What are the best graphic tools for making battlers and stuff?
top 10 or 5 lists would be appreciated

1. Photoshop, my best tool.
2. Open Canvas, if you use pen tablet for sketches.
3. Corel Draw, fast work for hand-mouse.
4. Graphics gale, it's free.
5. Face maker, if you're too lazy.

Many more though, but these are my best.

ooook $699 for photoshop...
i cant exactly pull that out of thin air... and the trial will take over 2 hours to download and thats with broadband!
now on to "open canvas"

I can give you the keygen for photoshop.
But yeah, downloading the trial is a pain if your connection is slow.

OP will be better, and I think you should ask Lord Dante bout OP trial or crack thingy.
He's a loyal user of OP.

<EDIT>And don't double post~!

cool!
that would help alot, right now im fiddling around with open canvas and its ok, im makin a small evil mushroom from scratch. i might upload it when im done lol
but the photoshop crack would be perfect! save $700 which would probably be about $900 AUD. if you give me the keygen ill definitly get the trial even if it takes 2 or more hours.
btw the mushroom is my first enemy drawn for RMXP.

Ok, I'll PM you later.
Once you're done, show it to me! I can't make monsters...I can only make cute monsters. ;__;

This is one of my battlers, done with photoshop. ^^

Check the gallery too! There are many tuts on how to draw using tools!

for a non aggresive lookin battler, thats not bad graphics
i was gonna say i lost my mushroom but i remembered where it was ?

Edit: Dang its too big... im gona resize it...

Re-Edit: There we go! btw i used open canvas and made my firs enemy ?

*chuckle*

Not bad for first try, but rather than scary, I find it cute somehow. ^___^
Photoshop has lot of tools and filters, if you can use it well...it'll be your best weapon~~

Good luck.

thanks
the mushroom was rushed though

about 5 mins
now i just gotta download photoshop for the next 2 hours...

You could always download The gimp, its like photoshop but free

just go to gimp.org i think it is only 12MB or so lol

here are some signatures i have made for my friends on starwars sites lol.

Random ones:

Hope that helps lol

Zylos · February 06, 2008, 12:21:31 AM

@Moritat- I believe A13x would have downloaded photoshop by now, so it would be pointless to go and download gimp too, unless Emidy couldn't give A13x the keygen for some reason. On a side note, did you draw the characters in the signatures yourself or did you just made the backgrounds to them? I'm just curious.

Moritat · February 06, 2008, 12:30:28 AM

I rendered the pics and made the backgrounds

i drew this last night though, lol its a self protrate.
