Ok, heres the Tutorial.

1. I work with Adobe Photoshop, so you'll probs need that. Open your skin , and once your happy with you new skin move onto step 2.



2. Click on the 'Channles' tab - next to the list of layers and scroll down the list until you get to the channel labelled 'Alpha' .



3. Basically every part of the skin you want as a team colour should be coloured black and everything else white. The helmet in my case.



4. Not really needed this step. But you can colour the team part on your skin red. Like the original skins - only really there so you can edit it easily.



5. Save the skin as you usually would - normal options. And test ingame!



NOTE: If you are using Photoshop 7, then when you select the alpha channel make sure it looks like this before you save:



Please do not use the skin posted in this tutorial, as it was done for the Blitzkrieg 2 TC.
If you have any problems email me:

I selected off the areas I wanted to make a tream color.

I went into the alpha and made it and told it "Colors mask selected area" That mad it small area with black and a large area of white. Like yours. the colored red in the team color pointes and added the detail I wanted.

Then I saved the skin into the textures folder and ran the game. The new secyions were still white.
