Making your own Markings for FeralHeart

Making a new marking for FeralHeart is more simple than you think. Here are some steps to make a marking -

- Basic -
1. Make sure you have a painting program, such as, Photoshop or Gimp. Gimp click that and download it. (It's free)

2. Make sure you know what kind of marking you want, either Canine, Feline, or both. If you have a sample already of the marking, then that will help you lots.

- Getting warm -
1. Go ahead and open up your painting program. And open a file of another Default FH marking. Computer>C: Drive>FeralHeart>Textures.

2. Now, use a brush and choose the color black and totally wipe the Default marking away, and go up to File>Save AS>c/fmarkmarkingnameBody/Head/Tail.png (Capitalization matters! And make sure you SAVE AS, not just SAVE.

- Almost there! -
1. Open the file you just saved and close the Default marking, and if it says "Do you want to save?" Say no!

2. Use the eraser tool and draw your marking you drew already(maybe).

3. Open up FeralHeart, go to Tools>Preset Maker>V

- YOU DID IT DUDE -
1. Click Custom and go to III.

2. Select the new marking. Spin the character around to see how it looks. Then color it.

I hope this helps, if anyone needs pictures, just ask in the comments or inbox me. ^^

Is it imperative you use a default marking to start with?

Well, no not really, but I find it more useful and easier. So you don't need to make the transparent layer.

Oh, ok. I figured out the problem I had had, I had put the wrong coding. I tend to put colons where semicolons go in my english papers, figures it should carry over to coding too.
