i liked it
gave it a sense of balance in my mind.
it also changed up the gradient a little bit, since it was layer locked. makes it more colorful

hmm..I like. This might actually motivate me into makin another sprite tag.
but 2 questions:
1. how do move the sprite onto a new canvas when the sprite is in .gif?
2. (kinda off topic) how do u keep the .psd file size small?

If you learn to read, he wrote that in PS that there is such a gradient you can use.

1. Go to image>mode>switch it from Index to RGB
2. Usually saving it as .gif makes it small, as for a .psd file, beats me.

This tut is interesting. Nothing really new for me to learn, but makes me understand how to make sprite tags a bit.

get the crop tool and crop the PSD.
dont crop anything off the canvas if you dont want to, but just crop the canvas size and it will crop off anything off the canvas.
