Well it has to be a gif to be tranparent and to be animated...It might be too big so you will have to tweak it..I haven't made one yet. I might give it a shot.. The problem with GIMP is that the tutorials are all done in previous versions and although the guys are great at gimp art the tutorials are pretty tough..Ill try to figure it out though.

It should work with a transparent background, I didn't mess with anything other than the head, that darker area is part of the orginal image.

Do you try anything with that Imageready?

I may try to play around with some animations probably these next coulple of weekends but I doubt I can get it better than that. I just looked at imageready and I really have no idea what I am doing so I will probably look for some tutorials later if I wanted more than one player to switch in and out

Thanks again

wow imageeady is way over my head. I couldnt even understand the help lol. O well I guess I will leave it to the experts. Leal is you have some free time and it will fit into cafe regulations could you make it transparent so just the bobblehead shows?

Good luck with figuring out how to do it I tried and failed but am sure you can do it and will turn out great ;-D

I'm ok with IR, I can help you out with it sometime during the weekend or next week.

Here's a sample of what I've done with IR, pretty basic but effective.

wow that is really nice work. I couldnt even get more than 1 image on the animation thing so it would move lol

here it is with the transparent background and a close-up version

I love the close up one. You can see the bobble great and can tell its A. Green easier. Thanks for all the help you can do everything!!!
