Here is a shor manual that i made for the video, but mind that MrMonkeys's manual is more detailed and it will give you more info.Here it is:
1. You have to open a random pic.
2. Then you go to Image>Mode>Indexed.
3. You have to make "Use custom palette" active, then click on the rectangle, then go to the bottom right button witch says "Open the palette section dialog".Once you click it you'll see the palettes window. Right click one of the many palettes that are there and "click Import Palette".Then you need to make "Palette file" active by clicking the circle infront of it.Next you need to find the file "Minecraft.gpl" (it is in monkey's tutorial), by clicking the rectangle with the (none) sign in it. From there go to the folder where you put your file. When you load it click "Import" without making any changes in the current window. If you made everithing by the book you will see the palette in the palettes wondow(it is The first palette).
4. Ok we loaded the file. Now you have to put it in use.
Close the "Pallettes" and "indexed color conversion" windows.They need to be closed because indexed mode" has to refresh and load the existing patterns.
5. The actual "pixelising". Again go to Image>Mode>Indexed. But now when you click the "Use custom palette""button you will see the minecraft's pallete on top of the other.Go to color dittering and try all setings there. ENJOY.
6. To see the colors and their relevan color ingame cust go to "palettes window", mark minecraft.gpl and click button at the bottom left corner edit pallete.Remember to make the colims 31.

Oh $:-\$ but monkey said something about you converting it... Nvm

Mr.Monkey · April 09, 2011, 06:00:48 PM

there is a palette for photoshop too, but we still have to upload it

corourke70 · April 10, 2011, 12:51:08 AM

I am a noob at this....When i convert to the palette, all of the colors change! Help please?

Mr.Monkey · April 10, 2011, 01:02:33 AM

This only works for large pics, don't even bother with the smaller ones, unless it has very few colours.

Mr.Monkey · April 10, 2011, 08:40:46 AM

Palette for photoshop uploaded in the old zip, so just redownload that. I also put the links to toxics you-tube vids in the manual.

Just something else I feel I must share about spriting.
If you never sprited before, don't do it because of this. Spriting is an art, and this is just a tool to aid you. Untill I started working on the greyscale sprites, every single one of them was done with only my eyes as a guide. Please do not think spriting is easy, for it is not. If people need a videoguide to start up an image-editor, it's clearly not something they have done much before. Therefore I want to ask you, please try some yourself first, before you go using this.
