Alright, if you're still checking this, FretFlyer, could I get a picture without the glasses? I can add them, but the eyes would still be visible from an angle and I don't know what colour to make them.
As for you, Alice, just use your best judgement when requesting skins. If I seem bogged-down and slow, maybe hold off on the requests, but if I'm all caught up, feel free to give me one or two.
And just to show you guys I'm not completely dead, here are the incomplete skins I have so far:
CJ:
I tried something interesting with this one, I made it so that it would work as a human skin, too, though it does make you look rather pants-less, due to the shirt.
Blinkstep:I know it looks like a big mass of white here, but I do think I got the mane and snuzzle right. Those were really the only parts I had trouble with. The tail will have a slightly more "jagged" look to it in the next resolution, once I have the room to work with it. I'll also add those leg bands if you want.
Also I think I accidentally gave your skin a mare gender. Oops.
OMG its so pretty right now ![]()
can't wait until the final result ![]()
one quick thing though: can you put portal guns on her sides and a tie? and color tie will do, and please make her shirt a VERY LIGHT BLUE... i'll upload another pic for you to see... dont bother fixing the mane though. its great ![]()
there's a link, all the colours you used are fine.. like I said before, don't bother fixing the mane as it's perfect already.

May you make the OC I drew? I want him to be a unicorn, HD, a short, stubby, spikey tail? and sorry if it's too much but I'd love him to have some pink and black socks almost all the way up on all of his legs? Sorry if this post is too detailed or messy but your work just looks beautiful and I'd really love it if you could make mine.
His cutie mark is the classic Macintosh mouse

If you want any more details just let me know. Thank you so much for just reading this!
Edit: Female looking pony with a hot pinkish horn glow in the same style as my website

Like I said earlier, I doubt I could make an ASHPD recognisable at this resolution. It's really something that needs to either be modelled or done at a 512 or 1024 resolution. The tie and shirt I can do, though, even though I'm already done with your skin.
can you plz do the tie and shirt? and one more thing: you know the skin is a REGULAR PONY SIZED ALICORN AND A MARE. right?
Posted 07 December 2013 - 08:02 PM
I'd like the leg bands. Please Stallion ^.^
Posted 07 December 2013 - 10:03 PM

It should definetly help with the skin.

For the size, no, I did not realise she was normal-sized. Her legs were long enough in the images you sent me to suggest that she is alicorn-sized. And did I set the snuzzle to male? I'm terribly sorry about that, I didn't realise. I'll change it right away.
thanks again, its just the pony looks... fat when I do it show style. she just looks much much better with slender legs.
yes, the snuzzle was set to stallion XD
thanks again, if you would like I can join your shop and do SD skinning.
lot's of SD fans out there still.
but I still want the skin to be HD... and not to be picky, can you make the eyes 2-3 pixels taller? they are a bit TOO round, oval eyes are more like it. that's also helpful for any other skinning you do now.
thanks~
I can wait another week if it needs be.

You see that anklet in the last link I sent you?
Could you give my pony one of those, lower leg, front right, with a cyan gem :u
EDIT: I don't really know what is the best resolution.
I guess that 1024x(forgot the other number)
._.
Also, I want it in HD. If HD isn't possible or it doesn't look good in the end, make it whatever other format you want.

The other one might not get it in time, because I had a confusion with the first thing, so she will probably make the first bad one and not even see the second so I posted here.

ok... um... are you able to make them eyeballs slightly taller on the final resolution? It's just I find it more "My little pony" style.

Posted 10 December 2013 - 06:58 PM
From what I can see, it looks right.
Yeah, check again. I put the skin on, it turned into a human skin.
I asked her for an alicorn size, and alicorn race ._.

Alright, since I can't remember which ones asked in which order and I'm too lazy to check the thread, I do the skins in alphabetical order. Here are the skins I am going to be doing:Fix CJ's skinsUpdate Lulu's (Skype client) skins to match the changes to her OC
Do Saphhire Blue's skins up to 256. If I encounter issues with my work on the design, I might stop at 128.
Smokey Stroke's skins (up to 256)
Upgrade Tudexd's SD skin
That looks to be everyone! If I missed anyone, let me know and I'll check my files and the thread.

Thank goodness it is! A skin of that detail level would probably need a 4096x2048 skin, four times as large as the biggest skin I've ever seen offered. ![]()
To imagine the size of that skin, imagine an old CRT computer monitor. Now imagine four of them. That's how big the skin would be.

I'm a terrible person. I should be working on your skins, but instead I made one of my own. I happened upon the Scootabot Tumblr blog and I just had to make a Scootabot skin. v..v Anyway, screenies and stuff, I guess, so you can at least see what it looks like:
Made HD for it, too, even though I really should be doing your stuff. I'm actually probably done for now, I just need someone to wear the HD skin so I can take screenshots and submit it to Scootabot's blog as fan art. If Scootabot features it on their blog, I'll upload the skin here.
And really, if you watch me making the skins, I feel better and want to do them. Add me on Skype! Let's chat while I work on your skin, or someone else's skin, or anything!

Posted 18 December 2013 - 01:43 AM
Okay, so I checked and saw that, no, CJ, your skin wasn't male. o..o That was a female snuzzle data pixel. I'm adding eyelashes on your new skin just to be sure people know it's a girl, though. I have to admit I don't know how eyelashes work on these skins, but hopefully my attempt wasn't too bad:
I included two versions of the shirt in case one is too dark/vivid. I also made the eyes taller. Hope you like it.

Cemis What do you use to make HD skins
-Twilight
Posted 19 December 2013 - 02:11 AM
I use the GNU Image Manipulation Program. It's not as easy to use as a skin editor, but after you get used to the layout of the skin, it's easy enough to figure out.
Except for the wings, I recently found out... *shudder*
See, I'd been doing them adequately all this time, the work passable, I just figured that the skin template for the wing was wrong where it gets all jumbled after the first section, but it turns out the wings are skinned even more dumbly than I first thought, as their mapping is convoluted and counter-intuitive to the max. A seemingly-random section of the wing is chosen to form the ends of the feathers, the stripe above the feathers covers cubes instead of the entire shape, and the texture doesn't even cover the entire area. Previously I thought that the four sections of the wing down there were just the four faces of the rectangular prism, but now I realise it is much more complicated, and the only way to figure it out is to go into the game and fly to see the wings open, since that part on the end doesn't show up otherwise. ![]()
I've never liked the way they decided to map the wings, even before when I thought it was simpler than it is. I've always thought it was stupidly complicated when it could be really friggin simple. Use the first three sections of the wing to map the FACE of the wing, with the fourth section being the top and bottom of each feather. The repetition is small enough that it will not show up on skins, allowing Changeling characters to have holes in their wings without it being so obvious the way the wing only has one texture for the outward-facing part of the feather. Alternatively, use all four sections to map each face of the feather like I thought they were doing, then I just have so many issues with the wings and it frustrates me when I think about how it was done. I don't even see any technical advantage to it, especially considering there is still plenty of white space they could have utilised for the rest of those smaller wing parts! ![]()
Other than my wing-related frustrations, the rest of the skin's mapping makes perfect sense, given what they had to work with, and I like the way it is made. HD skins have some quirks that could be addressed, but it's not important because really, who uses HD skins, amirite? ![]()

OK.....
not trying to be overly picky or anything, but....
The mane is too short, the sleeves should go almost to her hooves, if it's not too much trouble try to makew the shirt more light blue than it is, she needs the apeture labs logo on her tie, she's the size of a NORMAL MARE, not an alicorn size, her mane is a darker shade of blue slighty and the forlock is like luna's but off to one side.
Sorry to be so picky but the mane... its just... herrrmm........ I wish I could make the skin as easily as SD skins ):
but it's ok...
The eyes are perfect, though =3

*takes deep breath*
Sprry, but I had a brainwave that MGIHT seem SLIGHTLY offensive, but no offence is intended.
I love the way your skins look, but you keep making her mane, well, how can I put this...
INCORRECT. there. so, here's my plan:
Get somebody who has decent images of my OC to make the skin, then have you REMAKE said skin so it turns out exactly as I want.
if not, let me know, you don't have to make this skin for me if you dont feel like it.
but hang on to that eye style, it fits a mare perfectly. the rounded eyes better suit a stallion/colt.
Posted 03 January 2014 - 01:36 PM
I've never been good with hair, and manes are even more complicated because they sprout from just a thin line instead of covering the area.
Another suggestion is that you add me on Skype and bug me to work on it. I can let you watch me make it and you can make suggestions in real-time to help it turn out right, rather than after I've finished.
Posted 04 January 2014 - 02:44 AM
im just going to give you an HD skin, you can remake it.
Posted 05 January 2014 - 01:22 AM
OK, I HOPE THIS HELPS YOU.
Make the front part of CJ's mane EXACTLY like Luna's mane but has the purple tip.
try that. and REGULAR MARE SIZED! CJ IS ONLY THE SAME SIZE AS APPLEJACK OR FLUTTERSHY!!
Posted 09 January 2014 - 06:36 AM
Did you give me an HD skin? I don't see it if you did. ![]()
Posted 12 January 2014 - 12:15 AM
Nope, there's no skin there! And he's banned now, so he'll get off your back. I thought the skins you made for him were lovely. So lovely, in fact, that once you're off hold, I'll be requesting a skin myself!
Keep it up, I really love your skinning style.
Posted 12 January 2014 - 04:56 AM
Oh, well thanks! I honestly have been slacking off more than CJ has been asking for changes. This lack of motivation is probably why I was diagnosed with depression, despite my cheerful look at life. I go to start doing them, then something disappoints me and I feel unmotivated again. Oh, well! I'll just have to suck it up and do them anyway. ![]()
Edit: Also I'm thinking about just closing up shop and moving it somewhere less populated so I don't feel like crap for not doing people's skins. I wanted to get them all done in time for any Christmas events servers may have had, but that didn't work out, then New Years, and I still haven't done them... If I do decide I've had enough before opening the shop again, I'll do a "last rounds" of sorts, letting as many people request as they want within the time period given, then close after that and do their skins.
Edited by Cemis, 12 January 2014 - 07:41 AM.
Posted 14 January 2014 - 04:26 PM
You could always close this shop and start up a new one so you don't have as many requests, then say that there should only be so many (3?) requests at once.
Posted 19 February 2014 - 11:45 PM
Alright, if anyone is still waiting for their skins, know that I'm working on them once more. I'm also looking for an artist to help me with a project unrelated to skins... (hopefully I won't need to pay for the help)

Please don't request in shops currently on hold.
Posted 08 June 2014 - 03:54 PM
Okay so I lied. I am no longer working on this.
A few reasons for this, chief among them being the fact that any time I think about making skins I lock up because I feel like I've disappointed. I still make skins occasionally (in fact I've continued work on my own skin and made a couple for some close friends) but for the most part I'm out of it.
On top of this I lost most of your OC pictures when my other computer stopped running. I could go through the thread and find them but not really because I'm lazy and I'm sure a few of them have expired or whatever it is images do when they exist for too long. Too lazy to check, as mentioned moments ago.
I'll just be closing this. If you really want a skin done in my style, come find me over at Cloudsdale Gaming. It's got an Enjin-hosted forum where you can find me under the name "Thrackerzod".
