I've been attempting an MLB skin akw4572. I'm not the most computer graphic wiz out here but what I have so far is decent. If anyone has a decent pic for the default photo for the background and for the message box it'd be apreciated.

Well I had last night off work and stayed up most of the day too and almost have the MLB Skin done. I am very impressed at how this looks considering this is the first graphic project I have ever attempted besides getting rid of the transparent black in logos. I'm a perfectionist when it comes to things and thats why its taken me so long to do this. All I have left to finish is the Main screen when OOTP starts up and the vs. screen. I don't think I'll do the credits screen cause I don't think too many people venture to that but if enough people want me to do that too after you see how things look I'm sure I can pull it out. I'd say two or three days tops and it'll be done. Where am I able to upload it to for people to download? Baseball Sim Central? Also one quick question. While I was fooling around figuring things out while making this I seemed to have done something wrong. When I look at my team schedule screen where the words "Promotion" or "Box" etc. should be it is like pure white. The words are highlighted when I go over them but otherwise I can't see them. Any suggestions? I tried everything. Hope everyone enjoys this as I did making it. Only thing that sucked is that I haven't been able to play the game in about two weeks.

I can post some screen shots if someone could tell me how. Thanks.

akw4572 · 05-10-2003, 07:41 PM

i don't know how to post a screenshot out of the game.......sorry. Can anyone help out?

couriers · 05-10-2003, 07:48 PM

Take a screen shot by using the Print Screen key.
Open MS Paint and select Paste.
Save picture as a BMP and upload to a server.
Include link in post by using the IMG tag, which is an option when posting.

or

Save picture as a JPG or GIF and it will upload to the 400 server.

JoeRockEHF · 05-10-2003, 11:25 PM

Cool, thanks Couriers. I'll have the pics up tonight in a few. I'm also done with the skin so I'll be uploading somewhere soon. Probably Baseball Sim Central. Thanks!

couriers · 05-11-2003, 12:30 AM

Excellent. I am looking forward to checking it out. Good luck with the screen shots and the upload.

I think I am going to be setting up a Mods directory similiar to Adventure Ran's since he is unable to do so for now. I would keep it up as long as the web space doesnt exceed what I'm allowed. Is this something worthwhile?

JoeRockEHF · 05-11-2003, 08:28 AM

Sounds pretty good to me.

akw4572 · 05-11-2003, 09:05 AM

i think it would be great too. Thanks in advance eagle eye. Anyone got that mlb skin done?

JoeRockEHF · 05-11-2003, 11:37 AM

akw4572, finished it last night and sent it to Baseball Sim Central. Its not up there yet so I emailing the skin to you. I made a thread below you can leave your comments and feedback on. Thanks.

How much server space are you allowed? To make it worth your time it needs to be well over 100 megs or so. I ask this because space is always a concern of mine since I have so little. I had considered getting a website just for this reason and am curious how much space you think would be necessary.

EagleEye_0 · 05-12-2003, 01:42 AM

I have 500 megs of space at Powweb, number of files would probably be a problem before space.

couriers · 05-12-2003, 03:02 AM

I'll have to check Powweb out. Thanks.
