass files(over 200k), at least at the level of technical knowlage I'm at right now.
          So, I had to go with this. I know, not really mainstream looking, but screw it. It was fun to make.

            WOW, these are looking awesome. Its going to be tough. I think instead of picking one winner, we should have a first, second and third place winner. I would hate to see the others not be used.

              Here is another entry from me. I think a first second and third place is a great idea, it would be damn hard to choose just one.

                You should definately render this in Flash MX, I think it will narrow down the size at least 75%.

                  THanks for the tip, I considered that. As far as I know though, flash isn't alowed in sigs....unless you are saying that converting it to a flash file then back to a gif will drop the size?

                    I don't think converting it back to animated gif will get the size a lot lower than it was originally...I think flash is the only logical way to keep down the size really low.

                    But as you said, flash isn't allowed, so I think you need to alter your concept therefore

                      THanks, concepts are always evolving in my mind(see second entry), now just to get my skills up there to match my imagination.

                              UMMMM one thing that should maybe be mentioned, they DO NOT co-locate. Unless I read it wrong on thier site. Here is a copy+paste right from thier front page.

                              DreamTank owns and operates it's own $9M data center in downtown Los Angeles with 192 strands of fiber into One Wilshire. We do not co-locate in someone else's data center.

                                Cyberage-Dave DID state however that the banners should mention co-locating;

                                Banner should have...

                                Thanks, have fun.

                                Sorry Jim, don't blush.
                                But its just a matter of changing text I guess.

                                  Yeah its no big deal to change text. (unless its been rastarized ) I guess it would be best to wait till Dave or Jim has a chance to respond, could be a typo.

                                          Hey Jim, is it co-locating? or NO co-locating? I saw on your site it says you do not co-locate, but Dave put that you do. Could you maybe clear that up.
                                          Thanks, Jeff

                                            LOL....we definately co-locate....

                                            what we mean is that we actually own our own data center we are not co-located in someones facility

                                            we are a bonified level three cert telco facility....

                                            192 strands of fiber that home run directly into the MDF through diverse pathway to One Wilshire (backbone) more than SBC, Qwest, AT&T....no shit!

                                            great questions.....the banners are looking great.

Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.
