Tutorial: How to make an Icon/Game Sheet - gabrielwoj - 09-16-2010
Hi, it's my first tutorial here, much people don't know the TSR program to create the images...
I'm here to teach how to make an icon...
First of all, get the model:

![[Image: ICON-MODEL-1.png]](http://i867.photobucket.com/albums/ab234/gabrielwoj/Spriters%20Resource/ICON-MODEL-1.png){kind=icon}
Them, put on your image editor, for example, I will use Paint.NET...

^This what you will need for start your image!

Just an example! And some tips, for sure!
The sprite was a little bigger, but what depends it's your sheet...
Sometimes when you have big images (backgrounds an example) you can resize... Isn't much recommended, but it's allowed
Write on the center of the Title, like, Megaman, on the sprite... Also, if your sheet is bigger than 10MB, is recommend you put "[10MB/15MB...]
Now, if you're making a new game sheet, sure you get some model right?

Put the full game tittle at the title...
^this is Transparent
Now, it's the same process... Verdana with the colors 248/248/248....
Some recommendations for your game sheet:
On the image, put some part of gameplay, not from your sheet... Or just an tittle screen...
You can use any image editor from your pc! Just follow the steps...
That's all, it's an simple tutorial...
Don't forget the models!
If you're a bit trouble, post it here... Them I can help you!
Thanks...

Almost irrelevant, we got this thread: http://spriters-resource.com/community/showthread.php?tid=6534
It got the PNG templates with all specifications , a java applet (with tutorial) and the Corel Paint Shop Pro templates. But if you want to create Photoshop templates instead, feel free to do so and host it
