already went to your skins site earlier :) and yes, epidermis emporium does have the crappy versions of your skins. I have a question for you, bluesonnet. Is there an easy way to make an entire skin a solid color? (like the shadowguard). i want to do this to a skin.

If you mean all blue like the shadow guard or all purple like the shadow wraith then yeah there is a way. I used paintshop pro for this but you can do this photoshop too.

What i do is firstly make the sure the main colour (as in for colouring in with the paintbrush\pencil or paintbucket) is the sane as that bright bluey greeny colour used for the sprite background. Then i go to colours and then increase the amount of colours 16 million. I then go to colorize in colours then change the colour of the image to a specific colour (red for example). Then, using the paintbucket i fill the back groundound with that same lightblue colour. Alternatively you could just highlight the bit you wanna change with the wand tool (or it's similar tools) and in 16 million colour mode colorize it there. I recommend you do this for the dieng gib animations so that blood isn't off colour too. Either way when you're done change the colours back to 256 (nearest colour etc). Then save and do the same for all the other sprites.

A few pointers.
. Make sure the colours is in 256 when you insert them into the wad because if it is in 16 million colours the colours will be in reverse when yiou use them ingame. Nasty.
. If you're using photoshop instead, just go image and increase colours decrease colours when switching the amount of colours and hue \saturation for changing colours.

Any more questions feel free to ask :)
