[Sorry for the other one being deleted, my bad]

Intro
--------------------------------------

So im guessing you are looking at this thread to get into the Retexture channel, the best channel to be in if you want to have things published. Follow this thread, which will have lots of tips and tricks to help you get in, and be a better retexture-er.

Group: http://www.roblox.com/My/Groups.aspx?gid=27770

--------------------------------------

Step 1; Learn how to retexture. Basically, you are just saving the texture of a hat, editing it in a paint or photoshop program and replacing it with the old texture.

How to:

1. First, find the original texture of the hat you want to retexture, then save it to your computer. Open it up in an editing program and edit it as you wish. I prefer paint.net as a program, but thats my choice.

Heres an example to a original texture: http://www.roblox.com/RedPaintballMask-item?id=10130613

You can find this by putting the hat you want in your place using Edit Mode, and viewing the parts of you game using Explorer click on the + beside the hat, select mesh and in Properties you will see 2 main things.

MeshID = The number of the mesh, which is the hats shape. Dont mess with this.

TextureID = This is the texture, go to the end of this and find the numbers, like 10130613 and paste this into your browser after item?id=

Save the mesh from your browser, then edit.


Heres an example to an edited texture: http://www.roblox.com/paintball-item?id=21370755

2. Once you have finished editing it, simply upload it as a decal to ROBLOX.

3. Go back into edit mode and replace the numbers at the end of TextureID with the numbers on your newly uploaded decal, that should replace the old texture on the hat with your new one. If it didnt, you have done something wrong. Re read the steps and try again.



--------------------------------------

Step 2; Learning what and when to retexture hats

As we all know, things get old. Especially in fashion, which is technically what hats are considered on ROBLOX. We dont want 40 of the same hat, or gear.

Certain hats should not be published more than once, like the Dusekkar or OH NOES sign. Other hats, like the :( hats should not be published fast, which is why people still like them today. Dont you agree that those hats would be boring if one was made every week?

What im trying to get across is, only retexture certain hats at certain times (like christmas hats during christmas time, not at easter) and dont try to get a retexture published when one already has been a few days ago. It wont work.


--------------------------------------

Step 3; Submitting your retextures

Now if youve read this far, and think your good enough and ready to get into the Retexture artists channel, form a Set of your Top 10 best retextures. Message this set to either me, Hansolo996, Saveaseal13 or Brighteyes.

--------------------------------------

Step 4; Wait for a response

Any of the group admins should respond, and tell you what you are doing right and doing wrong. Dont take it the harsh way, but if we give you tips on how to do better were doing it so you CAN do better. We dont try to be mean, but were just trying to help you improve.

If you are seen well enough to join in our eyes, we will let you in. Just remember, not everybody gets in. If you are declined once, try again. Keep getting better. Improve.

--------------------------------------

Step 5; When in the group

If you get into the group, we have a few rules. First, no disrespecting others. It is ok to comment constructive criticism on peoples retextures, but no “omg u suk u r a nob at retexturing” type comments. That is harassment and just plain mean. Secondly, only post your best retextures on the wall, not all of them. If you were an admin, wouldn’t you only want the Top Quality for your users? Exactly. Those retextures that you know aren’t that good of yours shouldn’t be posted. The admin’s of ROBLOX only want the best. Thirdly, don’t keep reposting your retextures on the wall. We can tell when you delete your last post and post it again, and that isn’t fair to other group members. If the admins want to use it, they will use it. Lastly, use common sense. If there is something you shouldn’t be doing, don’t do it.

--------------------------------------

If you have any questions, feel free to ask them here or message me them.

Hope this guide helps you understand retexturing, and will bring out the artist in all of you!

I'm pretty good at retexturing. But I can't form sets, due to a site error. I use GIMP. Maybe I'll wait a few months until I get Photoshop.
