1.) Making presets is not always an easy process, and things only get harder with every effect you want to add (scrolling, metallic, glowing, etc etc).
2.) Items are
NOT included with presets. Items are a completely different ball-game because that requires much more complicated programming and rendering skills. Presets only affect the skin of your character.
Please don't ask to add items onto your character.3.) It's fairly easy to change the number of your preset, so if you want the files placed in a different folder I ask you please do that yourself.
4.) Never tamper with the coding files or file extensions unless you
know how to, you do this at your own risk.
5.) I sometimes leave XCF files in the preset folders but they're not required for the preset to work, you can delete these at your own risk.
6.) If you want others to see your preset you'll have to take the liberty of offering everyone the FHP file or synchronizing your account, please don't ask me to distribute it.
7.) NEVER take artwork from others for a preset unless you have permission to do so!
Video TutorialsMyth's Preset Video TutorialsRules:1.) Show respect! I know that this rule is a given, but I work hard on these presets, I wouldn't like having to walk into the shop then see an unappreciative customer.
2.) Be patient! I have a life outside of this thread and sometimes it's just too important to neglect. If your name is on that list, you can guarantee you'll get a preset, but if it takes longer than expected, please don't have a panic attack in the posts.
3.) Be considerate! I make presets, not miracles, so only make requests within my capabilities please!
4.) If I tell you something can't be done, try to understand that there are truly some things you can't do in a preset, whether it's coding, items, etc.
5.) Limit of 1 request per round.
6.) I refuse to do presets that involve stealing markings from FH. For example: You can easily make a cheetah that has red hair and white fur etc etc in the FH character creator. I WILL NOT make something like this in a preset. Want scrolly rainbow spots and a missing leg? Talk to me then.
7.) {NEW RULE} Be absolutely certain you want the preset you're requesting. I get easily exhausted by people who request presets just to add them to a massive collection. I recommend only asking to have presets made for characters that you frequently use.
8.) {NEW RULE} Please don't request on a whim. Consideration is key. It's unfair to ask me to make you a preset and then forgot you ever did in the first place--that's extra space on my computer for YOUR stuff. Your request--your responsibility.
"Take It Or Leave It"If you request something and never return, I'm afraid I
will make it public for everyone. Now I'm not going to do it if you're a week late, but I've decided to add a 3 month... "expiration date" on your preset approval. If you take more than 3 months to approve a preset, I will make it available for download so it's not harboring in my documents never to see the light of virtual day again.
There will be a date (in mm/dd/yy format) written in red next to the name, that is its "expiration date". The day after the one given, it will posted in the forum for others to download. I'm sorry if you don't agree with this rule, but think about the presets, poor things can't be covered in little pixelated dust bunnies in my folder, can they? ;-;
Quoting Rules (Please Read):1.) Don't quote the first post, it's just unnecessary page stretching. I know it sounds stupid to be finnicky about it, but it's one of my pet peeves.
2.) If you want to quote me, please don't quote the photo too (from now on at least). If you're not sure how to quote, use this code:
[quote] Your stuff here! [/quote]
(There's also a handy "Quote" button at the top-right of each post).
If you want to quote something I said, or someone else said, just copy and paste their words between the (quote) and the (/quote).
3.) If you want to change something you said, don't re-post, just go back to your previous one and edit it (yes, that's possible if you didn't know). The edit button is in the top right of your post.
4.) If you do have a long quote, use a spoiler button so it can be hidden. Use this code:
[spoiler=] Your stuff here! [/spoiler]
Just put what you need to hide between the (spoiler=) and the (/spoiler).
5.) I ask that you PLEASE follow these rules. I don't mind making presets, but I'd LOVE it if you guys at least tried to keep the thread tidy!
