Images in signatures must also be no larger than 500 pixels wide X 90 pixels high.

I'd love a sig done by you? can i PM you the details??
nsb823, you might have come to my rescue.
I've had it in mind for a while, but haven't been able to pursue this idea:
Not one banner = 500w x 90h
more like 5-6 of them = 80w x 80h
Instead of an animation, the effect being that each of the 5 is slightly modified,
with left hand one [#1] and right hand one [#5] pretty close to being the same image.
The image(s) would be views of an old CRT monitor & keyboard with hands (perhaps a profile).
Monitor displaying type, most likely. As taken by camera-view slightly behind
but left or right of the user's shoulders.
Image [#1] = slightly foggy
Image [#2] = slight camera angle shift, slightly foggier
Image [#3] = maybe a closeup of [#2] but the most obscurred by fog
Image [#4] = camera angle shift to opposite side, but same as [#2] less fog than any of them.
Image [#5] = slightly foggy again, camera angle opposite [#1]
Kinda like a freeze-frame animation progression that tells "my story".
Sometimes I can see the answers, sometimes I cain't ...
I was thinking:
If the colors were fairly bright at full intensity (maybe even using an impression of that dang
default "bliss" wallpaper in winXP) ...
and some kinda text message gesturing (a bunch of tiny chicken scratchin' centered on it = 60% vertical height, maybe 50% horizontal yellow background, black border perhaps) ...
it might lend itself well to hue manipulation
as one technique to enhance the effect of the "phawgg" as it rolls in and obscures things.
Like Grinler said:Cool..im sure after people see your work they will be bugging you
Make it a low-priority if at all, though. I have. Simple ideas tend to require complex details just
to achieve the appearence of simplicity, I've found over a lifetime of doing graphics "the hard way".
With a pencil or pen on paper. Now, inching ever-closer to digitally doing the thumbnail sketchs
and such, I'm like an old dawgg learning new tricks ... less patient than I once might have been,
but still patiently re-defining "the hard way".
