I've seen some people with Signiture images that rotate, as in one image changes to another after a period of seconds and so on.

I was wondering how you do that. I use GIMP.

Dunno how to do it in GIMP, but I find animation programs easier when you're working with simple rotations.

That's among the most unhelpful answers on the internets.

on GIMP, get all of the sigs that you want in the rotation, and put them on different layers. Duplicate each layer once, so you have two of each sig.

Save the image as .gif, and select "save as animation" then set the frames per second to 1.

Each sig will change every two seconds to the next on on the layer.

What? tongue.gif Animation programs are pretty easy. All you have to do is drag and drop

Or, one could use a web-based rotation script where as the viewer refreshes a page, another "random" SIGs in the rotation is displayed.

Wow. Things have changed around here.
This is my first post in a longooo time. It's good to be back.

EDIT: Google it.
