Now, this is my Rocket Launcher Skin, I'm not asking for any ratings, because I know it sucks giant monkey balls, but I havn't seen a RL skin after many days of searching, so I figured I'd make a light Camo one. No flaming please, I know it sucks xD

*Edit*

Changed the skin to have a little more detail, brings out the camo a little bit more which can be a plus or a downside. The barrel still look stretched out still, but it looks perfectly fine once equipped. Hope it's a little more appearable xD

If you say it sucks like "giant monkey balls", then don't release it. People on Halomods don't want skins that suck, they want skins that look good and worth using. Try making a new skin, and before you start posting it, ask yourself "Do I like this skin?" and "Would others like this skin aswell?"

Hmm... I personally don't mind it myself, but I knew no-one else would. I can try and remake it and if I make it any bettar I'll upload it, but otherwise this apparently has to stay...

Honestly doesn't surprise me. My aplogies, it's really, really late here and I'm FAR from all the way here.


BTW, the size limit only applies for sigs/pictures uploaded from machines, not linked, cause it doesn't matter otherwise. At least not of my knowledge.

um excellent advice asking yourself if you like it and if others will like it, and as a general guideline corrupted bitmaps are never liked

oh trust me it matters, especially when your new sig is "sig limit is 500x120 pixels and 75 kb"

Mkk, but if the mod who chance my sig woulda looked, I change it to the correct size. The file size was 108MB though, that's the only thing. Next time try to look xD

*Edit*

Sig problem fixt... yeah...

Anyhow, I tried to fix the stretchy looking barrel, but no matter what I did it didn't change :/

Looks like you got a picture of camo, or made one in photoshop, and just directly converted to dds in the wrong dimensions so it looks pixelized.

yeah, used camo with PS CS3 and created is a pattern. Saved it in the same dimensions as it came in though, so Iunno... Sorry, I figured I'd try something, I havn't seen a single rocket launcher skin yet, so I tried. And failed apparently :/
