Description:

You Will Need:

Transmogrifier (from now on called T-mog !) to clone a bookcase and export/ import the sprites of the new clone.
(You need basic knowleedge of that procedure as I am NOT gonna cover that !)

A paint program to decorate in! Such as Paint Shop Pro 7 , Photo Shop or Gimp etc.

Patience and time.

A Bookcase base to clone and decorate.

Images to decorate with.



As I am using Paint Shop Pro 7 myself, that is the program I am gonna be writing this tutorial on !!

I am also using one of my own bases: MBasebookcase2 wich can be found under
Single Base/ Bookcases. ! It is part of Bookcase bases set2.
Also there are DIY images to choose from!

Let Us start !:)
A: Open T-mog and Clone the Bookcase base- give it a new name !
You can find your new clone in the Downloads/ Transmogrified drawer in game!
(Remember this name as you will need it when importing the sprites back !)

B: Export "Just change colors" and save the sprites
to a folder on your computer so you easily can find them !


Starting with the p-sprites!
1: Now, close T-mog and Open up Paint Shop Pro 7 instead!
Find the folder and open up your p sprites - should be 2 - a front wiew and a back wiew!

They should look something like these:


2: Choose the Magic vand tool: and set the settings to:
.
(Matchmode: RGB value, Tolerance: 30 , Feather: 0 )

Click on the yellow background of the back sprite and little running ants should
appear around the yellow background wich now is choosen!
But we want the bookcase to be choosen so we use the tool invert selection to do that !
It is in the menue under:Selections.
First: and then :

3: Now we need to be able to use the 16 million colours / 24 bit mode so under the menue:Colors
we choose to Increase the color depth to 16 Million colors!
