Two questions about presets (or help)

[palmknife]

I just got interested making a preset so..
This one is about public and private presets;

If I make a preset, how would I make it public? Like everyone would see it without downloading it.


This one is about the fur coloring;

If I color the preset without shade/fur, would it go with fur and shade? Or I need to draw the shade and fur?

man im too new at these

PS; I use gimp for these.

Question #1: For other players to see your preset in game, you must export it in preset maker. Then go into your "presets" folder and find the .fhp file that says your username (ex: Yanchan_5.fhp) and upload it to a site such as Mediafire, then post the link to the download for everyone to get it.

Question #2: There are a lot of fur textures available to download and use on DA or you can simply use the default fur textures.

I'm just going to add on about using a fur texture in case you don't know...

You can use any fur texture you want as Arctic stated. Just bring it into your preset's GIMP file as a new layer and set it to Multiply for layer mode. It should then become an overlay on your preset and give it a "fur" appearance.

There are also some tutorials on YouTube that go over preset making, even for special presets that are asymmetrical or have glowing markings. Just look them up in case ya get a little lost floof.

I'll go ahead and lock this up now since the author seems pretty content with the answers given ^^'
