    Does anyone know how to convert a .smk file to one that will play in a sig? I assume it would be a flash or something like that.....

    SMK = Image file (Deer's Revenge)
    SMK = Image file (Nascar Racing '99)
    SMK = RAD Video Tools : Smacker compressed video
    I remember reading something in graphics animation about how flash uses a proprietary form of video compression or something *puzzled*

    I have attempted to convert to a .mov file with RAD gaming tools before, but Quicktime wont recognize the converted version, but I have to admit that I dont really know what I'm doing

    I think you guys missed the point that its an .smk file right now not a flash, and I dont know how to convert it to a flash...I either need help converting it myself or need someone who would be willing to convert it and put it into a sig for me...and it wouldnt be playing all the time, I would have to make it click to play
    Also, I never said it was for this site.....

    another question, you say that no flash is allowed on the site. So wouldn't it be possible for someone to do a flash sig but just e-mail to the person without ever going thru the site? :unsure:

    Hmm, i am at a total loss have you tried macromedia flash 8 if it opens it you might can save it off as a different format.

    Darkstar, can you use interactive flash on here? like click and something changed?

    I cant even get Flash to open the smk file. I used RAD Game tools again and successfully converted it to a .avi file but Flash wont open that either.........I really have no idea what I'm doing... ;(
