Emm..... Sorry to post this again. After I see your awesome work at upscaling the image, I truly want to request again. Ummm..... I find another Bg that suited for a specific diff at the same map -> https://osu.ppy.sh/s/301246 but I.... couldn't find the source. I only found the map that has it in it -> https://osu.ppy.sh/s/166244 but the resolution isn't 1366 x 768 ;_; so, I need your brilliant work to help me settle this (>///<)7
~Thank you~

ty and bye

This is my map here

The link to BG is in the map description.

I re-sized it myself but I feel it does not work well with map.

Can you make BG more suitable or find a new one completely?

Btw I'll be afk for 2 days.

Hi!!


I'm mapping a song from The Fairly OddParents and the bg I have is quite nice but I don't like it 100% and it doesn't have too much in common with the song. The quality is not so good too. Maybe you could find a background that fits better the song and looks good please? I tried a lot to find but everything I find is people making covers and some no-related to song pictures :(

I don't know the original link for this bg since Bakari gave me it in a .rar file with his gd.
But I uploaded it with push: http://puu.sh/jdZq2/be8a0fec39.jpg

hope you can help me with this

Different request, I'm not too sure if I wanna PM you for it, but it's for audio.
I'm trying to find better quality mp3 for https://osu.ppy.sh/s/332443
Full vers. doesn't work, because the short version isn't just cropped off, it has its own ending

Thank you 8-)

It's more of a request to put in this video that's ridiculously large and can't be submitted with it .3.

Also here's the thing that's not avi (but it has sound n stuff so yeah): http://puu.sh/jISWN/9f6193062d.mp4

Hi there, I would like a bg image edit for this

https://osu.ppy.sh/s/319821

Truthfully, nothing is wrong with it, except the line 'Notecharted by: Pulse' which I kinda need changed to Cryolien. I used to go by 'Pulse' in other games, but not in osu!.

Thanks in advance, have a nice day

Hello once again! I have to request on this map again :

https://osu.ppy.sh/s/342603

The video file size is way too big, it may be too big for slow internet environments...
Thanks in advance!

Hi there,

I think it is rankable but i am not 100% sure (after last Koigokoro DQ issue). Thanks for feedback: https://osu.ppy.sh/s/348235

woops, I let this get pretty backed up.

due to school and my lack of diligence, I'm going to close this queue.
the posts prior to this one will get looked at, and if they're still relevant I'll see what I can do.
I'm not sure if this queue will re-open or if I'll just keep it closed, that all depends on future me.

here's a list of the tools I use to do my various edits, in case anyone's interested (they're all free):

image editing
Paint.NET (no, it's not ms paint)

not quite as feature-rich as photoshop, but it's got just about everything necessary for most bg edits. the only thing I've ever wished it had was an alpha mask function of some sort, but that can be added in with plugins. I've used this for 100% of the images I've edited for osu.


GIMP

pretty much as feature-rich as photoshop, but I have no idea how to use it since I never attempted to learn it. I only ever used this program to save all my .jpg images. Paint.NET's options reagarding .jpg compression aren't nearly as in depth (i.e. they're non-existent), so sometimes it's really necessary to have a separate program just for exporting jpgs (mostly for images that contain vibrant colors).


ScriptPNG

This isn't actually an editing program, it's just a lightweight tool for lossless (or lossy, though I wouldn't recommend it) compression of .png images. png is a lossless image format, so most of the time it's rather large and .jpg is more suitable (at least where osu is concerned). However, images with mostly solid colors and little noise tend to play pretty well with png, so if you ever want to use a png image like this then it's best to run it through ScriptPNG in order to make it as small as possible.
video retrieval/light editing/rendering
Flash Video Downloader (firefox extension)

This extension allows for the retrieval of video files (and sometimes audio and other miscellaneous files). Videos from pretty much any video streaming site can be downloaded using this extension (notably youtube and niconico). Granted, this is only a firefox extension, but I'm sure a chrome equivalent exists somewhere.


Avidemux (sourceforge page)

this program can be used to encode the video and remove the audio tracks. It can also be used to do simple editing tasks like resizing, trimming, cropping, etc.

I've taken the liberty of putting together a super high-quality guide on how to simply use this program for osu's purposes.
here is that guide, gl
audio re-encoding/editing
Audacity

this program can be used for re-encoding audio to the standard 192 kbps mp3 that most osu maps use. it can also be used to edit the audio, if you so desire.


mp3DirectCut

this program allows for lossless editing of mp3s, so you don't have to re-encode just to add a trim or fade to an mp3. useful if the mp3 you want to edit is already 192 kbps or lower, and the edits you want to do are relatively simple.

just to be clear
