CO Skin Guide

the skins are awesome, sofar ive liked all the skins, +1 karma(like u saw it coming :rolleyes: )

I've looked at the dds images and there isn't any uniform transparent color (such as bright pink for some program skins)

What color is used as transparent?
Is there an alpha layer to do transparency?

The colors TQ used are white and black on a alpha layer.


For semi transparent: You would add a new alpha color (light gray) and make the trans. 15% (just an example mess with this to make different opacitys)

For full transparent: Like im doing you need to magic wand tool the area's you want to keep solid and copy that highlighted area to the alpha layer and then fill the area's with the transparent color in this case thats black.

Hope that answers your question...



And for everyone else...

My webserver crashed this past week and ive been spending alot of time trying to fix it =| so the project "Super View Skin" has been put on hold untill i get things resolved..

Sorry to disapoint.
Will keep you updated.

And u did say that release time (if you release it) can change so thnx again for letting us now, your doing us a great service so no apologies needed. ;)

aww :( im sad lol

I await this so much.. gl and thanks man..

these skins look very cool
im looking forward to when you complete them
good job, no karma atm or i'd give you one

The invisible and other skins look great, keep up the good work.

It seems like the friend button wont change i tried the levwordfriend and stuff and nothing seems to work :( looks silly with one odd ball being blue and the rest being black.


EDIT:: I didnt realize until after i posted it was a double post i am sorry in advance.

WARNING: When making a batched skin Do not touch the saturation and brightness levels too much! This will make the buttons blotchy and make it look bad. I know this from making about 8 interfaces, I will post screenies if you dont believe me, I dont have a good post count because I post on the QO forums, not here.

esq dose he finish the skin
