This is my first good skin. Its not so great or special, but as long as i asked a question, i might as well post this. The question is:
I have Adobe Photoshop 6.0. I edited the models in that, but i cant save them as tgas. So i save it as a jpg, and convert it to a tga through paint shop pro 7.0. In the editor, the unit shows up as just the player color markings. I know how to put the units in the maps correctly, and when i put it in, in looked normal. The one i'm posting i just did in paint shop pro and put it in game, that seems to work. Anyone no what the problem is?
Heres the image.

if you save it as jpg you will lose the alpha channel inside the tga file. You MUST save it in tga if you edit it to retain teamcolor working. I don know much about photoshop 6.0 myself but I recalled tga was supported in 7.0.

people nowaday use 7.0 to edit it and 6.0 for cool effects and special stuff (just copy iamge from 7.0, to 6.0, apply sfx, then copy paste to 7.0 and edit/save

i know it kinda messed up! i like it like that. Give me a sense of... um... something. I made a orc Sorceress too, but, its got wierd black stripes that make it a little bit wierd (that sentence was repetitive). I'm just a beginner man. So, its not that good. My maps are better. I dont specialize in skins. I like sigs (yeah, mines boring, but i'm out of ideas, if you want a sig, you gotta ell me what you want). I made some other guy with a boot on his head (lol), i was bored. I know its kinda retarded, but it reflects my personali-ummm... it is just like that... :gfu:

i know this sounds a bit cruel but the head looks like a clown or something, (but hey if its meant to be one them it looks awesome)

I have to say the colours you chose looks like you had just thrown up and decided to use the pewk's colour to make his face.

Enough being cruel;

I sort of like the rest of the body (the armour) although you cannot really see it compared to the rest of the body.

I think for a first skin you can improve alot, and please don't use gay colours like that again, it makes me want to throw- up.

Lol. I know about the colors. I thought i'd do blue because. Why? Completely random. Everything i do is random. Random, Random, random. I have one friend, his name is David. What i call him ranges from David to Hoovid. Every time I talk to him, his name is defferent. And about the face, yes, he was supposed to look retarded. Why? Because i felt like it.
I have a question. How do you make the really good looking armor with the actual chest parts and the detailed features. Al i can get are these fat ugly lines. I use Paint Shop Pro 7.0 and PhotoShop 6.0. I also have eyecandy as a plug-in.
Someone answer my question. I dun wanna get stuck with ugly skins!
