Seriously, how do you guys do such good designs? The skin editor on Wipeout-Game.com feels quite limited to me

Click the button with the paintbrush, next to the 16 color boxes. There, below it you'll see two icons next to a question mark. The two papers is Copy, and the one with the clipboard is Paste.
What I do is copy the previews from there and paste them into MS Paint and modify the color scheme as I please. Then, I copy them from PAINT and paste it into the EDITOR.
The Editor alone doesn't give many tools for flashy painting - for me, thats where Paint comes in. (for some around here, its probably where Photoshop or somethin' comes in )
Hope that helps.
Ahh , thanks Ace.
Im suprised no ones gone b3ta on the skins.... hopefully thats not igniting someones fuse!
Awesome designs.
does anyone have any other tips on making skins? anytihng to make it easier, etc etc... I'm not well-versed or capable when it comes to pixel artwork, so I can't easilly transcribe a design I may see in my head onto the flat image work area. Has anyone made some sort of program that will render the ship model (like on wipeout-game.com), which will let you copy and paste scaled images/etc directly onto the 3D model, and then generate the skin/texture file from that? Seems like a simple enough idea... think along the lines of the emblem feature in F-Zero GX....
Not a custom skin, per se, but I figure the best way to spark creativity (and the motivation to act on it) is to do things free-hand. I kinda made up my own Qirex logo that I'm gonna use whenever I try the ship skin thing.
That's a very cool scribble there, says alot about your personal style. I like!
i'm feeling uninspired with an overall theme/design for my AG-sys, but i'm sure in time i'll think of something clever. on a different note, but relative, i can't seem to import a skin into the online editor. i can pull the 2d image off no problme, quickly edit it, but not matter the filetype i can't get it to copy it back in at all. bitmap, jpg, png, nothing. i have it copied to my clipboard, but the paste button and pop up "is it ok" window do nothing. same ol' starting skin.... i don't understand.

WOW! That is... wow.
That is perfect. pixel by pixel, for sure!
D8 Omfg! That`s awesome! Sorry for the cursing lol.
Sweet as ... fingerlickingly nice blend of Wip3out style with HD.
Thanks for the feedback, fellows.
My next project will be a Wipeout 1 AG-SYS skin, brought up to date with sleeker paint lines and more intricate detail, to spice up the boring design of the original.

That skin is gorgeous, Flashback. Can hardly wait to see your F3600 version.
I second Medusa's post. Great skin there. I'd like to see someone do one of the skins from the intro movie to WO1. Some of those were pretty damn sweet.
here's some piranha skins
...and one more + goteki,s
