Hey everyone, I'm new here, this is my first skin. I have no idea how to put this in-game, so if someone could put it in and show me how it turned out that would be awesome.

Re: Glamour Skins (Part II)
As I've said time and time again:
The lasso tool is the single most useful feature to make skins.
Select any shape area with it, then apply the necessary color adjustments.
The one and only reason that your skin looks mediocre is that you used the box selection tool.
When using the lasso tool, you can conform your colorizing to a specific area.
Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning.

Re: Glamour Skins (Part II)
How exactly do you use the crop tool like that, Taivyx? I've been wondering how to change the colors on a skin without destroying what's under it.

Is that doable with GIMP?

Re: Glamour Skins (Part II)
I'll have to research more about doing it in GIMP, however, I'm 99.99% sure there's a way.
I use Photoshop, and all versions of it have that kind of tool.
EDIT: Oh, I see what you mean. Why the heck did I say crop?? I meant lasso tool. I'll correct that in my post straightaway. Lol, that's embarassing.
