Well I've finally decided to get around to putting up my animated icon templates for people to download and make their own. I've had a lot of people asking to have some made, or asking if i'd release the template, and so now I am.

You can download the template zip file here: www.trezhurisland.com/FA_downloads/.....oads/pokeball_icon.zip

Inside the zip file you'll find 2 PSD files:
1) the character base. this is where you make the pixelart work of your custom character and select your pokeball. Don't draw past the pink lines on the background otherwise part of you character will get cut off in the animation.
2) the animation base. Once you've made your character and selected your pokeball, flatten and copy those files into this animation base PSD and align them to the frame layers. All you then have to do is create an 8-frame animation displaying one frame at a time and you're done.

This template is NOT to be used by others as a way to make commission icons or any other way of making money off of this template. I'm putting it up here free for all to use and enjoy.
