Sprite Help

okie doke il get to that but in my ff3 screen shot (i nearly got the last 2 job classes yay) the fighter has that hair style but in battle its like bartz's hair i made him like the original for zeemis's ff3 hack thats why i was "limiting" myself but umm what exactly is shading? is it the shadow? i doubt it do you mean more creative colours? since its my 1st il follow all your tips and make a prototype then i might make a proper 1 (cuase the original is a touch smaller isin't it?)
