[Tutorial] How to create and save bodies

[cbk1994]

Awesome, thanks Dusty. I've never been able to do this myself, that's a huge help. Rep ++ [edit: after I spread ]

gif2mng.exe /b bodyimage.png

Would fix the palette of bodyimage.png to work correctly on Graal, even adding transparency. Still, nice tutorial (:

Sorry but I have no idea what this means, could you give some instructions or something? I just drag the image into the exe file, but that doesn't seem to fix bodies, only heads.

Open up the Windows command line tool (cmd.exe), browse to the location of gif2mng.exe, make sure the body is in the same folder. Then, write and execute the following:
gif2mng.exe /b <INSERT_BODY_IMAGE>

"Fixes" the palette and adds transparency (doesn't work sometimes, I recommend a background color of #008000).

I've often always just dragged the image onto gif2mng, and never knew there were such parameters... at least they're not very well documented.
