Well, if at all possible I would like it to maintain the same size, but I realize it's probably too large by Mal standards. I suppose as long as the head isn't cut off too much, it would work.

Ooh nice, that looks awesome! One more quick question though, do you know how I can align it on my signature so it looks like this?

(img) url (/ img)

Type alignment isn't screw include them in the same alignment and it will work just fine if you align one left and one right you're going to get them at the respective bounds.
Also with cropping a tinkering came up with the below image and pasted 3 times to show you can put them next to each other any position you want I did include a space between them though you can get them touching by excluding it. I can redo the signature at the bottom if you like it and want to use how I cut it I just didn't bother with the initial showing because it's extra work and if you weren't going to use it I didn't want to put in that effort. The combined size is the absolute maximum MAL allows 600x150 (When they're touching) any extra space will obviously make the two of them larger, I don't know how that's viewed in accordance to MAL rules nor do I particular care just mentioning it as a disclaimer if you include spaces and something happens to you though judging by other signatures it seems like it'd be okay to have text or space extending the length of the signature.

I had to cut out a lot of frames since the original size is pretty big:

Btw this GIF is 300 x 170. You're going to have to reduce the height a bit if you want to make it a forum sig.

Smaller size, reduced color palette and/or less frames will all reduce it's size.

No prob also just the pure resize, didn't know where you wanted to take from be it cutting frames or qualiity to shrink it, but it definitely needed the size reduction to fit MAL requirements so it's the required 150 px tall which cut down some of the size so you can work from there. Going through it it looks like you can atleast cut out every other frame to help with it's size without affecting the image too terribly much just speeding up the animation a bit but from there I'd prolly recommend seeing how it looks with slightly smaller color palette.

i don't know much about the color palette option, so i'll have to mess around with it some. i tried resizing multiple times on another gif but it didn't little if anything to the size, maybe the coloring is where it's at

My current signature has the list of animes that I watched on 2/21/18, but does not update with any recent watches or list additions. I am sure I screwed it up somehow.
I just went to My signature under the edit proflie and deleted the signature code, but when I submit it , the code reappears in the box and the signature is still the old one.

Any suggestions?


I think I might have the same problem/glitch. (This thread is for signature design, but maybe signature is close enough?) I tried choosing only Recent Anime instead of Anime & Manga, and also increased the number of entries from 3 to 6, but nothing changed. However, the new version showed up just fine when my friend checked it on the forums.

Answer: It looks like the problem was just in my browser's cache: an old version of the image had been saved on my computer, and my browser didn't notice it should be re-downloaded because the name hasn't changed. It should work fine on another device, and I believe it should fix itself if you just clear the cache.

// That signature code you deleted is only made for attaching your signature on other forums than MAL. Editing it should not change your signature at all.

Yeah I had the same problem. Hopefully I found out your post to confirm this !

Also how did you managed to increase the number of entries ? I'm sure that yesterday I saw the parameter, but I can't find it today ! :'(

Edit:
Okey it's because I set the image type as "Custom - ..."
I found this topic that was pretty useful too https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=72375

However my signature is still blank !!!

are you using .jpg or .png files? .png are higher quality (but take up more file space).

i normally save them as .png but after exporting out, it still look slightly blurry .. >>

i saw others work that would look super high res like


but whenever i tried to export, it looks kinda blurry >> here's an example:


i was wondering if is there actually a way to fix it? i tried to export in save for web as well but it didn't seem to work ;-;

They'll have to have a few file resizes, but what do you think?
