I thought you edited the PW sprite until I cross referenced it with mine. There was no color change in the hair.

Erm, I don't think that's an AAI Stile Vs. Slidescreen ^^"
It isn't fluid enough. Both are AA style, except for the size.
This is an AAI style Vs.Slidescreen:
(You can only see it properly with Firefox)

AAI Vs.Slidescreen slides a little bit even when the faces are already in the center of the screen ;)

I don't think the background moves along with the sprite itself. Not even on AA. Actually, I'm pretty sure the background doesn't move. I know mine isn't very smooth, but I'm using Easy GIF animator and I'm doing it very quickly so...

Actually, I don't know how you want me to do this mini-guide, but I'll try anyway...
Spoiler : Miniguide-Custom Zoom-in in your VS screen :
Well, we have our "zoom-in" and the "VS screen"... but we haven't the animation yet...
ImageImage

1-Ok then... Copy and paste your Zoom in the VS screen.
ImageImage
Note: Preferably align the vision approximately guiding you with the middle line of the VS screen.

2A-Now, just select the empty area with magic wand and press "Supr" in your sprite (This is only if your editor has a layers)
Image
2B- If your case you haven't any editor with layers you should do it manually with square selector.
Image

Well, if you decided use a screen without borders, you're finished already, but if you not... you need just a few steps more.
Image

3-Using the square selector or magic wand, select the border to erase the excess.
Image

4-Now, we're preparated to animate our VS screen, so just follow the indications by E.D.Revolution in his guide and it will be ok.

I've added the miniguide to my guide. Thanks for adding that in! :D
I've edited your guide to make it sound and read better in English. You should compare, so that you can improve your English. (Y tan que puedo superar en espanol. ja ja ja :D )

You may use it. I need to be credited, though, because it's my work.

But don't forget, that was also originally a request from me, you can use it for sure though (apparently there's an unwritten rule that if you want to use somebody's requested work, you have to not only get the original author, but the original requester's permission, which is some bull >=o)

I use GIMP and I put the fighting pose sprite to 150 by 40 and place it but it won't work. It just shows when I play it.
Can you make one to show how to do it on GIMP.

Never Mind. I got it. :calisto:

Win, you have to show us why you can't do it, show us what you have so far so we can see where you might have gone wrong :p

Don't tell me you can't do it. Tell me WHY you can't do it. It's not a hard sprite to make, and I have zero artistic skills, much less spriting skills. If you can't provide a reason, then I'm going to consider your post spam.
