So, I've decided to more or less publish the code for the last two signatures I made.
Before that though, I'd like to go through some explaining.

I made two signatures. For those who haven't seen them (perhaps I have changed them in the process, or I might forget about this thread) here they are:

A gif signature(the part at the bottom - I thought it would look incomplete without its upper part, so I posted them both):


An apng signature:


I'll try to point some advantages to using either of them.
GIF
+relatively small file-size
-bad quality if you're using a lot of colors
-no transparency
-can be really laggy/choppy
APNG
+supports transparency
+very good quality
-big file-size
-won't be seen by most people(close to 70% of the internet users - according to w3schools)

Now, the sigs themselves aren't really hard to implement.
The sigs are built on saka's template and are using classes accordingly taken from phpclasses. A note: the code I'll share is for advanced users (who've used the template at least once or know what they're doing) because I've removed all of saka's comments to keep the size to a minimum. The only commented sections you'll find are those for the animation themselves.

Now, for the code:
- .gif
- .png

So, feedback, things that need to be better explained, things that could be changed through the code, things to be further implemented, things to make the code run faster, things you don't like, things you like, suggestions, questions, absolutely everything, please ask me. A comment/pm would be better suited, since I might (though I will) not check this thread again :D

Note that the code presented is only to get the basic gist of things. I'll not say that it's the most simple or efficient method to make sig animations either. Also, I do not claim that the code is mine, with the sole exception of the part that's commented.

I haven't checked out the scripts myself but the results seem good. I think the png script will come in handy for me.
