• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

How do you recolour?

^Why? It takes longer, and there's more chance for error! Unless your'e talking about non-solid recolors.

Well, since I use Photoshop: Anti-contiguous zero-tolerance not anti-aliased paint bucket.
In English: Eraser trick. But with the paint bucket.
 
What do you mean eraser trick, sorry if I sound stupid but i'm not a major spriter.
I don't do solid recolours.
 
I use the eraser trick for normal recolors, pixel-by-pixel for advanced (not just color-swap) recolors. I find the eraser trick can be very helpful on outlines, as it's easy to skip over some...
 
there's no way in hell I *would*, but it'd be a super-easy command line deal using imagemagick
 
It's not very challenging and it doesn't take a whole lot of skill to do it. All you need is either a) people telling you what colors they want or b) realizing what colors don't look bad with another.
 
Select by Colour, Fill with Foreground Colour. In simple terms, Shift and O, Ctrl and - and ,. Yay GIMP.

*incidently i only just realised that all the menus in GIMP are in British English :D*
