vesper, if you have a tutorial I'd love to make some, I use gimp, and although Im not very good I'm sure I'll get it :D, then I'd help out (although Not very much since Im playing twilight princess :D)
I'll get to work on a tutorial in a little while, too bad this isn't my thread so it was posted there.

In the mean time, people requesting icons, should go to the official thread of the character you want, supporters there usually have a lot of them.

Lol I know how to make sigs but I'm horrid at it, I used to do sprite animations, those were fun, as well as rain effects.

Anybody know what font it is that everyone uses for making these?

I think this is a great idea, BTW. I spent a looot of time looking for the thread where everyone gets these from before realizing that there was no such thread. :/

here's everything:

1. "stickers" are 100px x 48px
2. find an image of the character
3. crop him out, if you want (this is probably the only part that needs a real tutorial)
4. add a background layer
5. add the border & inner frame
6. add text.

optional:
i see some people adding opaque shape layers to make their stickers look more like buttons.

i know not everyone has photoshop, but that's the program it's easiest to do in.

I need a bit more than that, mainly the text used and where to download it from :|

Yeah, I can't find the text used. I looked through every font I had, but couldn't find the right one.

Tutorial and ZSamus signature icon.





You're supposed to have a little knowledge on photoshop (another image editing program but paint can also work) to pull this off, hopefully this tutorial can help you, any questions, feel free to ask.

Thank you sir. Most appreciated.

TO VESPERVIEW: You're the pro at this and I'm terrible at photoshop, plus i dont have it on ly laptop, so could you possibly make me a Ristar icon, if you have time? I know he wont be in brawl but i love that guy.

Raul just tell me where the image is and I'll make it an image for you.

Lol, No its not that, I was trying to add them to my sig on the forum, but its not working. I was trying to grab the bomberman one, so i clicked the web address and when I right clicked and went to properties, nothing came up for me to copy and paste in my sig. I know how to do it, but for whatever reason, it isn't happening for me.

This is what I did in my sig ...

OMFG so true I love tales of symphonia. I'll make one for him later (although I'd rather it was someone else not him). Either way He probably wouldn't make it in, since there are tons of swordsmen in the game already.

Save the picture to your computer go to www.tinypic.com and upload it, there you'll get the code.
