Page : <1> :


I know it sucks, and its n00b, but I thought it wasn't bad for my first one. Just filters and stuff for now. I'm gonna make meds and heavies for it because I'm gonna use it for a while. Just tell me if you want me to post those too. BTW, it looks alot better on the tank than it does as a template.

EDIT: I got the med and heavy. Sorry for the long post.

Lol, nice. Now, I would try to take a freehand brush, and just draw some darn green lines through the centres of the cutouts. Ad a little pizaz to it, and you could definately add that as a skinset. This is kinda what I mean.

Pardon my rudeness, I cannot abide useless people.

Yeah, I tried that. They weren't 512 X 512, which I don't really understand. How do I resize them?

Gimp.

@ NEVA...hey hows the GIMP working....i was thinking about getting it. Do you have Windows...or a Mac.
Also I would like to know how well Gimp works and all...and if there are any problems with it...Cause I was checking what some people were writing about tons of problems they've had with it.

Thanks,

If it isn't 512 x 512, just make a new layout, make it 512 x 512. Then, copy the skin to it, and use the scale tool to resize it. THen type in 512 x 512 in. The hardest part is moving the image over the layout. The image is the right size, but it didn't cover over the layout, you'll know what I mean once you try this...if you do.

@Caboose

GIMP is a fine program, and I only use it if I feel like messing around with it. Ask Dj about it, I'm sure he's used it a bit. It beats the hell outta Photoshop with the price, *cough* $0.

I only go on to play if there are people I really want to talk to. I don't hang around for just a scrum game anymore. I'll go on if I see you Cloud. Gimp is good. Very powerful. No problems. Mac. Oh, and I made another skin. How's this for improvement?

The text is backwards on one of the sides....don't know how to reverse it yet. It's' a little plain, but my next one will be better. I promise.

Edit: I resized my first three skins fine. But they are twice the allowed size. I still can't upload 'em.
