    What do you need to change in this? Text? Color? or images.
    Does animation looks good?

    here's my animation (it is copatible to your site's background, so because of that the ends look terrible. it looks just fine on a black background, you can check yourself...) :

    [​IMG]

    since i'm not an expert when it comes to animation, it has been a struggle...
    personally, i'm not a fan of animations and i prefer my first clean entery, but of course that my opinion doesn't count lol.
    i know the size is not exactly the size of your corrent logo, but it can be changed easily. i'll change it to the correct size if you'll pick my logo.

    hope you'll like it

    =edit=
    iv'e just noticed that the man has a little problem with his hand. don't worry about it, it's can be fixed easily

    ^sooo close mate, right keep the frames on the right all the same size and use these images

    http://manlystuff.com/images/banner/

    obviously cut to size, so maybe just showing the boobs etc!

    i still don't like the .com font and make the blue font colour the same as the navbar at www.manlystuff.com

    cut the animation out on the left side, or clean it up as it dsnt look right!


    thanks man nearly there!

    hi Jonezyuk,
    i'll work on the final fixes today and put it here tonight.

    just 1 question:
    the ".com" font is the same font of the "manly" text, just not bold.

    do you want it bold? do you want a totally different font? if so, in which style (handwriting, rounded, classic etc.)? is the grey color of the ".com" OK?

    oh and another thing: you've sent a bunch of photos. each added photo is increasing the file size in about 20 kb. if i'll use all the photos the file size will be heavier, means that the logo will be up slower. i think that you need to consider how many photos do you want in there. 12 is a whole lot, the file will be a bit heavy.

    thanks,
    Neta

    The only thing th banner makes cool if i only animate the MAN and nothing else. If you look at my previous post the man was funny but the images are not giving a cool effect

    Here i also create a new banner with your given images. Hope You like it.

    I will create an animated man in this banner if you ask (Without Images)
    IF you want that with No Images: What will man DO:
    The man will open a champaign Bottle and Fill his glass and drink it, then throw its glass away. Then I will create it in an hour or less.

    The Images makes the BAnner More Heavy then my previous banners.

    hi again, here's what i came with:
    [​IMG]

    and a few othe pics to demonstrate how it'll look (there is no animation on those samples cause pics are jpeg files, so please imagine that the animation works):

    how it'll look with your web page background:
    [​IMG]

    how it'll look with white background:
    [​IMG]

    how it'll look with a different ".com" font:
    [​IMG]

    and how it'll look on your website [the last 1 attached on the thumblines]



    that's all for now,
    Neta

    yeah you can check it out, but just check it and then replace it again with your old logo.
    i can give a try with another font tomorrow.

    there is always a problem with gif animations: fade out effects look perfect only if the gif is on a 1 color background.

    i've tried to improve the way it looks on the background, and that is the best i came up with (it's not with animation but it does'nt matter), i think it's a satisfying result, you can check it out:

    [​IMG]

    here's a pic that shows how it'll look on your background:

    [​IMG]

    if your not happy with the result, another option is to remove the fade out effect and make the images square or somthing...

    about fonts' i've try the exact font you had on your original logo and it is no good, here have a look:

    [​IMG]

    SO what do you think about this font?

    [​IMG]

    is it okay?

    by the way, i just want to mention the files i'll supply if you'll pick my design:
    animation with a matte that fits to your website background
    animation with a white matte
    PSD with the images and animation layers
    PSD of the logo itself without the animation layers.
    let me know if it's ok.
