I don't know how to organize my GFX pack

Postby Twisted4932 » Fri Sep 09, 2022 11:51 pm

I am working on my own GFX pack but I don't know if I'm doing it right. The folders are divided in "styles" (smb1, smb3, etc.), and under those folders are other folders with content (Example: "Expanded tileset", "Cute enemies") Next problem: I don't know if it's ok including recolors of some graphics. On one side making recolors is a waste of time, and I could include color palletes for those who want to change color of the original graphics. On the other hand I think including recolors could show how much dedication I had, and how those graphics would look with another colors. And finally I don't think it's a good idea making folders that contain only one or two graphics. I only need some suggestions; that GFX pack doesn't have to be 100% perfect.

as long as the categorization makes sense, i don't really see any problems that could arise, even if there are folders with only one or two images (people are just gonna copy what they need anyway and an extra few clicks aren't a huge deal). recolors of vanilla graphics are fine, but remember if you're recoloring someone else's custom graphics, you have to ask for permission first before including it in your own pack.

Thank you. I'll keep that in mind.
