Peep peep peep
Translation:Hihiya (or so Bon says) this is Gilbird here, to bring you a tutorial on how to make (well, not make but rip) icons into dream maker

WITH PICTURES. OOOOOoooOOO

Lets get started.


Step 1
First and very important, you NEED A SPRITE SHEET. The best place to get them is here, at the Spriters resource http://www.spriters-resource.com/

Step 2
You need to HAVE PAINT. Also a very big step. open the sprite sheet in paint...

Now,we'll get back to that later.

Now lets open up byond, and make a new environment name it whatever you wish(it should also be located on the desktop).Why do you need An environment? Why, this is your ticket to making icon files,of course!!!

"Listen up! Let's say you drink too much strawberry milk and have to use the bathroom in the middle of the night. But it's cold outside your bed. You don't want to get up, but the urge to urinate is just too strong! You make up your mind to go! You run to the bathroom, stand in front of the toilet, and let loose! You think that all your life has led to this moment! But then you realize! It isn't the bathroom! You're still in bed! That feeling of lukewarm wetness spreads like wildfire! But you don't stop! You can't stop! That's what I'm talking about! That's the truth of the strawberry milk! Do you get it?!"

Ok, So I've decided to add on to this a bit
How to Make Icons Bigger

Note-There is an icon size rule. Too big,and you'll be asked to change it.

You see the top right corner with the numbers? I hope so. Edit those to the measurements you desire.
Posted Image

The first box is for across > the second,is for up ^


The way you can tell what numbers you need, is by going in to paint and doing the normal routine of using dotted rectangle box,and outlining the image you want to use.

Posted Image
see the number at the bottom? those will be the numbers you need. (may need to change a bit to add other movements)

This is how it should sort of look
Posted Image


Here is an example of a finished big icon

And thats it~ Hope this helps you out~

A) might I add that theres still an icon-size rule
B) You have the box size coordinates the wrong way. The first is > the second is ^

just pointing it out!
Good work elsewise

"Why is everything so technical, got me thinkin' mechanical, puffin' on those botanicals, every second so critical. Bored with the human language, pain beat on my mental. Messin' with chemicals, sick as the appetites of cannibals. Far away they shoot a laser from a computer- ricochets off a satellite panel to a missile silo in Cuba. Eyes behold catastrophe, foreseen by Nostradamus. The prophets peep the millennium age of the broken promise. More religions than park pigeons, the poor envy the rich and monetary decisions make pessimistic the vision. It's like the whole planet went off the deep end While I was sleepin'. Men be leapin off ledges, when their women leave for the weekend. Why?"
