windy did somewhere in the first 5 pages i think

the way i do it is to cut out the image you want to alt with photoshop and then create a second layer on top of it containing tyres, windscreens, all the details i want in black

then shrink it to 45x45 and 25x25 then apply colour overlays over the the two layers; black for the details, and colour for the main body

and then apply a 3 pixel black stroke around the image.
i then turn visibilty of the overlay

and then save it as a gif using the settings windy provided(i'll dig them out)

EDIT: dug(or rather found them on my harddrive)

save as gif
palette=exact
Forced=Black and white
Transparancy=yes
options equal none
press ok then
Row order=normal

and now to check they work Blitzwing; TA alt mode

Would you guys like me to attempt to split this thread into a request thread and a completed thread?

I haven't messed around with the split-thread-function since Seibertron was reformatted, but I might be able to figure it out.

It would have to be approved and uploaded to the data base, then you might have to wait for the alt rotater to bring it up. So it is possible, but sometimes can be a long process.

I know this isn't probably much better than the Supra alt i attempted, but i wanted to do it for fun cause im in the mood to mess around a bit while listening to the new Disturbed. I'm also pretty sure the boarder needs work.
