Since when do we stay on topic? Also  It was odd not seeing Lilith smile, so i fixed that by combining the two faces and the new hair, then I used the bangs from Ursula...then did a failed attempt at blending the purple with the blond...did good on the left only because the end is hidden ;D |

I'm still not seeing the blend between purple and yellow. Let me see if maybe I can fix that. I'll work on both mugs that Rayl has put up. EDIT: Here:  Might have messed up on the shadings though... |

As everyone else and their mother seemed to be preoccupied with this, I decided that I too should give it the good ole college try. I apologize for what you are about to see, but do know that I attempted.  |

Wow, everyone's really good at this sort of thing. And Elias, how did you perform that animating magic? Something I'd have to buy to use, right? Would you mind if I used your mug and animation? Nay where is the handy-dandy website that makes pictures transparent?

I think, if I remember correctly, Elias uses GIMP?

Marle is correct, I use GIMP. I cut each individual sprite motion and make their own layer. Then when I'm done it shows each layer after each other like a slideshow, which is the animation. And no, I don't mind, that's why I made them. Gimp is completely free, it's like a photoshop only with a bit less you can do. Like... 80% photoshop, but it kicks the pants off of Paint. It's a bit hard to get used to, the UI can be confusing at times, but you get used to it. It's also what I use for making transparencies. www.gimp.org/If you're interested. |

So I did some basic re-doing of Serra's sprite, but I'm stumped on the hair. No matter what i do, the color shading looks awkward.  |

So I'm trying to animate in gimp. I've pasted my sprites from paint, and the select tool isnt doing anything. Did i have to make the sprites in gimp to work with them? I'm watching a video, but its not really helping...
an i using the wrong tool? Im using the rectangle select tool

I think it looks fine. Also, I'm not sure karina, I only know how to work with Photoshop and Corel Draw.

So I got the coloring finalized and added in some magic effects yesterday, but the animating has been eluding me ever since. Even when i figured out how to do it, Riza's sprite would move around the document, no matter how exact i tried to stack them on top of one another.  whoever can make it work gets cookies! |

Yay! I'm sorry about the legs, they kinda... shift around. It's because the sprite's tallness wasn't uniform. I woulda fixed that myself in paint, but I was too lazy :/ I hope it's not too noticeable.
