You can post your alts in here again! Thanks to GreenLantern of Cybertron's insight I can now grab images from here without any issues.
Thanks MP

Thats fantastic. Anything from the original 84-85 (pre-movie) G1 run is a priority, both alt and robot, to begin with. We can always expand from there and we'll have to add a few extras in to balance the teams anyway.SSJMihoshi wrote:Any "common" alt-modes that you need? I'd be happy to help with what time I have. (And considering I'm between jobs, that's quite a bit of time indeed... <.<; )

Great start Raph, but the larger image needs to be 100x100px. I think you need to uncheck the 'lock aspect ratio' (or similar) button when you expand the canvas size (remembering to keep it centred), and then the 50x50 pic wont look so squashed, but other than that it seems to be spot on.
Nice job mate!

I tried doing this using GIMP and all went well until step 8. Either I don't know how, or GIMP won't let you do the drop shadow effect in a new layer. Think you could give me any advice?
By the way, great walkthrough, I learned a lot from it.

Mine were done with GIMP.
Drop Shadow with GIMP:
-Change to the background layer and select the transparent area.
-Go to 'Filters' and scroll down to 'Light And Shadow', then select Drop Shadow.
-Offset X and Y should be 0. Blur radius should be 5. Opacity 100.
-Do 4 more drop shadows the way you just did them(Note, for me they came up as seperate layers each time, but this is fixable in the next part).
-On the layers list, select any one of the 'Drop Shadow' layers and right click it. Then select 'Merge Down', and do this until there is only one 'Drop Shadow' layer.

So here's what I came up with, I would e-mail them straight to you Mogwai, but I wanted to see what everyone thinks:![]()
Did I do it right?

Also I tried a new technique for this version, instead of using a 40% opacity I grabbed the highlights and shadows only, place them ona color to see the difference.
I can post the technique if you prefer it, its a few more steps, but it keeps more detail and shows colour better.
I can only explain in in photoshop (cause I dont care to learn anything else for simple image editing)
and if anyone wants photoshop I could point you to a place where you can get it.
GreenLantern of Cybertron wrote:Oh and Mogwai Prime you can copy PNGs, and photobucket is not the problem.
instead of [right click > copy image] use [right click > save image as] its when you copy straight to your clipboard that kills transparency.
oh and i have a question, I assume you will be using a blank colour background behind these pngs to change the colour (ingenious btw)
Is it possible to have jpegs behind them to make custom paintjobs?
