Thread for my new skin w/ tiles (and maybe other stuff)If you eventually run out of tint colors, there are pattern masks that you can use.Sometimes I used text set to a color, but most of the time I used a 16x16 bitmap as the reference color that tiles itself.I used both methods (opaque 0 to 255) or (2... |
