Im trying to make a siggy for a friend but I can't get the sizing right!!?

It says it has to be either 500 x 100 or 2KB whatever is smaller and I made it 500 x 100 and its 40 something KB and when I got the size down to 2KB it was so small no one would be able to tell what the heck it was so now what do I do??

"Note: The maximum size of your custom image is 500 by 100 pixels or 2.0 KB (whichever is smaller)."

Try reducing the color palette, and optimizing the image by using a format such as .gif or .jpg. After you reduce the color palette, you can also try submitting it to a GIF optimizer, to try and further reduce the size (even though these optimizers usually just reduce the color palette).

2kb is INSANELY low for.. well, anything. A TEXT DOCUMENT is like 10. Tell your forum admin to change it, he is a twit.

What are you saving it as? try a jpg to get a better file size.

Try changing to a gif,
gif's are unfortunately much lower quality, but the file size is smaller.

here is an example of a 1,950 byte image: http://us.i1.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/us/s...
