Just wondering how i would go about adding this animated gif :

To this sig :

I basically want the static to fit into that grey area on the left. The funky shaped one.

I'm guessing you used Photoshop to make these. Open the sig in PS, and make that grey area on the left a completly different color (one you don't have on your sig). Then save it using "Save for Web", select GIF, on the color table, select the color(s) that you made different (this color will become tranparent)[note: you may need to select different shades of this color from the color table], then click on the first little box on the bottom of the color table (it's a little square box that if you hover over reads "Maps selected color to Transparent"). If you did this correctly you should be able to see that left area tranparent.
Now you will need a program that makes animated GIF and just add the sig on top of the noise GIF you have and you're all done. Nice sig btw.

All i did was open both pictures up inside of Adobe Imageready. I found out the size of the sig5 image and changed the canvas of the static image to the same size. Dragged the sig5 image on top of the canvas and in all the 5 frames made sure it was centered on the top. Then I used the magic wand to highlight that grey box and press the delete key to get rid of its contents. Once that was done all I had to do was move the static images on each frame behind that box area to make it like it is now. Easy as cake! um or pie, whatever!
