Tutorial: How to find/wear/make a "Skin"? - VenomSinister - 12-25-2012
Hello there, you have come to this thread because you need help on making, wearing or finding a skin? Well I'm going to teach you and show you how.
Creating skins can be difficult sometimes, depending on what you are painting it to. For example making the basic Jeff skin is probably an easy job for anyone, but creating a more advanced one with shadings and small details can we very tricky and needs talent. Some people might not have as much talent as others, but if you need help on getting more talent on painting then Youtube is a good source for that. Here are a few videos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3RvEEcp6W8 , http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ffbLIy6eWKU , http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K9l1kJ3wBZs . Now ofcourse you need this ON the computer, so how to make paintings on computer? Well many computers have Paint. You should learn on how to use it before you start using any more advance programs. Paint.NET is a good program and where you can already start creating advanced looking skins or GIMP which is a good program too. You can create skins on any program. Now there is a template you need to use if you want to create skins and here it is: http://2dworlds.org/changecharacter.php . You copy paste the image inside your skin making program, zoom in and you can start modeling. When you are done, save your skin and go to http://2dworlds.org/stuff.php . You should see a little text saying: "Skins (Upload Yours)" Click on the "Upload Yours" blue text and it should take you to http://2dworlds.org/add.php?type=2 . Now fill in all the required information and paste in your image file, then click "Submit" and it should be placed on the Skins page! And there you go, you are done.
Now if you want to find/wear any sort of skins you just go here http://2dworlds.org/stuff.php and look for any sort of skin that you like. You can even search for them on the little "Search" label. You click on the skin and it should take you to (For example: http://2dworlds.org/items/Casual--1/21 ) and you see on the right side of your screen "Add to My Stuff". Click it and then go to your profile page: http://2dworlds.org/profile.php . Then you click on Customize Character or go here: http://2dworlds.org/changecharacter.php and click on "Use This Skin". And now refresh the page and your done!
I hope this tutorial helped you and will hopefully help many other people.
