Chain For Theme

Is there a chance you could try out this chain I made for a theme (I was just messing around really) in place of the vine just to see what it would look like? The chain wraps:

and here is a smaller version:

p.s. I think it would work best with http://faf.staronesw.com/?skin=3

Thanks, lovely! I've implemented it for Skin 3.

One suggestion/request: it looks rather straight. The other theme felt more wavy and stuff, probably because it was longer. Would it be possible to make this longer, say 4 liks long, and then make it a bit irregular? Thanks!

Nice. I think it would look much better without the white background, however.

Ah I agree sorry I thought I had already made the background transparent.

Here are the new pictures with transparent backgrounds:

Oh, and I'll work on making it a bit longer latter today if I get a chance.

It was transparent for me, libpng under Linux.

Replaced it, but it's much uglier now...

It was ok then; it was transparent.

Now it HURTS and STINGS.

Argh, that looks terrible... I have no idea what went wroung... Here it is in gif see if that fixes it:

Also here is my first attempt at a curved chain... Not suer how it will look though... It might be really bad...

Chaps, maybe it was only transparent for users of Firefox on Linux; I know for a fact that IE's PNG support is shaky.

Muuuuuuuuuuuch better!
