It's really up to you what size you are making them. Go with template size if you really don't now what size you want.

You are probably using skin.ini from other skin.
Open skin.ini and find line "Version:1", delete it or change to "Version:2"

Hahah, it's okay, don't worry and sure here's the ranking letter I made

This is how it look in Photoshop

And this is how it looks in game

I never had this problem with skins I used before this one, the thing i want is just that the 'animation' is not standing that far to the right as it is now.

Ah I see, with new skin behaviour position of letters were moved a little to the right.

Just move whole picture to the bottom left corner without changing canvas of it.

While making followpoints, I noticed that they're spaced more apart with HR mod. Here is a screenshot to show what i mean:
I can just make the trail longer and it works quite well, but the images are overlaping without HR, in this case it's fine, because it's not so noticable. But I wonder wheter there is some way around it if you don't want the images to overlap.

It's best to keep it the same size as in the default skin template. Here is a template (for @2x, small version is just 2x smaller) with approximate locations of text and stars.

I haven't tested it, but this should do it if you set it as the width of your numbers.

Because it still have white border. (You probably created white letter and just painted it with fill tool).
Easiest way to fix this : Select "Colours" tab and find there "Colour to alpha", select colour (white is by default) and confirm.


For creating nicer circles, use feather edges option.

Okay, so here is what I have done so far.
Made 3 templates that should correct any problems with missing texts on backgrounds and make things readable.
Easiest way to use them, simply put your picture under template layer. One thing, template of search-background is in 1024x768 resolution so for widescreen use, you only need to change it's width canvas (workspace) to 1229px to make it fit correctly. And download : Template Backgrounds

And of course example how they looks.

Please tell me if these are okay, maybe I missed something? If these are fine I can add them to normal skin template.

Edit: Updated template skin. Added these background templates.
the menu-background.jpg is loading but the: [search-background.jpg], [matchsetup-background.jpg] and the [lobby-background] is not loading

Adding outer glow will almost always make your picture less pixelated and remove sharp edges.

hi, i just have a slight skin problem with sliders. both of these screenshots are 2 different skins



in this picture above the regular single notes and sliders BOTH have black inside of them while in this picture below



the regular single notes have black inside of them but the slider does not.

can anyone tell me how to make it so both the slider and single note have the black inside of them? i can't seem to make the slider have that black inside like the single notes do.

some stuff i tried: ( played around with both skins)
1.) "approachcircle" same in both
2.) "playfield" same in both
3.) "sliderb0" same in both
4.) "hitcircle" same in both
5.) "hitcircleoverlay" same in both

Maybe the black inside is because that area is transparent, don't you think?. I can see that in the first picture the slider color is black, then being the hitcircle transparent its have that color. But in the second picture the slider color isn't black. You can change the slider color of your skin in the ini with the SliderTrackOverride, that force a slider track to a certain colour. I'm pretty sure that's the problem.

It must be SliderTrackOverride, nothing else can change colour of slider.

Make sure that in skin.ini it doesn't have "//" before.

And if it still doesn't work, provide both skins or something.

because of my stretching issue :p


does it means taiko-bar-right isn't widescreen-compatible?

you mean, filling out the bar by stretching it?

What resolution you are using in game?

I have a few questions...

Okay so ever since I was a noob, the first non default skin I used was a skin I mixed and matched around because I didn’t like how one skin had one part but I liked this other part etc.
But recently I started altering the skins to more of my likings. Now to the point where I created some parts by myself with the help of a base.
I have a few questions because I’m nervous of calling it a skin I made all by myself and reassurance.

1) Is it okay if my skin resembles other skins?
I’ve seen on osu! Skin forums where people are using the same follow point I see everywhere (the one where it looks like a line) without crediting. Did they make it themselves and it’s okay to have it look almost exactly the same except it’s remade by the poster?
I’ve also noticed that most of my ideas have been made already except maybe slightly different after looking around at other things. Is it okay or do I need to make a full on makeover?

2) How do you make hitsounds?
I know what I want for menu-click, failsound etc. But the ones for play is the ones I’m not sure. Did people take them from other free music sites and alter them? Where/how did they find such sounds? Or do they make them themselves? How is each sound suppose the sound like? (I can’t find a download the default skin apparently. There probably isn’t any. So I can’t have a proper template to figure it out)

That’s pretty much my fears and concerns for it. Any help?
OsuMe65
1) Yes. As long as the element DOESN'T PERFECTLY MATCH another element.
Some of the skinners here ask permission to the original authors for some elements. Some of them replicates an element (like me in some cases) and some of them places an element that he/she didn't create for the sake of his/her skin (illegal here, but not in userpages and signatures).

2) Google is your best friend if you don't like to do the hitsounds in a hard way. The template skin is also your best friend too. Some of us (RARELY... I MEAN IT...) uses a Digital Audio Workstation / DAW in making hitsounds. Best examples of these are FL Studio and Cubase. If you want to know the actual sounds of the default skin, simply go to the first page of this thread. There's 2 download links available; the choice is still yours.

They are HD images meant for resolutions higher than some resolution I am unsure of. They are 2x the resolution of non-@2x files which allows for them to look better in higher resolution game windows.
