Hey guys, I'm a brand new novice skinner and I'm currently using PaintShopPro to make these. This will be an updated thread like every other, and requests will be gladly accepted (not that you'll use the skin anyway, but just for me to have an idea of what to skin next and so). Constructive critisism and feedback are all appreciated and I will need at least one "that's great for your first skin" and/or "your one of the best new skinners I've seen, keep it up" in every post. Try to keep the constructive part to the minimum. My tag (or signature, much like Racer's TT-R) will be "ransom". Ransom is a mixture of names (including mine) that I have kept and used for many games and usernames over the years.

Skins

Skin 1: May 23, 2006

BoxCar Racer

Side Note: Ok, who's going to be the brave soul to try this skin on and send me the screen shots of the angles? I know there is a way to do it in photoshop or paintshop, just not sure how. If you can do the secret paintshop/photoshop way please send me the screenshotsd via email! Email in profile. - EDIT: Thanks Sersh. There were a few flaws in my final product do I gave it a little final copy and a makeover. Will need new pictures as well! Also wondering what people are talking about when they say "resize". Thanks - Tank.

actually, it's way better than my first skin. I lost it, it'd be funny to post just for giggles. I basically just drew all over z's tank. Keep at it, experimentation is the best way to learn. You've got a great software program, learning how to use it is the hard part.

I would be willing to bet this is not first skin
but first skin willing to post.

@ Tankster
Very nice.
You now have made it into my Personal Skin Library.
Once you start putting out more I will set up a folder for just your skins.
Keep up the good work B)

The only problem with it is the actual jpg file of the skin is like "522 x 512" I had to resize it in order for it to work.
Other then that I really like it! :P

Ok, skin updated with some minor changes. Will need new pictures from a generous PTTer. This time would like four different angles, two on the top two on the bottom so it looks even, and on the bottom, if you could, write BoxCar Racer - Tankster in a cool font XD

Working on a new tank now. Feedback on this first skin well appreciated!

I have been editting the header non-stop for 15 minutes now! Refresh your page and you'll see I noticed that I put it in a different angle and changed it.

Uhh I'm thinking your going to need to rotate it back to its normal angle :S looks nice for a first time mate %)

I had to resize it again so one sidde of the tank looks a little big. Sorry...

^ Uh, that image you posted is all black.

I can see it tho..
