Thaks for voting all. Close run definately. Paceman was leading last night when I last checked.

Deadeven atm

I have no say in this though. Would be unfair.

but thanks for the words, appreciated

Here's some tutorials and tools to help you out skinning with Adobe Photoshop or equivalent.

Thanks

So it works in GIMP? Good to know, cheers.

Still working on producing a png version for the "crybabies"

What on earth are you on about?

If it's the Monster skin pictured in the link below then no can do.

The rendered one is uploaded at the very link you posted. Just press the "Skin downloaden" link. You can even upload it yourself to lfsworld.net

Better, yes.

No I won't make it compatible with Paint Shop Pro. As I don't have it and personally can do fine with Photoshop.

I have had a few people requesting a png file of this kit. So maybe you'll want to keep an eye on the bodykit thread.

It was a last minute addition, the bp sponsor. The front quickly went bare and uninteresting and using the bp star as a kind of sun from beneath the stp logo seemed like a good idea.

I could release a seperate one without the BP logo. It did cross my mind when making it that the colors wouldn't match.

Am I really going to be the only one entering?

Anyways here's the skin: http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?p=1127526#post1127526

Hey guys!


This skinning stuff is all new to me but my mate [AKM]Andy has shown me the ways

so here is my first skin..

Hope you all like it

What it looks like to me is you made a 1024x1024 output of my bodykit. Pasted some graphics on it and sized it up to 2048.

You can find a high resolution version of my bodykit here: http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=50996

And then you can reapply the graphics underneath the bodykit for the best effect.

And remember to credit next time.

God damnit get some sense knocked into that skull and learn what the **** the difference between BMP and JPEG is and then for the sake of all that is good, think a bit for yourself...

I'll give it a go.

Wow way to stick excessive amounts of sponsors on one skin. I think you've just set the record for most sponsors on one skin.

En hel del bedre. Kan godt lide den slangeskins textur.

Well done

Der ser ud til at være noget stretching på dine logoer på siden.
En god ide er at prøve at resize dem på længden.

Og så måske have fremhævet øjet lidt mere. Måske lavet det mere gult så det ikke falder helt hen i den grønne farve.

Temmelig godt for et første forsøg på et skin.

Got a little sidetracked when I saw this design on a Seat Leon in an ad.

Quote from mutt107 :

can i get a png version of this shadow kit please 2048.

Nope sorry. Due to the many carbon parts and stuff I've included it just wouldn't be proper.
Also layer styles should be used for best outcome and mixing shadows and highlights would make for a weird effect compared.

So I recommend you to get the full bodykit psd. If you're having trouble using it with GIMP I suggest you try an Adobe Photoshop Trial to add the bodykit to your skin.

So remember to use google before posting. It might give you links to great sites that can help you out more than a random forum poster.

I think he meant his teamskins but whatever

He generally just is an idiot. "Oh my look I'm working on skins" post with no previews.

What the hell are we gonna use that shit for?

It's funny 'cause it's allready been done.
Take a look

Quote from Shadowww :

You made some skin with it? If yes, show us a screenshot please.

Mine Photoshop lags a lot with this PSD loaded

A good tip, disable the bodykit group while skinning. That way Photoshop won't render the entire bodykit when skinning. Then enable it when saving it as jpeg.

This is how I work around the issue of Photoshop being slow while working with my bodykits.

Else you can also add the bodykit later on when the basic skin is finished.

Quote from mblixt :

iwe get an error wen iam try to upload it stands pleas upload a skin file
my skins size was 2048 FXO_fxotbo jpeg format and under 1k

A good site, which unfortunately changes image names, but otherwise brilliant here: http://images2host.co.uk/

Btw. skins.lfscommunity.lv is one big arse page of errors. Can't even download a simple skin as it is now from that site.
