It's an alright first attempt. What software do you use? I can give you suggestions for software to better your recolor.

Unless, of course, that's the style you desire.

use Photoshop CS(3/4/5). it's good.
if u use this u can make it about 2 minutes.
and shading is not the same, you can ask me if you want to do a good recolor.

Not everyone can afford PS... :P

How about you get GIMP instead? It may have a pain in the ass GUI, but it's the next best thing.

Well, SBR*. I do not see how that's supposed to help me? I already have PS CS4, I do not need GraphicsGale. Just drop it.

It was more a suggestion for other options.

Then why the hell do you tell me? I told you, I do not need a suggestion. So quit it, and tell someone else.

I think this tread is starting to go off topic between SBR* and Branden, so shut up before you get the thread locked!

Don't tell me to shut up. I tried to help you, for Christ-sakes.

But out of kindness, I'll try and help you. In PS, the "magic wand tool", obviously the easiest(but most awful) way for you to recolor your sprites.

When you select the area of the sprite, set your foreground color first, then pick the "selection tool", right click on it and select "fill", set the blend mode to "color" and check on "Preserve Transparency", and press "OK". Tuh-duh, you've recolored a part of your sprite and made it look better than that one up there in an incredibly inefficient way.

Figure out the more advanced methods yourself(they are so simple to figure out, too), or have someone else tell you.

How's that for on topic, eh?

Leave it to the damn staff, for Christ-sakes. :P

But back on topic,
The recoloring method you use still, clashes horribly with the style of the battler and sprite. Try the method I gave you, or at least explore a bit.

Sorry for the off-topicness, but I gotta say this:

I was adding something to your list, just to say: "Hey, this is a good program too. Maybe you can consider including it in your list the next time?"

I tried rplaceing the color but it sucked and it was hard for me to tell what the hell i was doing because the pic thingy was black and white in the recoloring window

Thing is, I told you I don't need it, so if you were a normal person, you'd leave it at that. But sadly, you are not normal; you're just annoying.

Lol, I just wanted to explain why I told it you, but you didn't get it, at least, that's what I got from your posts. But whatever, I'll leave it at that, as you wish.

OT: How about renaming the first spoiler to 'Character sets'? That sounds clearer, at least to me :D.
