new sig, problems

[secretx]

this sig i made looks low-quality. it looks fine in PSD format, but when i save for web, it becomes extremely low quality. the top 1 is the original, 2nd is blur 2x, 3rd is sharpen 2x:







any suggestions?

[EDGE]

the colors don't go together...the font is pretty kool...

[secretx]

maybe, but what i really need is how to fix the low-quality prob im having. ill work on the font.

[Steve]

photoshop?

[secretx]

ja

[EDGE]

o yeh..also..take the sharpening off...doesn't look right

[KILLAR_KI]

when u save for web, make sure ur colors are at 256 that sometimes could be the problem

[secretx]

yeah, i checked for that, but it was on 256 colors.

[Steve]

why is it a .php file?

[secretx]

cause my host is retarded

but my real host is still down, so im using sig-x.com, and they let u upload gif but u can only access it by php. but maybe thats the problem, so ill upload it to domaindlx. but im at school right now so i cant really do that right now.

[Steve]

u not save as jpg?

[secretx]

never tried...

[Steve]

try lol

[Bustin]

I don't suggest saving that sig as .jpg it will cause the colors to run, that type of sig you will have to use .png or stick with a .gif

for a .gif when you save it make sure it is saved as 37-256 colors
