This is just a heads up for those layout designers. my site lacks sports layouts for football and nba players. So if any of you are having a hardtime figuring out what subject base to design on, there you go... I need actual players, not just teams.
I'll be ready to buy at the end of the month. :biggrin:

I'm making a pack of 15-20 NBA + NFL player layouts.
Here is a example of one of the network banners; [included in the pack will be the large animated one; and the plainer one... incase it takes lots of banwidth/space]

It's just a simple animation though. lol

I know you are going to supply a plainer image mawt, but wow, that animated one is 1,176,454 bytes. That's insane. My latest layout background is only 73657 bytes. Over 1 million bytes smaller in size than just the extended network of that layout you have given as an example.
Which means if someone was to use your layouts with animated banners they would have a bandwidth size/bill 15x more than mine. (Not even including backgrounds, so it would actually be more than 15x)
I'm not meaning at all to trash you, I'm just saying you'll really have to decrease the file size. The animation does look good though, nice and simple but effective, not any annoying flashing.

you cant possibly have a 15MB banner of the web...
That'd mean waiting about 1min 30 sec+ for the image to load and that would be if you had T1/cable/1.5mb broadband! Not taking in to account that the web server may be slow.

It took like- a minute waiting for my big ones to load. lmfao.
That'd be nuts waiting for a 15MB one...
And yeah david- I don't even know why it's so freekin huge. It's not like it's very complex.

I use photoshop elements 3, and i did it frame by frame, and used some weird little animating thingy that just sticks the frames together.
I think it's like 21 frames? or something like that.
