RG Pictures Thread

***Do not quote this post as it is very long***
Ok ive made some animated GIFs, now these are VERY basic
I just made some simple samples to present some ideas on what i can do
PLEASE suggest anything i can do to improve these images, such as:
  • Change the guitar
  • Change the way the animations are presented
  • Change the animations themselves
  • Change the speed
Also feel free to request anything at all, if you think its possible, it is
and if you have a video of your RG / playing it, i can make that animated too

Plus i encourage you to post your own pictures


#1: Background Color Changes [see, very basic, can be changed a lot]




#2: Strobe Effect [can be easily applied to any picture]




#3: Different RGs Flashing By [can change the guitars, the background, the angle, the rate at which they go by, anything]




#4: Angle Shifting [just to give you an idea on where this can go]




#5: Text Effect [there are soooo many possibilities involving text, here is 1]




#6: Twisting Effect [this is just a picture, but may have potential}


ok so like i said, VERY BASIC
please give suggestions

I've found that the best animations are the cleanest and the simplest (at surface level; they can be as complex as you want underneath so long as the user doesn't notice).
If you're trying to make something for the group picture, make it basic; if it's too flashy it will only turn the user away. As much fun as strobe effects are, they practically give people like me seizures. I like the picture with the transition from one guitar to the next; that looks really good. You should try to make it a smoother transition between each one; maybe a fade effect from one to the next.
Nice work!

I like #5 ... but without the Black background. If with the Black background, fix the edges to remove the White debris. Also, use the Ibanez font.<br />

Great job!<br />

Just to let you know, that Ibanez font is really really hard to find. I've looked for ages and found nothing.

What about a font other than Arial? Century Gothic or CopperPlate, etc.

Also, instead of just Ibanez RG, how about: Ibanez RG Legion or Ibanez RG Horde or We ravage nubile virgins or Our groupies are legion.
