I had to cut some frames and scale it down more than the max allowed to get it to fit with the size standards..but here it is...

I'll see if I can do anymore with it if you don't like it...

Edit: Here's a larger, cleaner version of it..but it doesn't have as many frames of animation..

That's as good as you're gonna get..unless Lara wants to raise the filesize limit by 5k (HINT HINT!)

Thank you RG for sizing the animated gif for no.1gamer!
How are you able to resize an animated gif?

It's not up to me to change the filesize limit ;) It may be that it's imperative the size stays small though. Chris would know more about it.

You have to use a gif animator (I use Ulead) to resize the image along with all the frames, using a regular file viewer will just crunch down the first frame and make it static.

lol, and start harassing Chris to raise the filesize limit...it'll let us have cooler avatars. ;)

Thanks so much man.
It's totally sweet. Exactly what I wanted.

I do agree that VGR should increase the max size limit of avatars though. So we can be more creative.

I also adjusted my profile to match my new identity.

You can now refer to me as:

Pandaren Brewmaster

:p

:) Thanks about the gif info RG. I use photoshop and I'm sure somewhere in there is a way to resize animated stuff. They just don't make it look easy!

Nice to see you're happy with your new avatar no.1gamer!
Thanks again to RG.

Glad ya like it, man ;)

Hmm...Photoshop? I've never heard of anyone using that to make animated gifs before. You can use it edit the individual frames, obviously, but as far as I know there isn't a way to string them all together inside of the program.

If you do wanna get into making animated gifs I would recommend a secondary program like Ulead. The resize was easy inside of that, all I had to do was set the resolution and it scaled down every image..in fact the only really hard thing about it was trying to figure out which frames were expendable, everything else was just point and click.

I thought you'd like my new identity Nissian X!

Of course the Pandaren Brewmaster is good. He brews "Fresh, cool, ale!" How can he not be good?

In all seriousness he has one of the best ultimate spells in the game.

I suggest that you start off with "Drunken Haze."
As you level up learn "Drunken Brawler."

If you want to inflict serious pain on your enemy "Breath of Fire" can be used on someone with "Drunken Haze" to light them on fire. They'll burn for a while and run around as a flaming corpse. The only problem I've found with this combo is that you run out of mana fast doing it. So if you like to use the "Breath of Fire/Drunken Haze combo" you should carry a mana potion with you.

If you can successfully level up to 6, your opponents are in serious trouble. Split him into 3 units and have them lead your army strait at your enemy. He'll absorb most of the initial damage and there's no way all 3 will die. If even one of them survives your Pandaren Brewmaster will regenerate.

You can do it in Photoshop. It's been a while since I attempted it, but it's definitely possible to do an animated gif with Photoshop. I wouldn't know how it compares to other programs like Ulead, because that's the only thing I've ever used to make gifs.

Thanks for the tips, I just may try those out.

Hey gamer, I found a way to take down my firewall, I can host a game if you want. Just PM me or something.

One thing for sure about the Pandaren Brewmaster. He's not a good choice for noobs.

The single most important way to use the Pandaren Brewmaster successfully is to level him up to 6. So just keep getting experience and make sure he doesn't get killed. Once he gets his ultimate spell it's ownage time.

I was playing a 3v3 game last week and I leveled him up to 9. Everyone else on the battle field was level 6 or lower. Just imagine 3 level 7 Mojo Dark-Ales unleashing furry with bamboo sticks while everyone else wasn't even up to level 6 yet.

I'll be online tonight and tomorrow night unless some unforeseen circumstance comes up. If any VGR members want to play a game give me a shot.

My battle.net identity is the exact same as it is here: no.1gamer

If I'm not playing a game, I'll be hanging out in the chat room of my clan. My clan name is "infinity." Just type, "clan inf" into the channel box.

I won't be able to play any team games with you though Nissan X. The problem is that I had to reformat my PC and so I have to reinstall Reign of Chaos to my hard drive. But I let my girlfriend borrow it because I only use The Frozen Throne disc. I'll get it back this weekend but won't be able to install it until next week.

We can however play some custom games together. I don’t usually play custom games, but the other clan infinity members always talk about them. We could ask them which ones are cool. So if any VGR members are online tonight or tomorrow don't forget to hit me up.

So you can't play just FT or ROC or what?

I actually can play TFT sometimes. But other times it tells me to install the RoC disc. What I have to do is uninstall it completely, then install it again.

Nevertheless, I'll be online tonight still. Like I said we can play any custom game or just hang out in my clan chat room. I can also play random battle.net games. But because they're "random" we can't play together in them. Some of the custom games can be really fun though if any VGR members want to sign on and hit me up tonight.
