I started a lot skin I've never finished because they looked really bad

+1, not every skin is a success or even worth finishing. Most of my skins weren't worth finishing but i did anyway !

and i make the skins in illustrator and couse i dont have the viewer on the apple i put the skin on the memory stick, then i go down tot the normal computer open photoshop (elements) make the skin to 2048 pixels sava as jpg make a screenshot, load the screenshot in photoshop save it on memory stick and then put it on forum

so, now u now the whole story

You can open the archives on the computer where you have the viewer. put *.psd on the usb-stick, and open it with illustrator (not sure if illustrator understand psd and the layers:shrug If it works you'll have a 2048x2048 skin kit with a great wireframe (helps a lot). Don't you have photoshop for you mac? Illustrator is good but maybe photoshop would be a bit easier at the beginning.

schwantz, we don't want to hear about that on this forum. I deleted your post.

sorry, didnt now that.. it was just to explain what i have to do to get the screenshot couse every body ask me so much question of how i make the screenshot and just wanted to explain that..
will never do it again

made the XFG version of Team Rock now..
i'm sure i'm gonna hear a lot of comments that arn't positive but i dont care

they just don't look good sorry.

i mean teazr uses illustrator and he uses the pro kit. and i'm sorry but ur skins are just 'scrappy'.

Try to bump the AA up, and please, PLEASE use 2048x2048

also, try to skin around the edges. because as soon as it hits the front from the side skinning area it goes another colour.

Where did you get that idea? I'm using Photoshop.

@Schwantz, try to make a design first and once you've nailed that you may try to enhance it with effects and/or filters. None of which makes a good skin on it's own.

I'm pretty sure I recall you mentioning you use Illustrator to make nice curves which then get exported to Photoshop. I may be wrong as my memory is crap, but I'm like 85% certain I remember you saying something along those lines.

I did recall u saying that u used illustrator for some parts of skins.

Must of been confused. Sorry mate
