Re: Making a Skin
Hi, looks very pixeled, and yes, monocly will on both eyes, if u wanna it on the one eye, do it on body.
Use vector graphical editor, i'm using inkscape (free).
"WTF" eye looks not rly good, would be much better with white back.
In whole skin very nice.

Re: Making a Skin
if you are using gimp, you can just scale the image to 5000×2500 for don't create pixel, and when you will finish, juste rescale the image to 256×128.

Re: Making a Skin
Im not using gimp, but either way i dont see how resizising the picture would make it better.Pikou300 wrote:if you are using gimp, you can just scale the image to 5000×2500 for don't create pixel, and when you will finish, juste rescale the image to 256×126.

Re: Making a Skin
because by resizing you will use a better quaity of image and then you just make the normal size of the skin

Re: Making a Skin
@Pikou300: Then the skin would get blurred af, especially with such a large resize.
@Se0xX: What program do you use?
