Ok.

First things First

What skinning program do you use?

Do you have an Xfire or AIM?

And those really aren't that horrible. They're not good, but they're not horrible.

Yeah, I've seen much worse.

well ive been getting comments saying thta my skins rnt good so i want to know how i can make them AWESOME like some skins i see on this forums also i do have xfire USER:omegahalo
and i use HMT and paint.......or gimp..are those sucky?

I sent you a friend request on Xfire, accept it. I'll go more into detail there

MS Paint is what's screwin' you over. You need Adobe Photoshop or Paint.NET with the .DDS Plugins installed to skin properly.

thanks I installed photoshop and ye ill add you to xfire deadhamster tank you guys youve been good help

I think the scorpion skin looks just fine

it is a repeating texture. look at the center front of it. you will see what i mean.

From the front it doesn't look to bad though.
