Here are some better ones, saved as PNG's to show transparancy
Only one I'm missing is the heavy
Fine...
Pardon my rudeness, I cannot abide useless people.
Oh... I cataloged the major parts of the light skin... Youll probably outdo me in this too but...
Pardon my rudeness, I cannot abide useless people.
Well, unless I gave out my psd. There's not much I'd do except make it transparent again and keep it the proper size.
I like the white one's Ice posted B)
I HAD TO DO THAT IN APPLE WORKS... I think it was pretty good... I am getting photoshop soon :)))
Pardon my rudeness, I cannot abide useless people.
And I like ices better too... :/

Impressive for using appleworks. Labor intensive. Look up GraphicConverter, it's a free demo and it can do some stuff. (not as much as photoshop, of course...) It's only available for Macs.
Use Gimp. It's free, and VERY powerful.
I now have graphics converter... It is awsome... And I like the "spray can" feature in apple works. Also, I can't figure out how to do gradients in graphics converter.

Nice!!!!!!!!!!!

Holy shiznat... This is from a LONG time ago... Wow, I was, like... Huh.
Pardon my rudeness, I cannot abide useless people.
Lmao I am a beginner. Ur templates help alot
Gimp can even do basic painting. P.O.'ed that it can't draw straight lines? Hold down SHIFT while drawing. Geometric shapes? Just make a brush for them. Piece 'o cake. It puts Photoshop to shame.
As for the labeled template, mind telling us which side each plate's on?
Top = left, bottom = mirrored version of right. Make sure when you type on the bottom that you flip it around so you read it forwards on the actual tank.
No it doesnt....
To make a floting image is 8 steps in gimp while its one in PhotoShop.
Pray to GOD for him to reveal himself to you.
Photoshop is decent in macs
yes im a girl and yes this is my anime crush
Pixen lets u go work with individual pixels
yes im a girl and yes this is my anime crush
And because of that, you'd need to fill in, if my calculations are correct, 262,144 pixels. No, I'm sticking with GIMP. It's free, open-source, and KICK-@$$. Plus, if I want a pixel-by-pixel editor (useful for making avatars), I go with ArtIcons.
OMFG!!! This is the one year aniversary of this thread... Locketh, anyone?
Pardon my rudeness, I cannot abide useless people.
No you can if you want to, but u can work with fatso groups too. I only have appleworks otherwise

5 questions to ask youself when picking an image editor:
1. Does it support layering?
2. How many tools does it have?
3. Does it have any useful/interesting effects?
4. Is it easy to use?
5. How much does it cost?
Just a guide. I'd be curious to know how "Pixen" stacks up with those compared to the Gimp.
Here's a.jpg blank skin :

Don't worry, we're going to keep humiliating you for the rest of your time on TT... >:}
Ooh...Happy Anniversary proud_gaminggeek XD.

Hee hee hee... This thread is now about a year and a half old. And still on page 1. XD
Basic Gimp chrome tutorial:
1. Download the blank tank skin for whatever tank you´re skinning.
2. Hit Ctrl+A and add a bevel.
3. Go to Script-Fu > Distorts > Emboss.
4. Resave the file.
Here I just made a blank heavy.
Rough around the edges, but it gets the job done. ;)

What did you use? Paint? In Gimp, try this:
1. Hit Z.
2. Click on the black. Hold down Shift and click on all the black parts.
3. Hit Ctrl+I and then Shift+E, and erase everything.
4. This works on all tank skins.
No, I actually used Gimp for that. I just put it though tons of filters to get that result.

2nd page time!
I have a light template in PSP format if anyone wants it...
Not quite 2nd page yet..

Hopefully it will be soon...
I will make templates in psp format for other tanks tomorrow.
Can someone post Medium and Heavy blank's that are NOT.png? I need the one's WiTH.jpg.

I know when I began (and I still am beginning), cutting out all the part to recolor them was one of the most painstaking parts of skin making. Below is a pic of most of the major parts of the light tank skin cut out. I admit, its not perfect, but its great for a begginer... Thanku
